Vibration diagnostics directly in the field
15 August 2025
NEW FROM ifm, the VSE9xx diagnostic system is designed to bring advanced vibration diagnostics directly to the field, monitoring and maintaining machine health, and enabling greater efficiency and minimising costly downtime.

With its robust IP 67-rated housing, the VSE9xx is purpose-built for deployment in demanding environments, eliminating the need for control cabinet installations. This allows the system to deliver accurate, real-time evaluations of up to four dynamic signals, such as acceleration, while seamlessly capturing critical additional data like speed and temperature. The result? A more comprehensive view of machine health that empowers businesses to act proactively, maintain operational continuity, and reduce the risk of unexpected failures.
Designed with simplicity and versatility in mind, the VSE9xx diagnostic system is compatible with all common acceleration sensors and connects effortlessly using industry-standard M12 connection cables. This feature ensures an error-free installation process while safeguarding against tough external conditions. It also supports retrofitting, making it an ideal choice for integrating advanced condition monitoring capabilities into existing installations, further saving time, space, and budget.
Beyond its technical strengths, the VSE9xx bridges the gap between automation and IT networks with integrated separation, enhancing data security and communication reliability. The system’s ability to provide precise, decentralised diagnostics translates into actionable data for operators and decision-makers, fostering smarter strategies for predictive maintenance and operational efficiency at scale.
