Struggling to see the details of spectrum or waveform data due to sunlight or

other lighting conditions is a thing of the past. The AMS

2140’s glove-friendly touch screen features an auto light

sensor that adjusts the screen’s backlight to the ambient

lighting of the environment for optimal viewing. Visibility

is maintained as you move from one area of the plant to

another – from direct sunlight to darker interior locations.

A backlit keypad allows continued operation of the unit in

the darkest environments. In the office, the built-in stand

sets the unit at the best angle for viewing data. Charger and

communication cables are located at the top of the unit so

they do not interfere with the standing position.

Uninterrupted Route Collection. The AMS 2140 has the

longest battery life available in the market, which means no

more long trips back to the office to dump data or deal with

a dead battery. New Lithium-Ion batteries extend battery

life and route coverage to a full shift – maybe two – from a

single charge. If you do choose to change out the battery,

the unit is re-engineered to make the task simple enough

to accomplish even in the field. In addition, an external

charger allows you to charge a spare battery while you

continue to use your analyzer in the field. A car charger

option enables you to deliver a charge en route.

The AMS 2140 uses local hotspot availability to wirelessly

transfer data back to the office for quick analysis or from

remote locations to a centralized server. Your team can

perform route collection and analysis in parallel to maximize

your efficiency.

More Power That is Easy to Carry into the Field

Route data collection can be a long process – and you need

an analyzer that has the battery power to last an entire

shift and comfortable enough to carry around all day. The

AMS 2140 takes advantage of ergonomic principles and

advanced engineering to address these needs. This thinner,

lighter analyzer is comfortable to carry on long routes and

operate with one hand. The shoulder strap has a large,

slip-proof padded area to reduce friction on the neck and

back. Connecting the strap is as simple as the push of a

button, making it easy to quickly reconfigure for left-or right-hand users.

Visibility in Any Environment.

Embedded Intelligence

The ability to perform additional diagnostic tests at the

machine site transforms simple data collection into an

effective machinery health program. In today’s demanding

work environment, it is difficult to find the time to acquire

advanced analysis skills. Embedded intelligence, enabled

through Analysis Experts, allow even a novice user to

conduct sophisticated troubleshooting tests with the

touch of a button. Technicians don’t need to remember

the complexity of setting up a test they only perform a few

times a year – yet they can gain the benefit of its diagnostics

when needed. The bottom line impact is that users can

quickly do more in the field with the AMS 2140. avoiding

further deterioration of equipment condition.

Monitor More Machines in Less Time Using True

Four-Channel. Using a triaxial accelerometer, the AMS

2140 simultaneously collects vertical, horizontal, and

axial readings on a bearing. Place the sensor on the

measurement point, press the button, and when collection

is complete move on to the next bearing. Data collection

time is reduced by as much as 50% compared to other

vibration collectors. Faster data collection translates into

less time in harsh or hazardous environments, more

machines monitored, and more time dedicated to higher

value tasks like analysis and diagnostics.

Four-Channel Data Collection Enables Powerful

Diagnostic Options. Perform additional advanced

diagnostics and deeper dive diagnostic tests using four

channel collection. With four-channel monitoring, you

will gain additional data and diagnostic tools to help

you identify the root cause of your toughest equipment

problems. For example,

• View dual orbit plots, one on either side of the coupling

or dual orbit plots of both sleeve bearings on a turbine,

fan, or other production asset to see how the shaft is

moving in relation to the bearing races.

• Collect ODS Modal data 66% faster to animate

physical movement of machinery, an important tool

in identifying the root cause of chronic or complex

machinery problems.

Having the information you need for advanced diagnostics

faster allows you to move more quickly towards identifying

machinery faults or determining if it is safe to continue

startup of turbo machinery.

The Four-Channel Advantage

While the AMS 2140 is available in single and dual channel

options, it is the four-channel option that delivers the most

advantages to a predictive maintenance program. The

AMS 2140 is one of the fastest collectors in the industry

when collecting a measurement point. With four-channel

capabilities, speed through the data collection route is

increased even more. And unlike other four-channel units

on the market, the AMS 2140 delivers all four channels

when you need them the most – critical equipment startup

and troubleshooting diagnostics.

Having the information you need for advanced diagnostics

faster allows you to move more quickly towards identifying

machinery faults or determining if it is safe to continue

startup of turbo machinery.

Emerson’s AMS 2140 Machinery Health Analyzer was designed specifically with these goals in mind.

Upload route data and corrective maintenance jobs from the field to AMS Machine

Works for analysis and reporting or push updates to AMS 2140 units in the field using

assisted smart routes.

Alerts generated in AMS Machine Works can be exported automatically to AMS Optics where they are

combined with alerts from other monitored plant assets to provide a unified view of your plant’s health.

Together, the AMS 2140 and asset performance management tools deliver

the predictive intelligence necessary for increasing availability and reliability in the plant.

Overview

In today’s economy, plants are continually looking for ways to remain competitive in the market place.

For maintenance departments, this often translates into fewer staff and smaller budgets.

In this do-more-with-less environment,maintenance personnel can’t afford to continuously chase

the next breakdown. They need to quickly and accurately identify developing faults and determine the

root cause of the machinery problem so it can be fixed.

The AMS 2140 is the next generation in a family of industry-leading vibration analyzers and data

collectors from Emerson. As with previous models, the AMS 2140 can provide:

• Route vibration collection

• Advanced vibration analysis

• Cross-channel analysis

• Transient analysis

• Dynamic balancing

• Motor monitoring

• ODS modal analysis

In addition to providing fast, actionable information, an effective solution must take advantage of modern

communication and interface innovations that make tasks easier and more intuitive.

Emerson’s AMS 2140 Machinery Health Analyzer was designed specifically with these goals in mind.

Versatile advanced diagnostics improve machine health

The AMS 2140 offers the industry’s most complete set of features to quickly

and accurately assess the health of rotating machinery.

Even the most complex machinery in your facility. With the AMS 2140

You can perform single-, dual-, or quad-channel vibration analysis,

cross-channel analysis, transient analysis, structural analysis, balancing, and motor monitoring.

The analyser’s embedded intelligence guides you through advanced diagnostic tools,

providing pre-configured menus and preset technology settings.

Troubleshooting documentation in the AMS 2140 helps with initial analysis,

and AMS Suite integrates with the analyser for more in-depth analysis of data.

Take only one tool to the field

When you head out to the field on a collection mission, you don’t want to have to carry multiple tools.

The AMS 2140 provides you with a single platform that enables you to perform a wide range of machine

health tests.

Balancing, temperature trending, and motor diagnostic functions coexist with vibration analysis tools.

Data from all of these tests is loaded into a database that allows you to trend the data from the various

tests.

This gives you a more complete picture of the machine’s condition and predicts when corrective

maintenance is required.

The AMS 2140 is suitable for a wide range of rotating equipment, including variable speed machines,

complex gearboxes,

low speed equipment, turbomachinery, sleeve bearings, gearboxes, and more.

equipment, turbomachinery, sleeve bearing machinery and reciprocating compressors.
