Issue R · June 2026. Specification subject to change without notice.
A starter lab kit to enable a faster turnaround time for developing condition-monitoring solutions. Configure and read data from sensors before having to write a line of custom code.
BluVib Lab Kit — Raspberry Pi 5 gateway, BluVib-M-A sensor and the ReST API browser interface

Supplied products may differ from images shown, as they are for illustration purposes only.

Overview

A gateway running Linux, configured with the Sensor-Works ReST API, lets you set up sensors and read, store and export vibration and temperature data. Supplied with supporting files and documentation.

High performance

Outstanding measurement capability for verifying setups and sensor measurements.

Development starter

Configure and read data from sensors before writing custom code. Verify, test and control sensors during code development.

Rugged

Suitable for harsh industrial conditions; the sensor is corrosion resistant. Drop test 1.8 m (6 ft), water and dust resistant (IP65).

Wireless operation

Sensors developed with low-power radio and power management, ensuring long battery life.

What’s included

Simple development start-up

Verify setups and sensor measurements.
1

Set up the sensor configuration via the API

Apply operating mode, sample rate and trace length.
2

Fix sensors to your machine or test rig

Use a magnet, or screw to a mount.
3

Wake the sensor using the "ON Key" magnet

Provided in the kit.
4

Read, view and export sensor data

Vibration and temperature, via the built-in browser interface.
5

Power down sensors between development stages

Preserve battery life while not measuring.

ReST API web interface

A built-in interface accessed from a browser. Sensors appear in the Devices list and can be added to the whitelist.

Gateway

Raspberry Pi 5, pre-loaded with the Sensor-Works ReST API application.

Sensor

BluVib-M-A — MEMS triaxial vibration & temperature sensor, aluminium base. For the full sensor specification, see the BluVib-M3 datasheet.
