OUR RESONANCE
Resonance describes the phenomenon of increased amplitude that occurs when a
an external force or a vibrating system is equal or close to a natural
frequency of the system on which it acts. Leveraging decades of experience in
earthquake analysis and monitoring of mining seismicity, Viotel have a deep
understanding of resonance and have developed a unique series of asset
management solutions involving monitoring and analysis of vibrations and
waveforms.
The Viotel Vibrating Wire Node achieves high-precision measurements with low
power consumption at a cost effective price. The node is self-contained with
internal battery, GPS and cellular (CatM1) modem. The node is shipped pre-
programmed and integrated. Simply mount, connect the external sensor(s) and
power on for reliable, continuous, real-time monitoring.
