Robertshaw 6000-102 Vibration Switch
The Robertshaw 6000-102 is a vibration switch designed for industrial electrical control and automation systems. It operates on a 24VDC supply with an SPDT contact rated from .5 to 7 amps. The unit monitors vibration across a frequency range of 0 to 300 Hz. Its transparent aluminum enclosure carries UL and c-UL certification for hazardous locations.
Suits machinery protection and malfunction detection
This switch suits engineers needing to detect excessive vibration on rotating or reciprocating equipment within a horizontal range up to 4.5 G and vertical range up to 3.5 G. It supports remote electrical or manual reset after a trip event. The device is rated for ambient temperatures from -13 to 143 F. Buyers requiring wireless connectivity, data logging, or network integration should look elsewhere as this is a standalone electromechanical safety device.
Mounts directly to equipment for local shutdown
The switch measures 6 inches in length and width with a height of 5.13 inches, allowing direct mounting on machine frames or bearing housings. Its Class I, Division 1, Groups B, C, and D enclosure rating permits installation in hazardous areas without additional purge systems. The SPDT output wires into existing safety relay circuits or PLC input modules, freeing the control panel from dedicated vibration monitoring hardware.

Questions about this item
What existing 24VDC circuit must be available to power the 6000-102 vibration switch?
A 24VDC supply rated for at least .5 to 7A is required to operate the SPDT contacts within their specified current range.
How does the 0 to 300 Hz frequency range affect monitoring of older rotating equipment running below 300 Hz?
The switch detects vibration across the full 0 to 300 Hz band, so machinery operating at lower speeds remains within the detectable range.
How can I verify the 6000-102 is functioning after wiring the remote electrical reset?
Apply a known vibration within the 4.5 G horizontal or 3.5 G vertical limits and confirm the SPDT contacts change state, then trigger the remote reset to ensure the switch returns to its normal position.
