Turck’s CMVT-M8T

Simplify Condition Monitoring with Turck’s Compact CMVT-M8T

Efficient & Scalable Vibration Monitoring – Ready for Retrofit or New Equipment. We are proud to introduce the CMVT-M8T – a powerful single-axis condition monitoring sensor designed to make machine health diagnostics simple, precise, and scalable.

Housed in a compact stainless steel body, the CMVT-M8T enables reliable vibration monitoring of motors, pumps, and fans. Its easy installation via an M8 screw-in thread, compatibility with multiple output types, and adherence to ISO 10816-3 standards make it a top choice for both new systems and retrofit applications.

Key Features at a Glance

  • Single-axis vibration detection – ideal for motors, pumps, and fans
  • Three output types: IO-Link, PNP switching, and 4–20 mA analog
  • Quick install via M8 screw-in thread with adapter up to M30
  • ±0.5% measurement accuracy at 159.2 Hz
  • Delivers RMS and peak acceleration values
  • Pre-processing onboard – no control system required
  • Use standalone with TAS (Turck Automation Suite) or IO-Link master

Standalone Monitoring – Without a Controller

No PLC? No problem. The CMVT-M8T supports controller-less setups, enabling autonomous monitoring through the Turck Vibration Monitor App or a web interface via IO-Link. Ideal for existing machines, this gives you real-time warnings with simple integration of a signal light or indicator.

Part of a Powerful Condition Monitoring Family

The CMVT-M8T joins Turck’s robust sensor suite, which includes:

  • CMVT-QR20: 3-axis vibration & temperature sensor
  • CMMT: Magnetic field & temperature sensor
  • CMTH: Humidity & temperature sensor

Together, these smart sensors offer a modular and scalable solution for any industrial condition monitoring challenge.

Turck’s CMVT-M8T single-axis condition monitoring sensor enables efficient vibration monitoring – easy to install and retrofit

Turck’s CMVT-M8T in a compact stainless steel housing uses vibration measurement to monitor the condition of motors and drives. With single-axis measurement, easy installation in the service bore via M8 screw-in thread including mounting adapter up to M30 and three selectable output signals, the sensor ensures precise vibration monitoring with minimum installation effort.

Flexible integration saves costs

The CMVT-M8T detects vibrations along one axis and is therefore suitable for typical applications on drives, pumps or fans where the main direction of vibration is orthogonal to the axis of rotation. With IO-Link, PNP switching and 4…20 mA analog outputs, the condition monitoring sensor can be used universally and thus effectively reduces inventory costs. The measuring accuracy is ±0.5 % at 159.2 Hz. The sensor also provides peak acceleration values in addition to effective values (RMS).

Standalone monitoring made easy

The device can also be commissioned without a connection to a controller using the Vibration Monitor app in the Turck Automation Suite (TAS) or via an IO-Link master with a web server. In combination with a warning light, autonomous condition monitoring systems can easily be set up without a controller, which is particularly useful in existing systems. The sensor complies with ISO standard 10816-3 for the entry of critical vibration values.

Condition monitoring sensor family

The new 1-axis sensor is the fourth sensor type developed by Turck specifically for easy-to-use and retrofittable condition monitoring applications. It extends the existing range consisting of the CMVT-QR20 3-axis vibration/temperature sensor, the CMMT magnetic field/temperature sensor and the CMTH for humidity and temperature measurements.

Key Function

  • M8 screw-in thread
  • 1-axis vibration measurement 
  • IO-Link, PNP and 4 …20mA
  • Vibration Monitor in TAS
