Mechanical properties/ environmental conditions: | Dimension | 32 x 20 x 10 mm | | --- | --- | | IP Rating | IP67, IP68\*, IP69K\* | | Operating Temperature | 0....70°C | | Weight | 30 g | | Material | Housing: Stainless steel,  Membrane: ePTFE with nylon fleece\*\* |   2. Interface IO-Link Version 1.1: | Speed  | COM3 (230.4 kBaud) | | --- | --- | | Process data cycle time min. | 10 ms |   3. Display: | 2 LEDs in green and orange\*\* | | --- |   (Please note: \*The specifications refer to the BCM0001; \*\*The specifications refer to the BCM0002) ![ACM 1](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/hs-fs/hubfs/ACM%201.png?width=383&name=ACM%201.png)   The **important technical features** of Balluff's condition monitoring sensors:  1. Multiple measurements 2. Data preprocessing 3. Events/ status indications 4. Flexible process data 5. Compact design  6. Stainless steel housing 7. IO-Link interface 8. M12 connector ![CM 2](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/hs-fs/hubfs/CM%202.png?width=688&name=CM%202.png)   The **characteristics of the *vibration modules*** are as follows: 1. Vibration: - Data acquisition: | Measuring range |  ± 16 g | | --- | --- | | Resolution  | 0.5 mg | | Frequency range | 2...3,200 Hz  (Sampling rate: 6,400 Hz) | - Data processing: | Vibration velocity  \[per measuring axis + magnitude\] | RMS, Mean, Standard Deviation, Peak to Peak, Crest Factor, Kurtosis, Skewness | | --- | --- | | Vibration acceleration \[per measuring axis + magnitude\] | RMS, Peak to Peak | - Data evaluation: | Monitoring of the vibration velocity in our four freely selectable severity zones (based on DIN ISO 10816-3). Configurable thresholds for **pre-** and **main alarms** for RMS values of acceleration (a-RMS) or velocity (v-RMS) in three axis and magnitude. | | --- | ![ACM 3](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/hs-fs/hubfs/ACM%203.png?width=322&name=ACM%203.png) 2. Vibration Velocity: | Measuring range RMS  | 0...220 mm/s\* | | --- | --- | | Resolution RMS | 0.42 mm/s\* | | Measurement error RMS |  ± 5 % FS\* | | Linearity deviation RMS |  ± 2 % FS\* |   3. Vibration Acceleration:  | Measuring range RMS  | 0...16 g | | --- | --- | | Resolution RMS | 0.006 g\* | | Measurement error RMS |  ± 5 % FS\* | | Linearity deviation RMS |  ± 2 % FS\* |   (Please note: \*The quantities are frequency dependent and were determined at a reference of 79.4 Hz.; Statistical values and axis-dependent events (threshold monitoring with pre- and main alarms.) ![ACM 7](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/hs-fs/hubfs/ACM%207.png?width=438&name=ACM%207.png)   Below you will find the **characteristics of the *environmental modules***:  1. Temperature:  | Measuring range  | 0...70 °C   | | --- | --- | | Resolution  | 0.1 °C   | | Measurement error  |  ± 2 % FS\* | | Linearity deviation  |  ± 0.75 % FS\* |   2. Humidity: | Measuring range  | 5...95 % RH | | --- | --- | | Resolution  | 1 % RH | | Linearity deviation  | ± 2.5 % FS |   (Please note: Due to temperature influences, the evaluation of the absolutely measured variable is not useful. Therefore, the measurement error is not specified. Statistical values (e.g. minimum, maximum) & events (threshold monitoring with lower and upper alarms.)   ![ACM 5](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/hs-fs/hubfs/ACM%205.png?width=413&name=ACM%205.png)   3. Ambient pressure:  | Measuring range  | 300...1100 hPa | | --- | --- | | Resolution  | 0.15 hPa | | Linearity deviation  | ± 0.1 % FS |   (Please note: The sensor is designed to detect changes and not to interpret the absolute measured value. For this reason, the measurement error is not specified. Statistical values (e.g. minimum, maximum) & events (threshold monitoring with lower and upper alarms.) ![ACM６](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/hs-fs/hubfs/ACM%EF%BC%96.png?width=404&name=ACM%EF%BC%96.png)   [Learn more about Balluff's condition monitoring sensors](https://www.balluff.com.cn/local/us/productfinder/#/ca/A0001/cg/G0119)   - [Application](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/en/index/application?hsLang=en) - [Basic Knowledge](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/en/index/basic-knowledge?hsLang=en) - [Installation](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/en/index/installation?hsLang=en) - [Sales FAQs](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/en/index/sales-faqs?hsLang=en) - [Selection](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/en/index/selection?hsLang=en) - [Function consultancy](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/en/index/function-consultancy?hsLang=en) - [Commissioning](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/en/index/commissioning?hsLang=en) - [Default HubSpot Blog](https://blog.innovatingautomation.asia/blog) [![BALLUFF](https://kb.innovatingautomation.asia/hs-fs/hubfs/Balluff%20LOGO/Balluff_Logo.png?width=200&height=43&name=Balluff_Logo.png "BALLUFF")](http://www.balluff.com.cn) Balluff Automation Copyright © 2026, Balluff Automation (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
