PCA chose the Instantel Series IV Advanced Vibration Monitor for remote vibration monitoring at the WTC site. The system includes the vibration monitor, a triaxial geophone and battery-power supplies as well as a serial 3G modem to allow cellular data transmission. The noise and vibration monitoring system documents source levels and remotely transmits data in real-time to a project-specific server, via cellular technology. The off-site server is located within the PCA office. Data modules were written to provide specific processing and data intake routines to interpret data generated by the WTC on-site noise and vibration monitoring system. Within each created module, routines were added to sense and detect any conditions that warrant alerts or special processing. ER -
