ABSTRACT:
A drive train assembly and monitoring system for indicating the operating condition of the drive train assembly includes a drive train assembly having a power distribution device for distributing rotative power within the drive train. A sensor is attached to a portion of the drive train assembly, the sensor being responsive to the vibration of the portion or component of the drive train assembly for generating signals indicative of the sensed vibration. A controller receives the signals from the sensor and generates an indication of the operating condition of the drive train assembly based on the vibration of the portion of the drive train assembly. Preferably the sensor is adapted to detect both the frequency and magnitude of vibration of the drive train assembly and to generate signals indicative of the sensed frequency and magnitude of vibration.
