Accelerometer for machine monitoring

I am looking for an accelerometer we can use for motor condition monitoring. Which one would you recommend ?

In this case you probably have to take aliasing effects into account. Aliasing is a well-known problem for condition monitoring of “vibrating�? industrial machinery incl. motors. Our ISM330DLC might be a good choice because it features a low-pass antialiasing filter.

For evaluation of ISM330DLC sensor you might consider to take a look at our STEVAL-BFA001V1B which is an industrial reference design kit designed for condition monitoring (CM) and predictive maintenance (PdM).
