RE: can one accelerometer monitor two directions vibration on bearing house?

Biaxial accelerometers are not very common, especially with ICP or IEPE power. Tri-axial accelerometers are common, but more limited and expensive than single axis accelerometers. Acceleration output can be integrated to get velocity or displacement. Are you looking at permanent or walk-around accelerometers?
