Axiomatization Decision Log
1
Identity-Giving Function
Function class
VibrationTransmissionFunction
⊑ DesignedFunction
Realized in
VibrationMeasurementAndTransmissionProcess
⊑ MeasurementProcess
The identity-giving function is to measure vibration parameters and transmit a proportional output signal. This is distinct from general SignalTransmissionFunction as it specifically involves vibration measurement and conversion to an electrical/pneumatic signal proportional to the measured vibration amplitude, frequency, or acceleration.
2
Genus Determination
Transmitter
From parent_candidates, 'transmitter' is already enriched in our ontology with function SignalTransmissionFunction. This is the most specific appropriate superclass - vibration transmitter is a specialized type of transmitter that measures and transmits vibration-related signals. PROCESS VARIABLE TRANSMITTER would be more specific but is not yet enriched in our system.
3
Necessary Parts
No necessary parts recorded (concept may be primitive at this level).
These parts are essential for any vibration transmitter: sensor for detection, signal conditioner for processing, and housing for protection and mounting.
4
Process Participation Signature ⟨I, O, T⟩
Inputs (I)
VibrationMeasurementResult
— mechanical vibration from monitored equipment
Outputs (O)
InformationContentEntity
— standardized signal (4-20mA, 0-10V) proportional to vibration magnitude
Transformation (T)
mechanical vibration measurement and conversion to proportional electrical signal
Vibration transmitters convert mechanical vibration inputs into standardized electrical output signals for monitoring and control systems.
5
Axiom Mode Decision
Necessary + Sufficient
— modelled as a defined class
(≡, EquivalentClass). Automatic classification is
appropriate for this concept.
Disjointness Axioms
pressure transmitter
temperature transmitter
flow transmitter
C2: pressure transmitter, temperature transmitter, flow transmitter. These transmitter types have incompatible process signatures - they measure mutually exclusive physical parameters (vibration vs pressure vs temperature vs flow) and cannot be realized by the same instance simultaneously.
Cross-Standard Observations
ISO 15926 provides a more structured definition with explicit inheritance from both PROCESS VARIABLE TRANSMITTER and VIBRATION MEASURING INSTRUMENT, while CFIHOS focuses on the proportional output characteristic. Both definitions align on the core function of vibration measurement and transmission.
