Steam Turbine Vinration Monitoring

[bigbb]

Hi all, need your advices.Small power plant , 3 steam turbines (13KW each) Have to find solution for vibration protection and prediction monitoring. Plant is switching over to DeltaV.
Emerson has a solution for everything, but it is very very expensive (more then 300k just for vibrations for 3 turbines) Please bring your ideas. Who else can do it with implementation to DeltaV

Thanks
BB

DeltaV will take analog or data over comms from any of these (and many others), just not their "standard".
