BPK vs Structural Floor Vibration
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
BPK
This utility app measures common mode voltage on motor shafts to assess bearing discharge risk. It can also test the performance of bearing protection solutions, recording and maintaining readings for analysis.
- Measures common mode voltage on motor shafts
- Assesses risk of discharge through motor bearings
- Tests performance of bearing protection solutions
- Records and maintains readings
- Complete kit for testing

Shaft Voltage Detection Device Helwig Carbon’s Shaft Voltage Detection Device otherwise known as the BPK-Probe™ is an instrument designed to measure common mode voltage on a motor shaft and determine the risk of discharge through the motor bearings. It also has the capability to switch in Helwig’s Bearing Protection solution. This feature allows the user to measure the performance of our grounding device and the risk of further damage to the motor bearings once installed. The BPK-Probe™ comes as part of a complete kit including everything you need to test motor shafts or other devices where damaging discharges may be present. This Mobile App is offered as a solution to record and maintain readings
Structural Floor Vibration
This utility app measures and records floor vibrations using your device's accelerometer. It helps users evaluate vibration levels and compare them against established engineering criteria for steel-framed structures.
- Measure floor vibration
- Record vibration data
- Evaluate vibration levels
- Compare amplitudes to criteria
- Uses device accelerometer

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Structural Floor Vibration at 5.0 against BPK's 4.2. Structural Floor Vibration also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). BPK's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Structural Floor Vibration holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BPK has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
