The deterioration of each of these elements will generate one or more characteristic
failing frequencies in the frequency spectra that will allow us a quick and easy
identification. The four possible bearing failing frequencies are:
BPFO (Ball Pass Frequency Outer) or outer race failing frequency. Corresponds
physically to the number of balls or rollers that pass through a given point of the
outer race each time the shaft makes a complete turn.
BPFI (Ball Pass Frequency Inner) or inner race failing frequency. Corresponds
physically to the number of balls or rollers that pass through a given point of the
inner track each time the shaft makes a complete turn.
