Physical condition (visual inspection)

+ Vibrationmite
Vibration
Allrotating machinery vibrates. If you place your hand on a retating
‘mactine you will fal the vibrations. These vibrations provide usstul
information about the condition of the machine.
‘The forces that cause damage in a machine act between the ralating
parts. These forces are measured by monitoring the vibrations on tha
outside of tho machina as tha innar forces and outer vibrations are
interrelated via a transfer function called motility
‘A body is said to vibrate wnen &
performs an oscilating mation
about a reference position The
number of times a complote motion
cgyle takes place during the period
cf one second is cailed ine
frequency and is measured in hertz

Vibration
Vibrations are measured in
“Displacement (um)
Velocity (mmis)
“Acceleration (g, mio?Quantifying the vibration level
‘The vibration amplitude (level) describes the severity of the
vibration and may be evaluated in several ways.

The benefits
Simple permanent vibration monitoring
What don’t you getThe best economical solution:
Use the service contract and consultants io ear about the stats of the

Anarrov-band measurement expresses the "aneray content” of
the machine's components. The purpose of a frequonoy analysie
isto break down the vibration signal ino its conterts of iniviouel
frequencies. A narrow-band measurement can be shown ina
‘vibration spectrum in which all the foreas acting within the
machine are represenies by a peak value.
Narrowband
