Applications
Vibration monitoring is a common and proven technique used to monitor the condition of machines and predict and prevent failures:
-
Rotating machinery
Vibration monitoring is often used to monitor rotating machinery like fans, pumps, motors, and compressors. It can help identify faults like misalignment, imbalance, looseness, and bearing wear.
-
Reciprocating machinery
Vibration monitoring can be used to monitor reciprocating machinery like piston engines, pumps, and reciprocating compressors.
Industries:
- Power Generation: For gas and steam turbines, generators, and compressors in power plants.
- Oil and Gas: Used in offshore platforms, refineries, and processing plants to monitor pumps, compressors, and other critical equipment.
- Mining and Minerals Processing: For monitoring large motors, mills, and crushers.
- Chemical and Petrochemical Plants: To protect critical compressors, pumps, and other process equipment.
- Pulp and Paper: In paper mills to monitor large rotating machinery involved in the manufacturing process.
