Things Every Vibration Analyst Hates to Hear!

Every analyst has a few things they really don't want to hear during the course of their work. These comments often indicate that proper maintenance
activities have not been performed on the equipment, or convey unrealistic expectations of the analyst's abilities. For instance:

  • "It has always run like that!"
  • "It really was

 

Emerson’s Wireless Condition Monitoring and Prediction System Reduces Plant Downtime and Maintenan

Online vibration monitoring of pumps identifies potential problems earlier, enabling planned maintenance and greater plant availability

LORD MicroStrain Introduces New Wireless High-Speed Vibration Monitoring Node

LORD Corporation MicroStrain® Sensing Systems – a global leader in developing embedded sensing systems for aerospace and industrial markets – has introduced the IEPE-Link™-LXRS® wireless high-speed vibration monitoring node. The IEPE-Link samples raw data from industry standard piezoelectric IEPE-type accelerometers and transmits it wirelessly via a 2.4 GHz radio.

MSS Releases New High-Temperature Vibration Sensors

Meggitt’s Wilcoxon Research® HT (high temperature) series of vibration sensors provides reliable, continuous output for condition monitoring applications where temperatures reach 150° C. The high performance sensors are field-tested with mean time before failure (MTBF) of 25 years. Wilcoxon sensors provide continuous cost savings through affordability and reliability.

The Perfect Pair: Shock Pulse and Vibration Monitoring Combo Pays Off at Boliden Mine

by Tim Sundström

IN THE MINING INDUSTRY – one of the most capital-intensive industries in the world – preventive maintenance makes good business sense. In a process involving high costs and specialized equipment, the grinding mill is not only the most energy-consuming processing unit, it is also a highly critical application. It stands to reason that optimizing this bottleneck is of pivotal interest to the industry. Swedish mining company Boliden successfully combines a shock pulse measurement technique and vibration analysis to do just that.

Wireless Vibration Analysis Made More Comfortable

Machinery Health Monitoring Depends on Accelerometers - PART 3: Calibrating Accelerometers

by Wayne Tustin

This is Part 3 of a five-part series. Part 1 (Uptime Oct/Nov 2013) dealt with the mechanical aspects of using accelerometers, while Part 2 (Uptime Dec/Jan 2014) addressed the electronic aspects of dealing with those small signals. Part 3 is intended for machine monitoring users of accelerometers and deals with calibrating accelerometers to determine their sensitivity.
