Vibration Transmitter Selection Guidance

This webinar will begin with the basics of vibration transmitter selection, such as acceleration vs. velocity, output calculation types, and full-scale range. Depending on the application, ideal measurements may be overall vibration, frequency banding, pre-processing or dual output of dynamic data.

Bearing Failure Modes and Monitoring

Detecting bearing failure modes at higher frequencies, and earlier in their progression, is key to extending the bearing life and ensuring the reliability of a machine. Bearing failure generally progresses through four main stages and across a wide range of frequencies.

Bearing Precision Lubrication and CBM using Vibration Monitoring and Ultrasound Detection

Under- and over-lubrication contributes to 40-70% of bearing failures. Precision lubrication can be achieved with ultrasound analysis and supported with vibration root cause analysis. Ultrasound monitoring can be used to hear and analyze the friction index of each bearing, indicate the precise amount of lubrication required, and extend the life of the bearing.

Intrinsically Safe Vibrations Sensors Enable Condition Monitoring in Hazardous Locations

Vibration monitoring is essential for predictive maintenance of rotating machinery. This is no less true in hazardous locations, and certified sensors designed for these locations are readily available. Below, we’ll focus on Intrinsically Safe sensors, which meet the requirements for hazardous locations found in chemical processing facilities, refineries, mills, and other facilities where flammable materials are processed or handled...

Techniques for Sensor Validation and Troubleshooting

Validating and troubleshooting vibration sensor setup and performance is an important part of ensuring an effective vibration monitoring system. If a sensor is not working correctly, or if a sensor is not mapped to the correct measurement point, the accuracy of the information is compromised...

Accelerometer Hermeticity

At its core, hermeticity refers to a seal or closure being complete and airtight. There are different levels of hermeticity, though, depending on the quality of the seal, and the only way to measure is through a leak test, usually performed with helium.
