Impact vs Impact - Comparison of different filter modes for vibration monitoring Join us in this video as we explore various filter modes under critical conditions and uncover their benefits. Our focus will center on the 0 to 2 kHz and 2 to 7 kHz filter modes from an [...]
Axial Thrust Bearing - Long Term Issue on Gearbox This case study is about an axial thrust bearing failure in an extruder gearbox and how we kept it alive for several months. This gives the customer time which was required to prepare the maintenance and allows to keep the [...]
Condition monitoring specialties for Hyper compressors In this video we will explain the bathtub effect. We will have insides from a laboratory test where we checked the influence of temperatures that affected the measured values. The results from the experimental setup will allow us to explain heat effects on [...]
Practical introduction in sensor basics and sensor locations on a reciprocating compressor Tobias and Dominique explain the standard measuring loops used on a reciprocating compressor. They will start with a first overview of the monitored machine and will explain each single measuring loop from the measuring principle to the [...]
Threshold adjustment when operating conditions are changing The advantage of flexible reciprocating machines is the disadvantage when monitoring such machines. Changing load conditions will result in changing vibration behaviors what will require the use of adaptable warning thresholds. In this video, you will get an understanding of the specialties [...]
How to calculate the cable length between sensor and data acquisition unit Wolfgang explains today which aspects need to be considered for the used cable length between sensor and data acquisition unit regarding signal quality. He explains why the recommended standard cable length is 300 m or 1000 feet [...]
