For facilities just getting started with a condition monitoring program, pumps are an excellent candidate. Pump condition monitoring can track changes in vibration and temperature. This makes it possible to detect potential faults early, so that maintenance…
What is an Accelerometer? Accelerometers are transducers — devices that convert energy from one form to another. And when exposed to dynamic forces, they convert that mechanical energy into electrical energy. The resulting electrical signals are directly…
All rotating machines vibrate. Simply put, vibration is a pulsating motion or back and forth movement of a machine or machine part from its original resting position. But knowing whether those vibration levels are normal or abnormal…
