Reliability Testing Services conducts condition monitoring vibration analysis to examine a subject’s operational vibrations to identify potential faults and ensure proper functionality.
How It Works
All machinery creates vibration during regular operation, but excessive vibrations can damage not only the equipment itself but also any surrounding machinery and structures. Vibration analysis is a predictive testing method that allows technicians to observe individual vibrational frequencies to pinpoint abnormalities. Identifying these inconsistencies helps them recognize specific areas of machine degradation and potential equipment failures. Condition monitoring vibration analysis identifies potential hazards such as:
- Mechanical Looseness
- Bearing Failures
- Electrical Motor Faults
- Bent Shafts
- Misalignment
- Lubrication Issues
- Gearbox Failures
- Pump Cavitation
- Imbalance
The Importance of Predictive Testing
Vibration analysis provides equipment managers with the opportunity to schedule maintenance at convenient times and helps to avoid unexpected downtime due to mechanical failure, allowing our clients to keep their operations running smoothly. At Reliability Testing Services, our trained inspectors perform condition monitoring vibration analysis on many types of machinery and equipment, including but not limited to:
- Hydraulic Pumps
- Thermal Oxidizers
- Air Compressors
- Gearboxes
