  • Page 4: Operating The Examiner 1000

    OPERATING THE EXAMINER 1000 Overview The EXAMINER 1000 is designed to be used with vibration limits established in ISO Standard 10816 to help you detect signs of malfunction or changes in rotating machinery during operation. This is accomplished with overall vibration (ISO VIB) and envelope measurements.

  • Page 7: What Is Predictive Maintenance

    What Is Predictive Maintenance? Predictive Maintenance can be defi ned as collecting information from machines as they operate to aid in making decisions about their health, repair and possible improvements in order to reach maximum runability, before any unplanned break- down.
  • Page 8: Why Measure Vibration

    (norm) indicates the current health of the machine. The EXAMINER 1000 measures the vibration of a machine while it is operating. Trending these measurements shows how a machine’s condition changes over a period of time.
  • Page 9: Selecting Machinery & Measurements

    Selecting Machinery and Measurements Maintenance personnel have always made visual and hands-on inspections of their machinery on a periodic basis. Systematic data collection and trending allows for recall and comparison of events over time but is not a replacement for good maintenance practices.
  • Page 10: Selecting Measurement Types

    A force on the machine or components which defl ects the part. Best measured Stress in Displacement. The Examiner 1000 does not measure Displacement as it is a very low vibration frequency, below 10 Hz (600 RPM). Fatigue Repeated cycles of stress on a component. If you bend a part back and forth enough times it will fatigue.
  • Page 11: Getting Started In Your Plant

    Getting Started in Your Plant Planning your work is very important to achieve success. The EXAMINER 1000 is an overall vibration meter and electronic stethoscope. It can be used as a stand alone device for the collection of vibration data for the purposes of trending or as a diagnostic instrument used to troubleshoot machinery defects.
  • Page 12: Establishing A Data Collection Route

    Establishing a Data Collection Route The Machinery Data Worksheet helps organize data for routine data collection. Vibration readings are taken on the Points (bearings) established in your route and recorded using your naming convention on the worksheet. Vibration, speed, temperature, pressure or any process data may be recorded using this type of systematic approach.
  • Page 13: What Are You Measuring

    We therefore analyze the “type” of vibration to identify its cause and take appropriate repair action. With overall vibration monitoring (VIB ISO) using the Examiner 1000, analysis of the cause of excess vibration relates to the monitoring equipment’s probe position; either horizontal, vertical, or axial.
  • Page 14: Measurement Techniques

    Measurement Techniques In general, vibration of anti-friction bearings is best monitored in the load zone of the bearing. Equipment design often limits the ability to collect data in this zone. Simply select the measurement Point which gives the best signal. Avoid painted surfaces, unloaded bearing zones, housing splits, and structural gaps.
  • Page 15: Evaluating Overall Vibration Measurements

    Evaluating the Overall Vibration Measurements Three general principles are commonly used to evaluate your vibration measurement values: ISO 10816 Standard Comparison - Compare values to the limits established in the ISO 10816 Standard. See Vibration Severity Chart on page 16. Trend Comparison - Compare current values with values of Baseline for the same Points over a period of time.
  • Page 16: Evaluating Acceleration Envelope Measurements

    Trend Comparison The most effi cient and reliable method of evaluating vibration severity is to compare the most recent reading against previous readings for the same measurement Point, allowing you to see how the Point’s vibration values are “trending” over time. This trend comparison between present and past readings is easier to analyze when the values are plotted in a “trend plot”.

Process Measurements Variables such as temperature, pressure, speed and fl ow used to assess internal conditions of effi ciency. Radial Direction perpendicular to the shaft centerline. Repeatability A measure of the deviation between successive measurements made under the same conditions.
