HS-620/630 User Guide HS-620/630 Vibration Meter Kit Operating Manual Hansford Sensors Ltd. August 2013 The HS-620 Vibration Meter Kit is an ideal low cost entry level vibration monitoring instrument, designed for Maintenance Technicians to use on site, helping to give protection to important plant machinery. The HS-630 adds an easy to use temperature measurement function.
HS-620/630 User Guide Overview The HS-620 Vibration Meter Kit is a reliable and easy to use hand-held machine condition inspection instrument. It provides vibration measurement, alarm indication and a bearing status check facility. The HS-630 kit provides an additional facility for non-contact temperature measurement. The meter enables plant maintenance technicians to monitor their machines, find potential problems in advance of failure, and to ensure machine reliability.

The VBA20 2.1 Sensor Connection Fit the vibration sensor to the machine measurement position via a magnetic base or stud. Connect the sensor cable to the BNC connector on the meter.
HS-620/630 User Guide 2.3 Key Functions SEL key- Press SEL to switch-on the meter. y- Pr c t i In the Overall Vibration mode press SEL to toggle through the l l a measurement parameter options:- VIB key Press VIB to toggle between Measure and Hold modes. The Hold mode is indicated by an ’H’...
HS-620/630 User Guide 2.4 Overall Vibration Measurement & Assessment At switch-on the meter defaults to the Velocity measurement mode, with the units ‘mm/s rms’ indicated at the bottom right of the display. If required, press SEL to select acceleration or displacement. Note that no vibration assessment is available on these ranges.
HS-620/630 User Guide 2.6 Bearing Status Check Fix the sensor directly to the bearing housing as close to the bearing as possible. Note that valid high frequency readings are unlikely to be measured using hand pressure and the spike. Press the BRG key to enter the Bearing Status mode. Press the SEL key to select either Bg (g RMS) or Bv (mm/s RMS).
HS-620/630 User Guide The ISO10816-3 Machine Vibration Standard Industrial machines covered by the ISO10816-3 standard include :- Steam turbines with nominal power less than 50MW Steam turbines with nominal power above 50MW with speeds less than 1500rpm or above 3600rpm (ie. excludes machines included in ISO10816-2 Rotating compressors Industry gas turbines with nominal power less than 3MW...

HS-620/630 User Guide Fig.2 ISO 10816-3 Vibration Levels 10816-3 i V The machine mountings affect the resonances related to the basic f f f running speed of the machine. Machines with rubber or spring mountings often vibrate at low speeds following start-up, and as the f f t o l l speed increases the vibration level is reduced.
HS-620/630 User Guide Bearing Status Assessment When the rolling elements move inside a bearing, broadband noise and n i l vibration is generated. This increases if the bearing is not properly lubricated, or is overloaded due to misalignment or damaged surfaces. r o s i g i l The bearing vibration Bg or Bv measured by the meter is the RMS value...
HS-620/630 User Guide 4.2 BV Values Bv measurement is a long established method for detecting bearing faults which gives reliable indication of bearing condition in 80-90% of cases. The rule-of-thumb assessment used in the meter is as follows:- 1mm/s Healthy bearing, correctly greased BV =1-2mm/s Possibly damaged or un-greased bearing BV >...
HS-620/630 User Guide 5.1. Surface Temperature Measurement The temperature sensor measures the average temperature in a circle of diameter one-eighth of the distance between the surface and the sensor. For example, when the meter is held 1m from a surface, the sensor will respond to a 125mm spot diameter on the surface.
