  • Page 8: Introduction

    Introduction The FLIR Vibration Monitoring Solution allows you to monitor machinery for excessive vibration and over-temperature conditions using a mobile device exclusively (standalone) or a combination of Windows® PC and mobile de- vice. Accelerometers in the sensors measure changes in vibration. Thermom- eters in the sensors measure surface temperature.
  • Page 9 Introduction Figure 2.4 Monitoring vibration and temperature in chillers. Vibration measurements encompass the frequency (velocity), amplitude (strength), and acceleration (intensity) of the vibration. Figure 2.5 Vibration frequency (left), amplitude (centre), and acceleration (right) Vibration measurements provide insight into potential mechanical issues. This device is well suited for identifying imbalances, eccentricity, loose parts, and misalignment.

Multiple gate- ways can be used for optimum coverage of large test sites. • SV87 Remote Sensors. Attach to machinery and transmit measurement data and battery status via Bluetooth to the remote monitoring gateway.

    Sensor Installation NOTE Do not permanently affix sensors to assets until you’ve allowed sufficient time to ensure sta- ble communication between sensors and gateways in their temporary positions. 6.1 Sensor Placement Considerations When considering test point sensor locations, the individual parts of the equipment and its operation should be well understood.

  • Page 27: Where Sensors Should Not Be Placed

    Sensor Installation 6.3 Where sensors should not be placed CAUTION Do not mount sensors on the following locations: • Motor winding areas • Middle of motor • Pump casing • Cooling fan fins/covers • Coupling belt guards, gearboxes • Seal locations Figure 6.3 Examples of places you should not mount sensors.

  • Page 28: Documenting Sensor Locations

    Sensor Installation Ensure that coverage of equipment is sufficient regarding the number of sen- sors. Ten (10) sensors will work in most circumstances, given no obstruction between gateway and sensor. The key factor is obstruction since, with no ob- struction, it is possible to have more than ten sensors operating normally. Use multiple gateways to accommodate more sensors and to ensure proper cov- erage of a test site.

  • Page 29: Mapping A Test Site

    Mapping a Test Site To best maintain a test site, it is important to keep a list of asset (equipment) names and their types, classifications, and locations. Depending on the size of the operation, a site map may also be needed to show machine locations and the test points where sensors are attached to assets.

    Communication Preparation This diagram shows how a test system is configured using a smart device. The sensor, on a monitored asset, automatically sends vibration and tempera- ture data to the gateway every 90 seconds (via Bluetooth). The gateway transmits sensor data to the smart phone using Wi-Fi. The smart device alerts the user to abnormal vibration or temperature readings.
