Ultrasound Monitoring for Predictive Maintenance

Ultrasound Monitoring for Predictive Maintenance

Ultrasound can be effectively used for predictive and condition based maitnenance for detecting rubbing, lubrication, leaks, bearing and gear faults. It can also be used for detecting arcing in electrical equipment’s. Overview Sound waves with frequency over the human audible frequency range are called ultrasound. These are sound waves that have a frequency of 20…

IoT Gateway Architecture and Selection

IoT Gateways: The Importance of Selecting the right IoT Gateway for your application What is an IoT Gateway? An Internet of Things (IoT) gateway is a physical device or software application that serves as the point of connection between the IoT application server and end devices. All data moving to and from the IoT application…

Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) for predictive maintenance of ultra low RPM machines

Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) for predictive maintenance of ultra low RPM machines

Using conventional vibration monitoring on low RPM rotating machineries (RPM ~0 to 60) is difficult. Why? What are the usual measurements you need to make on low RPM machines? S.N. Parameter Sensor Measurement System 1. VibrationAccelerationVelocityDisplacement Minimum 500 mV/g low frequency accelerometer with low floor noise. You can also use a 100mV/g with an envelope…

What are the Overall Vibration measurements and their use in Predictive Maintenance?

What are the Overall Vibration measurements and their use in Predictive Maintenance?

The following are referred to as overall vibration measurements: RMS value is defined as the square root of means of squares of instantaneous values. Peak (Derived Peak) = √2 x RMS . The Derived Peak is usually referred to as Peak. True Peak is the maximum value attained by during one cycle of vibration waveform…
