35. Instrument operation, Input data and Output results

36. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….35 Instrument operation Input data required for Analyser: 1.Norm No.(10 - 58): Calculated by instrument after giving bearing number and RPM 2.Type No. (1 - 8) : Depends upon bearing geometry. 3.Comp. No. (-30 - +30): To calibrate the measuring point location 4.Accumulation No. (1 – 9): To define the instrument measuring cycle time

37. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….36 Instrument operation Input data required for Tester: 1.Shaft diameter (Bearing inner diameter, Maximum 1999mm) 2.Rotational speed of bearing (RPM, 10 – 19999 RPM) 3.dBi – Decibel initial value is calculated by the instrument after giving shaft diameter and RPM input. (-9 to 40)

38. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….37 Output results from the instrument 1.Normalized results- Needs certain input data to evaluate the bearing condition. 2.Un Normalized results- No need of any data input. Instrument displays the absolute shock pulse magnitude in decibel scale

39. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….38 Output results Normalized results - Analyser: 1.Code : A/B/C/D or E2/E3/E5 2.Lub No. : 0 – 40 Indicates lubricant film thickness 3.Cond No.: 20 – 65 Indicates severity of bearing damage 4.LR : Lower occurrence rate, Decibel shock value of the shock pulses whose occurrence rate is 45 pulses per second. (-19 to 99 dBsv.) 5.HR : Higher occurrence rate, Decibel shock value of the shock pulses whose occurrence rate is 1000 pulses per second. (-19 to 99 dBsv.)

40. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….39 Output results Normalized results - Tester: 1.dBm: Decibel maximum value, Decibel shock value of the shock pulses whose occurrence rate is 5 pulses per second. (-9 to 60 dBN) dBm = dBsv – dBi 2.dBc: Decibel carpet value, Decibel shock value of the shock pulses whose occurrence rate is 300 pulses per second. (-9 to 60 dBN)

41. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….40

42. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….41 Output results -Un Normalized result 1.Analyser : Only LR and HR values are displayed when “0” NORM NO. input is given to the instrument. These values can be trended to evaluate the bearing condition. 2.Tester : Only decibel shock values are displayed when “--” dBi input is given to the instrument. These values can be trended to evaluate the bearing condition.

43. Evaluation Of Shock Pulse Readings

44. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….43 Three steps in evaluation of readings Trending Comparing Normalising

45. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….44 Three steps in evaluation of readings Trending 1. Collect SPM & VIB readings over a period of time. 2. Plot the graphs and see the variation. Comparing 1. Compare readings of similar machines. 2. Compare SPM readings with VIB readings and analyze. Normalizing 1. Establish own limits after hands on experience on the same machine

46. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….45 Pressure variation translated into shock pulse pattern The filtered transducer signal reflects the pressure variation in the contact area. When the oil film in the bearing is thick, the shock pulse level is low, without distinctive peaks. The level increases when the oilfilm is reduced, but there are still no distinctive peaks. Damage causes strong pulses at irregular intervals. One can liken the three shock pulse patterns to the vibrations felt in a car while driving on a) a smooth road surface, b) a rough road surface, c) a road full of potholes.

47. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….46 Shock pulse pattern of a good bearing Good Bearing : Code : A (Green Zone) Lub No : 1 – 40 1.Low LR and HR values 2.LR – HR =  dB 3.  dB value is ideal 4 – 8 dB 4.Trend shows no variation or minor change in LR/HR

48. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….47 Shock pulse pattern of a Poor lubricated bearing Poor Lubricated Bearing : Code : B (Yellow Zone) Lub No : 0 or 1 Cond : 20 to 30 1.High HR values, close to LR 2.LR – HR =  dB 3.  dB value is < 4 dB 4.Trend shows gradual increase in HR reading. 5.Increase in bearing temperature

49. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….48 Shock pulse pattern of a damaged bearing Damaged Bearing : Code : C or D (Yellow or Red) Cond No. : 30 to 65 1.High LR values, Distinctive peaks in shock pulse pattern. 2.LR – HR =  dB 3.  dB value is > 10dB 4.Trend shows gradual increase in LR reading. 5.Increase in bearing temperature

51. ERROR CODES - E2 / E3 / E5

52. ………. Your Partner in Condition Monitoring ……….51 Error Codes 1.E2 – External disturbance like cavitation, scraping of loose parts, gear noise, steam screaming, rubbing etc. 2.E3 – Signal low. 3.E5 – Norm No. too low. Norm No. should be more than 18 to obtain evaluated results with probe.
