Vibration Analyst

1. Scope of Work

A typical vibration analysis scope may include:

a) Data Collection

• Site survey and equipment identification.
• Vibration measurements using accelerometers or portable analyzers.
• Operating condition checks (speed, load, temperature, environment).
• Baseline data recording for trending.

b) Testing & Monitoring

• Frequency analysis (FFT spectrum).
• Time waveform analysis for impact or transient events.
• Phase analysis to identify misalignment or looseness.
• Resonance testing (bump test, coast-down/run-up analysis).
• Continuous online monitoring if required.

c) Data Analysis & Diagnosis

• Identify faults such as:
• Imbalance
• Misalignment
• Bearing wear or damage
• Gear mesh issues
• Structural looseness
• Electrical motor faults (rotor bar, eccentricity)
• Evaluate severity using ISO/ANSI vibration standards.

d) Reporting

• Detailed vibration report with:
• Equipment details and operating conditions.
• Vibration readings and spectrum plots.
• Fault diagnosis and risk assessment.
• Recommended corrective actions (balancing, alignment, bearing replacement, etc.).
• Predictive maintenance schedule.

e) Corrective & Predictive Actions (Optional)

• Field balancing of rotating equipment.
• Laser shaft alignment.
• Bearing condition monitoring.
• Root cause failure analysis (RCFA).
• Recommendations for reliability improvement.
