Vibration Monitoring Non Rotating

Machines

VM - Vibration Monitoring (ISO 10816) - is it

evidently shaking itself - monitor by operator or
transducer.

Vibration Monitoring has its roots in maintenance

engineers inspecting machines during their traditional
walk around. It attempts for formalise an instinctive
understanding that a machine is vibrating unusually.

ISO 10816 establishes the general conditions and

procedures for measurement and evaluation of
vibrations from the non-rotating parts of machines.

Standards provide guidance for machines operating in

the 10 to 200 Hz (600 to 12,000 RPM) frequency
range. Examples of these types of machines are
small, direct-coupled, electric motors and pumps,
production motors, medium motors, generators,
steam and gas turbines, turbo-compressors, turbo-
pumps and fans. Some of these machines can be
coupled rigidly or flexibly, or connected through
gears. The axis of the rotating shaft may be
horizontal, vertical or inclined at any angle.

ISO 10816-3 defines four groups of machines, ranked

according to size, base and purpose. It separates the
working conditions into four zones:

Zone A Green: vibration values from machines just put into

operation

Zone B Yellow: continuous operation without any

restrictions

Zone C Orange: condition is acceptable only for a limited

period of time

Zone D Red: dangerous vibration values - damage could

occur at any time
