End goal - The CMMS automatically creates a Maintenance Request when a component was in a degraded condition.
Vibration Analysis monitors the condition of rotating equipment by focusing on the mechanical vibration the equipment transmits. For very little investment (a few thousands) you can protect millions of dollars of assets. Vibration Analysis is used to monitor fans, pumps, motors, compressors, chillers, and fixed structures. It is used to detect bearing problems, belt problems, bent shaft, misalignment, oil whirl, resonance, cavitation, recirculation, gear problems, mechanical looseness, sheave problems, unbalance, and some electrical problems including broken rotor bars and loose stators.
Oil analysis is the sampling and analysis of a lubricant's properties, suspended contaminants, and wear debris. Oil analysis provides a view of the condition of the oil along with the machine wear.
