Application Advisory
If you plan to make housing measurements for overall machine protection,
consider the usefulness of the measurement for each application. Most
common machine malfunctions (imbalance, misalignment, etc.) originate at
the rotor and cause an increase (or at least a change) in rotor vibration. For
any housing measurement to be effective for overall machine protection,
the machine must faithfully transmit a significant amount of rotor vibration
to the bearing housing or machine casing, or more specifically, to the
mounting location of the transducer. In addition, you should exercise care
in the physical installation of the transducer. Improper installation can
degrade the transducers performance, and/or generate signals that do not
represent actual machine vibration. Integration of the output to
displacement can make this worse. Exercise extreme caution if integrating
to displacement in any case.
