In this educational video from the RMS Reliability Training Institute (rms-training.com), Stuart Walker provides a comprehensive, hands-on tutorial on how to diagnose a bearing defect through data collection, analysis, and inspection, identifying the root cause of the damaged bearing. See below for a time-stamped summary.
💡 In this video, you'll discover:
📍 (0:15) Introduction to the thermal oxidizer unit at a chemical plant, which the team is set to inspect for a suspected vibration problem.
📊 (0:55) Explanation of how the vibration route is loaded into the analyzer and data is collected from the combustion fan.
🔄 (4:07) Once back in the office, the collected data is transferred from the analyzer into the PC for further analysis.
🚨 (4:37) An exception report is run to identify any alarms that were triggered during the data collection phase.
📈 (5:55) Presentation of the melter points plot that shows various parameters of the combustion fan.
🕰️ (6:48) A look at the trend history that reveals increased levels of high frequency values, indicating a potential issue.
📝 (9:06) Examination of the spectrum history and waveform, revealing a lot of high-frequency activity.
🔍 (10:07) Detailed analysis of the frequency spectrum and time waveform.
👀 (11:23) Identification of non-synchronous harmonics, indicating a bearing defect.
🧩 (12:25) Using the bearing numbers, potential issues are overlaid onto the analysis for further understanding.

While researching spindle issues for my surface grinder I came upon your video. It gave me great insights. It was also interesting that you were able to specifically identify the bearing outer race as the culprit. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I like the way you you have set your frequency of interests in your CSI analyser display. how did you dismantle the bearing without cutting them? Regards, Omar

@StuWalkerFishingAdventures 7 жыл бұрын

It was a self aligning bearing, so after removing a couple of balls either side of the cage the outer race came off intact.

Great Video Just one concern how did you get cage frequency?It looks you have several frequencies for different parts that is amazing. but I don't know how is it passible to get parts frequency !

@MotionAmplificationRMSLtd 6 жыл бұрын

For most rolling element bearings the cage frequency is usually between 0.38 -0.42 orders of running speed. Ie for 1 revolution of the shaft the cage will rotate 0.4 orders or 40% of a rev when compared to the running speed.

@mustafaalhadi4408 6 жыл бұрын

the inner cage isn't supposed to run at the same speed of the rotor since it is mounted on the shaft?second 40% is it based on literatures or the manufacturer. for me how can I get these things ?Appreciate your response Mustafa

@MotionAmplificationRMSLtd 6 жыл бұрын

Each rolling element bearing has set defect frequencies based on ball dia, pitch dia and number of balls or rollers. Vibration analysis software usually comes with a database of bearing defect frequencies for each manu

What is the point to take 72 orders on Fan bearing? Probably because of CSI default database setting?

@reliabilitymaintenancesolu6459 5 жыл бұрын

Anywhere between 50-80 orders is good practice to get a number of harmonics in the spectrum, 72 is most likely closest band within analyser / software.

@muhammadrizwan1223 5 жыл бұрын

@@reliabilitymaintenancesolu6459 72 order is default setting of CSI. After having experience I concluded 30 to 40 orders are enough specially for fan and pump.

@reliabilitymaintenancesolu6459 5 жыл бұрын

I think that's too low, if you had inner race primary bearing defect freq between 12-14 orders you would only get two harmonics of the defect frequencies. You could also miss rotorbar stator slot freqs on the motors usually around 45-60x rpm. Also electrical erosion bearing faults on VSD motors usually show higher harmonics of bearing frequencies due to fluting patterns, you could miss some info with just 30-40 orders. Okay for sleeve bearings but not anitfiction.

@hammadyounas1597 11 ай бұрын

Hi, I think best practice is to make 2 points. 1 for low orders and 1 for high orders like in this video. @@reliabilitymaintenancesolu6459

Hi mate, i just did a test run yesterday on HVAC 6.6KV 530 kw 1000 rpm with copper rotor 99.8% double bearing DE NU228 + 6228 and NDE NU228 for bark crusher machine. The test run was done on no load All parameters are great except the gE of the 6228 skf bearing was high, with average 2.4, it started at 10 and after regreasing it went down to 1.088 and went up to 2.4 average after a few readings taken. The motor is new. According to control and monitoring team this is not acceptable and pose medium risk. Please advise is it normal ?

@MotionAmplificationRMSLtd 7 ай бұрын

Need to do under load ideally the roller bearings could skid slightly due to reduced load which would give you the high readings. Greasing will dampen out some of high freqs for a while. Common issue on double brgs with roller brg that has low radial loads. Check on load, would be concerned if clear bearing freqs present in standard vibration readings. As opposed to just envelope readings.

@@MotionAmplificationRMSLtd Vibration is very low, averaging 0.2, this afternoon we did dismantle the NU 228 and 6228 SKF explorer C3 from the motor as requested by the monitoring team and replaced them with Fag, reading was still high at 1.4 and 1.9 though the have gone down from 2.1 and 2.4. Thanks for the input, but still not under 1 which proves that your input is on point. Thanks a lot !!!

One question mate, i suspect that the motor we bought has no corona protector being applied on despite being high voltage, what will be the worst scenario ?

Well there's your problem. Fan shaft bearings wailing like a banshee and pissing grease. Don't need high tech accelerometer to figure this one out.

@steveg2277 Жыл бұрын

When a lot of money is hanging in the balance for every shutdown or repair, you don’t use basic intuition. This, the proper analysis, makes sure there are no wasted efforts or costs. You know with a certainty the source of the problem. This is a simple example. In a more complicated system that good ole intuition evaporates pretty quickly.
