Air-cooled chiller compressor vibration check

Air-Cooled Chiller Compressor Vibration Check – EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

At EKG M&E Sdn Bhd, we provide accurate and reliable compressor vibration checks for air-cooled chillers, helping you identify early signs of mechanical issues before they escalate into costly system failures. The compressor is the heart of your chiller, and excessive or abnormal vibration often indicates imbalance, misalignment, internal wear, or mounting problems. Our vibration check service ensures your compressor is operating smoothly, efficiently, and safely.

Why Compressor Vibration Checks Are Critical

• Detects early-stage mechanical faults before major breakdowns

• Prevents compressor damage due to misalignment or imbalance

• Maintains cooling efficiency and performance

• Supports predictive and preventive maintenance

• Reduces repair costs and unexpected downtime

What We Check

• Compressor base and mounting integrity

• Motor and rotor balance

• Coupling alignment (if applicable)

• Internal bearing condition

• Vibration harmonics and resonance effects

Our Compressor Vibration Check Process

Sensor-Based Vibration Measurement

We use accelerometers and vibration analyzers to measure vibration levels at key compressor points (housing, base, motor coupling, and discharge lines).

Frequency & Amplitude Analysis

Collected data is analyzed using FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) to identify abnormal frequencies that point to:

• Unbalance or misalignment

• Bearing wear or looseness

• Motor or shaft issues

• Structural resonance or mounting weakness

Comparative Diagnostics

We compare the measured vibration against OEM standards and historical performance data to identify any deviations or developing issues.

Actionable Reporting

Our final report includes:

• Current vibration levels and identified anomalies

• Severity grading and likely root causes

• Recommendations for corrective action (realignment, rebalancing, bearing inspection, etc.)

Benefits of Compressor Vibration Checks

• Ensures smooth, uninterrupted operation of the compressor

• Enhances energy efficiency by reducing mechanical resistance

• Minimizes wear on moving parts, extending service life

• Helps you plan maintenance before failure occurs

• Increases overall chiller system reliability
