Air-cooled chiller machinery vibration analysis

Air-Cooled Chiller Machinery Vibration Analysis | Optimize Performance with EKG (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd

Why Machinery Vibration Analysis Is Essential

Detects mechanical faults early in critical components

Prevents unexpected breakdowns and production interruptions

Supports predictive maintenance to reduce long-term costs

Enhances system reliability, cooling performance, and energy efficiency

Extends the lifespan of compressors, motors, and fans

Key Machinery Components We Analyze

• Compressors – rotor vibration, shaft alignment, mounting integrity

• Fan Assemblies – blade balance, motor vibration, and housing stability

• Motors and Couplings – misalignment, looseness, and harmonic resonance

• Bearings – wear, fatigue, and lubrication issues

• Chiller Frames and Mounts – structural resonance and vibration transmission

Our Machinery Vibration Analysis Process

• Initial Inspection
  We perform a full mechanical inspection of your chiller’s rotating and structural components to identify visible issues and prepare for sensor placement.

• Sensor-Based Monitoring
  Using high-precision triaxial accelerometers and velocity sensors, we gather vibration data from strategic points across the machine.

• Data Analysis
  We use tools like FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) and envelope detection to identify:

  • Vibration frequencies linked to specific faults

  • Amplitude trends and severity levels

  • Root causes such as unbalance, misalignment, or bearing failure

• Reporting and Action Plan
  We provide a detailed, easy-to-understand report that includes:

  • Real vibration data and frequency spectrum graphs

  • Identified mechanical issues and affected components

  • Recommended corrective actions (e.g., rebalancing, alignment, replacement)

Benefits of Machinery Vibration Analysis
