PT 103: Pump Monitoring

From Wilcoxon Research
 

 

Vibration monitoring of critical and auxiliary pumping systems helps improve machine reliability, safety, and production capability. Dynamic and positive displacement pumps produce vibrations indicative of running condition, incipient faults, and component failure. These vibrations appear at specific frequencies across a very wide spectrum. Reliable measurements of low frequency surge pulsations, running speed harmonics, and high frequency cavitation requires optimized vibration sensor technology.

Wilcoxon Research piezoelectric accelerometers provide the dynamic and frequency ranges required for complete industrial pump monitoring. Pump monitoring with PZT piezoelectric accelerometers assures reliable measurements across the vibration spectrum.
