Table 7-2. General tightening torques
NOTE: The values in Table 7-2 General tightening torques are general, and do not apply to
various items, such as diodes, support insulators, bearings, cable terminals or pole
fastenings, bus bar terminals, surge arrestors, capacitors, current transformers, rectifier
and thyristor bridges, or if some other value is given elsewhere in this manual.
7.4.2 Vibration and noise
High or increasing vibration levels indicate changes in the machine's condition. Normal levels
vary greatly depending on the application, type and foundation of the machine. The vibration
measurements and levels are discussed in detail in
Chapter 7.4.3 Vibrations . Some typical
reasons that might cause high noise or vibration levels are:
• Alignment, see Chapter 3 Installation and Alignment
• Bearing wear or damage
• Vibration from connected machinery, see Chapter 7.4.3 Vibrations
