16.2 Audio Comparison with Other Bearings on the Same
Machinery
When several bearings are used under the same operating conditions,
evaluation can be carried out by listening to the audio signals to
determine changes. This method will help to locate the defective
bearing quickly. Measure all machines at the same Points and compare
the results. Listen for increases in signal and for “clicking” patterns
which indicate wear.
