Characteristic frequencies of the roots pump
Evaluating the vibration spectrum
Due to the early and clearer diagnosis for bearing damage, Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends
using the envelope curve spectrum.
Optional method for the overall roots pump
► The characteristic frequencies of the roots pump can also be evaluated using the frequency-selec-
tive method (narrow band method).
– The evaluation is not relevant for the ignition protection concept.
6.6.3 Monitoring the motor condition
The frequency range to be evaluated incorporates the significant mechanical vibration stimulations of
the motor.
Frequency range of the motor
10 Hz – 1000 Hz
Tbl. 14:
Relevant frequency range of the motor
1. Evaluate the vibrations in a relevant frequency range using the broadband method.
2. Determine and evaluate the broadband root-mean-square-value for the vibration speed (v
eff
) with-
in the relevant frequency range.
