Data for ISO 10816 part 3
Part 3 treats most of the common industrial machines.
They are divided into 4 groups:
Group 1
Large machines with rated power above 300 kW and not more
than 50 MW; electrical machines with shaft height above 315 mm.
Group 2
Medium machines with rated power above 15 kW up to and
including 300 kW; electrical machines with shaft height from 160
mm to 315 mm.
Group 3
Pumps with multivane impeller with
separate driver (centrifugal,
mixed flow or axial flow) with rated power above 15 kW.
Group 4
Pumps with multivane impeller with
integrated
driver (centrifugal,
mixed flow or axial flow) with rated power above 15 kW.
Further criteria for Part 3 are the rigidity of the foundation and
the rotational speed.
Concrete foundations are rigid, every thing else falls under flex-
ible.
The RPM affects the lower measuring range as well as the limit
values.
Please note that correct measurement of very low frequency
vibration demands a transducer that is linear down to the stated
frequency. Abnormally high displacement values can occur when
selecting a lower frequency limit that is outside of the trans-
ducer’s range.
For machines under Part 3, Leonova
returns both VEL and DISP. Machine
condition is determined by the
quantity that has the relatively
highest measurement results.
