7 Installation of Accelerometers (Vibration Measurement)
7.1 Accelerometers Location
Accelerometer mounting locations are as follows:
·
Channel 0 is DS horizontal direction
·
Channel 1 is NDS horizontal direction
·
Channel 2 is DE Axial direction
·
Channel 3 is DS vertical direction
When mounting accelerometers, it is important to locate the best positions on the motor. The
accelerometer is single axis and measures only in one direction.
Accelerometer diagram and technical specs
Channel 0: Motor Drive End horizontal direction. Find a position on the side of the motor. This position
should be pointing directly in towards the bearing.
Channel 1: Motor Non-Drive End horizontal direction. Find a position on the side of the motor. This
position should be pointing directly in towards the bearing.
Channel 2: Motor Drive End Axial direction: Find a position on the side of the motor. This position should
be pointing in the direction of the shaft.
Channel 3: Motor Drive end vertical direction. Find a position on top of the motor. This position should be
pointing directly in towards the bearing. This sensor should be mounted 90 degrees to the DE Horizontal
direction sensor.
