– Actual vibration limits must be 

related to stress levels, which can be measured with strain gage equipment.  In general, if 
vibration levels are below the guidelines mentioned below, the stress levels are well below the 
fatigue level of the equipment.  If vibration problem is perceived, a spectral analysis should be 
performed on the unit by a qualified specialist.

– Cyclical failures generally occur 

in the range of 10 to 100 cycles.  High velocity at high frequency will result in failure at a much 
greater rate than high velocities at a low frequency.  Experience should also be a guideline in 
determining acceptance limits for a particular compressor package.
