•
Fundamental peak
(Index 4553 - 4554)
°
Peak with the lowest frequency
°
Represents e.g. the speed of the monitored system
°
Always corresponds to peak 1 in the standard analysis.
Figure 18:
Fundamental
and
Dominant peak
Fundamental peak
and
Dominant peak
often represent the same frequency, because e.g.
the vibration with the machine speed is both the strongest signal component and the
signal component with the lowest frequency. If another signal component with a differ‐
ent frequency occurs, which has a higher amplitude than the vibration at the fundamen‐
tal frequency, this results in the
Fundamental peak
and
Dominant peak
representing two
different peaks. This is a strong indicator of a change in the condition of the machine.
For the
Dominant peak
and
Fundamental peak
, the current frequency and amplitude as well
as the minimum or maximum values since the last reset are available.
Monitoring in the reduced analysis
To monitor the
Dominant
and
Fundamental peak
, appropriate limit values can be set for
the frequency and amplitude of the respective peaks. Thus, as shown in
, the
peak is monitored in the X direction (frequency) as well as in the Y direction (amplitude).
