ISO 18436-2 CAT I Vibration Analysis

Target audienceThe Vibration Analysis CAT I course is intended for personnel who are new to vibration moni-toring and analysis, and for personnel who have limited vibration analysis experience.

Course objectives The course focuses on periodic, single channel data collection and analysis for condition based maintenance programs. A foundation is established for in-depth understanding of spectrum and wa-veform relationships. This is the ideal starting place for new vibration analysts, people collecting vi-bration data, and those who want a better understanding of vibration analysis and condition monito-ring. You will come away from this course with a very good understanding of the fundamentals; you will understand how to take good measurements (and understand the importance of repeatability) and you will be ready to begin analyzing vibration spectra.

Course content Maintenance practices

� Condition monitoring � Principles of vibration � Introduction to vibration measurement � An introduction to the time waveform � An introduction to the spectrum � An introduction to forcing frequencies � Explaining the different vibration units � A brief introduction to phase � Data acquisition � A quick review of data acquisition � How do we measure vibration? � Where to place the sensor on the machine � Understanding axial, radial, vertical, and horizontal readings

Target audienceThis course is designed for those who have been able to master the CAT I basics, but who need to be able to take

good data, analyze a range of fault conditions, and understand balancing and alignment.

Course objectives The course provides an in-depth study of machinery faults and their associated spectrum, time waveform and

phase characteristics. A Category II analyst is expected to know how to test machines correctly, how to diagnose

faults accurately, perform additional diagnostic tests for verification, how to set vibration alarm limits, and how

to correct certain types of faults. You need to understand what your analyzer settings mean so that you can take

the best measurements. You also need to understand why the vibration patterns change the way they do and

how to use time waveform analysis and phase analysis to verify the fault condition.

Course content � Review of maintenance practices

� Review of condition monitoring techonologies

� Principles of vibration; review of basics, waveform, spectrum (FFT), phase, and orbits

� Understanding signals: modulation, beating, sum/difference

� Data acquisition

� Signal processing

� Vibration spectrum analysis

� An introduction to time waveform analysis

� An introduction to orbit analysis

� Phase analysis: bubble diagrams and ODS enveloping (demodulation), shock pulse, spike energy, PeakVue

� Fault analysis

� Equipment testing and diagnostics including impact testing (bump tests) and phase analysis

� Corrective action

� Running a successful condition monitoring program

� Acceptance testing

� Review of ISO standards

Requirements Personnel who have at least twelve months vibration analysis experience and a thorough understanding of vi-

bration theory and terminology. Eighteen months of vibration analysis experience is required for Category II or

Level II certification.
