3. Unbalance (Band 1x)
The presence of high vibration in
Band 1x (Unbalance) - 1x Running Speed
symptom in the radial plane - without any
accompanying high vibration in Band 2x
(Misalignment) or Band 3x (Looseness)
which are called harmonics, is an indica-
tor of out of balance. The presence of the
other harmonics in Bands 2x and 3x
would more likely point to misalignment
or looseness conditions. Always remem-
ber unbalance levels will always be the
highest in the weakest plane (usually in
the horizontal direction).
Misalignment (Band 2x)
Misalignment is a common fault
since it can be difficult to align two shafts
and their bearings properly. The three
main types of shaft misalignment are an-
gular misalignment, offset misalignment,
and combination misalignment. The clas-
sic vibration signature for coupling mis-
alignment is high vibration at Band 1x
(out of balance) and Band 2x (misalign-
ment) in the radial plane. Most times you
will find Band 2x (misalignment) to be
equal to or higher than Band 1x (out of
balance).
Looseness (Band 3x)
Looseness can take many forms in
rotating machinery. A looseness condition
can be created by weakness in the
machine feet or in the structure itself.
Improperly fitted or worn pillow block
bolts or bearing pedestals can manifest
themselves as a looseness condition.
Improper fit between components,
improperly installed couplings, blades,
vanes, etc.) are a form of looseness.
Finally, a bearing turning in its housing or
loose on the journal can sometimes be
detected as a looseness condition. There
are a number of different vibration signa-
tures that constitute looseness, with
emphasis on the fundamental harmonics
of the running speed and sometimes 1/2
and 1/3 harmonics Band .5x (Instability).
Bearing Lube Condition
A bearing lube condition can be triggered
by two situations. One is the presence of
microscopic cracks in the rollers or balls
of the bearing, tiny scratches in the inner
or outer races of the bearing, or some
cracking or slight distortion in the cage
assembly. The second is a momentary
loss of boundary lubrication in the bear-
ing. This loss of the lubrication barrier
between rolling element and raceway
leads to metal-to-metal contact. Bearing
lube conditions can be detected by the
use of (BDU) Bearing Damage Units. If
the bearing is grease lubricated and the
BDU reading is elevated, this may be a
good indicator that greasing the bearing
may be in order. If the bearing is oil-lubri-
cated, and an elevated BDU condition is
persistant, the bearing lubrication system
may not be performing as specified. The
presence of an elevated BDU symptom on
an antifriction bearing may indicate early
bearing wear or a possible lubrication
problem with the bearing.

4. Smart Vibration Monitor 9034 & 9038
Online/Fixed Vibration Monitoring
Features:
• 4 accelerometer channel & 8 accelerometer channel versions
• 24VDC (relay drive) switched output for each channel
(warning/critical, g or velocity)
• 4 to 20mA output for each channel (g or velocity)
• Temperature input
• Tacho Input
• USB for connection to VibRanger PC Software
• Ethernet socket for connection to Online Vibration
analysis software
Advantages:
• Extremely cost effective – lowest cost/channel industrial
vibration monitor/analyser
• Very easy to set up using VibRanger PC software
• 24/7 monitoring of critical plant
Benefits:
Single low cost unit monitors plant with local alarms, connects to high functionality PC analysis software AND connects
to cloud based monitoring and analysis software.
The VibRanger-04 and VibRanger-08 modules are supplied to work in any, or all, modes right out of the box so it truly is a
system that will grow with your requirements.
The VibRanger modules are perfect for extremely cost effective monitoring of critical plants and when used in conjunction
with the TPI 9070, 9080 and 9041 vibration analysers provide the complete CBM soluition.
The VibRanger-04 and VibRanger-08 are the new
generation of low price-high performance installed
vibration analysers from TPI. With up to 8 accelerometer
inputs, 8 digital outputs, 8 analogue outputs, temperature
and tacho inputs as well as USB and Ethernet connectivity
the VibRanger-04 and VibRanger-08 modules offer
unrivalled price/channel performance. The analysers can
be used in several different ways:
• Standalone Operation – Connect up to 8 accelerometers
and up to 8 relays and instantaneously monitor and
alarm on key vibration points. Using the included
VibRanger PC software the alarms can each
independently be set to trigger on either a
velocity level or a g level. If a tacho is
connected a speed range can be set so as
not to activate during machine start-up or
shut-down
• Legacy Systems Operation – for each
connected accelerometer the VibRanger units
can also output levels of vibration (g or
velocity) as 4 to 20mA signals for connection
to existing monitoring systems such as
PLCs etc
• PC Operation – If a laptop/pc is connected via a USB
cable, up to 64 modules can be monitored and the
vibration levels displayed on screen. With the PC
connected more detailed vibration analysis can be
carried out such as up to 51,200 line FFT analysis.
• Online Cloud Operation – by subscribing to TPI’s
DataDecypher cloud based service all installed modules
can be monitored and analysed from a single web based
interface. Just log on via your standard internet browser
and all modules can be viewed and configured.
Furthermore, detailed reporting is just a click away, as
is automatic alarm notification via email.

TPI Connected CBM
After people, information is a company’s greatest asset. TPI’s Connected CBM products help grow that information
by providing the essential data to leverage its true value. Our continually expanding range of Connected CBM
offerings already includes two portable vibration analysers, an Infra-Red & contact thermometer, and now the 90XX
VibRanger online vibration analysers.
Whether the readings are collected by a maintenance technician using the simple to operate 9080 VibMeter, or by a
vibration analyst on a 9041 Ultra II, or 24/7 on a 90XX VibRanger, all of the data will be available on the same analysis
and reporting platform. The only question is which platform to choose – local PC or remote Cloud? Or Both! – With
TPI’s solution the PC based C-Trend II and the Cloud based DataDecypher can share and synchronise all data for a
truly connected solution.
Knowledge may be power, but knowledge needs data – TPI gives you the data!
