About this file

This document contains a vibration analysis report, oil analysis report, and details of a related federal contract opportunity for chiller preventative maintenance and analysis services. The reports evaluate two chillers at a facility operated by the US Army Corps of Engineers and identify bearing defects requiring repair. The related solicitation is from the Department of the Army Corps of Engineers for preventative maintenance and ongoing vibration and oil analysis of the chillers. The contract type and period of performance are not specified but the opportunity close date is the solicitation number, indicating responses are currently being accepted. Repair of identified chiller issues would fall under the scope of the maintenance contract.

Vibration Analysis Report

For

CRREL/ERDC,

Hanover, NH.

April 5, 2023

RRBBMM RReeppoorrtt IInnttrroodduuccttiioonn

Data was collected recently at your facility and the analysis of this data is presented in the following report.

Each piece of equipment in your facility will fall into one of three categories.

1. No problems detected – equipment operating normally.

2. Data analysis indicates attention is needed or a potential problem exists – minor maintenance may be required, equipment must be watched more closely for any increase in vibration amplitude or an anomaly has been detected. An anomaly does not necessarily indicate a problem but it does indicate something in the spectrum that is not present in a normal spectrum. The color yellow in the bearing area will depict this problem category.

3. Equipment defect has been confirmed – repair work must be performed at some point in the near future. The color red in the bearing area will depict this problem category.

The contents of this report will highlight the equipment that poses potential problems and equipment that require repair work.

Keywords:

Certainty: This indicates how well the data indicating equipment defect follows accepted analysis rules. This is based on a numerical value from 1-5, where 5 is 100% certain.

Urgency: This is a rating that combines the Certainty and Operational Significance into a weighted value. The following is the description of each weighted value:

1. Normal - Equipment has no known defects – Operate equipment normally

2. Attention – Data analysis indicates an anomaly – Please follow recommended guidance to avoid future equipment damage.

3. Caution - Data analysis indicates a low priority problem exists – additional data may be required, equipment must be watched more closely for any increase in vibration amplitude.

4. Serious - Data analysis confirms equipment defect - Repair work must be scheduled and performed at some point in the near future.

5. Emergency – Data analysis confirms high priority equipment defect – Equipment should be shut down and repair work must be performed as soon as possible. Continued operation will result in a safety risk and/or serious damage to equipment.

The Four Stages of Bearing Failure

Stage 1

Stage 2

STAGE 1: Earliest indications of bearing problems appear in ultrasonic frequencies ranging from about 250,000 - 350,000 Hz; later, as wear increases, usually drops to approximately 20,000 - 60,000 Hz (1,200,000 - 3,600,000 CPM). These are frequencies evaluated by Spike Energy (gSE), HFD(g) and Shock Pulse (dB). For example, spike energy may first appear at about .25 gSE in Stage 1 (actual value depending on measurement location and machine speed). Acquiring high frequency enveloped spectra confirms whether or not bearing is in Failure Stage 1.

STAGE 2: Slight bearing defects begin to "ring" bearing component natural frequencies (fn) which predominantly occur in 30K - 120K CPM range. Such natural frequencies may also be resonances of bearing support structures. Sideband frequencies appear above and below natural frequency peak at end of Stage 2. Overall spike energy grows (for example, from .25 to .50 gSE).

Stage 3

Stage 4

STAGE 3: Bearing defect frequencies and harmonics appear. When wear progresses, more defect frequency harmonics appear and number of sidebands grows, both around these and bearing component natural frequencies. Overall spike energy continues to increase (for example, from .5 to over 1 gSE). Wear is now usually visible and may extend throughout periphery of bearing, particularly when many well-formed sidebands accompany bearing defect frequency harmonics. High frequency demodulated and enveloped spectra help confirm Stage III. Schedule the bearings for replacement, (independent of bearing defect frequency amplitudes in vibration spectra).

STAGE 4: Towards the end, amplitude of 1X RPM is even effected. It grows, and normally causes growth of many running speed harmonics. Discrete bearing defect and component natural frequencies actually begin to "disappear" and are replaced by random, broadband high frequency "noise floor". In addition, amplitudes of both high frequency noise floor and spike energy may in fact decrease; but just prior to failure, spike energy and HFD will usually grow to excessive amplitudes.
