The Mobius Institute Category I course is the ideal starting place for new vibration analysts, people collecting vibration data, and those who want a better understanding of vibration analysis and condition monitoring.
If you are ready to get started in vibration analysis and condition monitoring, this course is for you.
You will come away with a solid understanding of why we monitor the condition of rotating machinery (and other critical assets), the importance of improved reliability, and how vibration can be successfully measured and analyzed to provide an early warning of a wide range of fault conditions.
You will come away from the course with a solid understanding of:
The benefits of performing condition monitoring and improving reliability
The condition monitoring technologies: acoustic emission, infrared analysis (thermography), oil analysis, wear particle analysis, motor testing
How machines work – via supplementary self-study using the “Equipment Knowledge” section
How vibration measurements can tell you about the condition of the machine
How to collect good, repeatable measurements
What the Fmax, resolution, averaging and other analyzer settings mean
How to analyze vibration spectra, and the basics of fault diagnosis: unbalance, misalignment, looseness, rolling element bearings faults, resonance, and other conditions
An introduction to setting alarm limits
Through this Certification Course, participants have the opportunity to accrue 5 Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points.
