How do we monitor these types of machines?
What kind of components are we trying to monitor in these machines? High speed gearing High speed shafts / impellers Low speed shafts Geared couplings Disc or shim-pack couplings Sleeve bearings Multi-segment tilt pad bearings
This does not include the driver which could be a motor or turbine of whicheither one can add more complexities to the setup of a monitoring route

What parameters do we have available for monitoring the overall condition?
Bearing temperatures Stage and drive gear vibration Stage inlet and outlet temperatures Stage inlet and outlet pressures Intercooler inlet and outlet temperatures Intercooler inlet and outlet pressures Motor amperage or kW
There are a lot of parameters that can be used including the above items and:
Performance testing Oil Analysis And visual inspections

What do we use to monitor the vibration of the machine?
Is there a permanent probe of some kind on each stage? Is there a permanent monitoring / vibration protection system installed? Or are our only options temporary accelerometers?
Many permanent monitoring systems will have proximity probes on each stage,are they?
A single probe on the stage? Dual probes at 90 degrees? Any there permanent accelerometers? Can you ‘plug-in’ to obtain the raw signal in your portable data collector?

Vibration Analysis:
Proximity probe use Magnetically mounted accelerometers High Frequency accelerometers
To use the above probes we need to figure out the expected fault frequenciesSo that we can set up the appropriate frequency spans and resolutions
The following segments of the case studies will be on several Joy (Cameron Compression) MSG 4-stage machines
