Bearing vibration and bearing temperature

First, the vibration of the bearing

Bearing vibration is very sensitive to bearing damage. For example, peeling, indentation, rust, crack, wear, etc. are reflected in the bearing vibration measurement. Therefore, vibration can be measured by using a special bearing vibration measuring device (frequency analyzer, etc.). The size of the frequency can not be inferred from the specific circumstances of the abnormality. The measured values vary depending on the conditions of use of the bearing or the mounting position of the sensor. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze and compare the measured values of each machine in advance to determine the judgment standard.

Second, the temperature of the bearing

The temperature of the bearing, as well as the temperature outside the bearing, can be inferred. If the oil hole can directly measure the temperature of the bearing outer ring, it is more suitable.

Usually, the temperature of the bearing rises slowly as the bearing starts to run, and reaches a steady state after 1-2 hours. The normal temperature of the bearing varies with the heat capacity, heat dissipation, speed and load of the machine. If the lubrication and installation parts are suitable, the bearing temperature will rise sharply and abnormal temperature will occur. At this time, it is necessary to stop the operation and take necessary precautions.

The thermal sensor can be used to monitor the working temperature of the bearing at any time, and automatically alarm or stop the occurrence of the burning shaft accident when the temperature exceeds the specified value.

The use of high temperatures often indicates that the bearing is in an abnormal condition. High temperatures are also harmful to the lubricant of the bearing. Sometimes bearing overheating can be attributed to the lubricant of the bearing. If the bearing is connected for a long time at a temperature exceeding 125C, the bearing life will be reduced. Causes of high temperature bearings include: insufficient lubrication or excessive lubrication, lubricants. Contains impurities, excessive load, bearing damage, insufficient clearance, and high friction caused by oil seals.

Therefore, it is necessary to continuously monitor the bearing temperature, whether it is measuring the bearing itself or other important parts. If the operating conditions are the same, any temperature change can indicate that a fault has occurred.

The periodic measurement of the bearing temperature can be carried out by means of a thermometer, such as a skf digital thermometer, which accurately measures the bearing temperature and displays it in °C or Fahrenheit.

The importance of the bearing means that when it is damaged, it will cause the equipment to stop. Therefore, it is better to install a temperature detector for this type of bearing.

Under normal conditions, the bearing will naturally rise in temperature after lubrication or relubrication for one or two days.
