FAG
Detector III – the new all-rounder for condition-based maintenance
In
early July 2006, the Schaeffler subsidiary FAG Industrial Services GmbH (F’IS)
has launched the FAG Detector III - a true all-rounder for the maintenance
of rotating components - at an attractive price. The new device offers an
improved mobile condition monitoring function (measurement of temperature
and vibration). Moreover, it features the option of static and dynamic
balancing. The
enlarged memory permits users now to record up to 1,600 measuring points
plus up to 270 time signals per inspection round for condition monitoring
purposes. This means that bearing damage, imbalance and misalignment are
recognized even more reliably. In addition, thanks to the balancing
function, any imbalance detected can be eliminated directly and easily.
Typical applications include the monitoring of electric motors, fans,
ventilators and pumps. Due
to its low weight, the mobile Detector III is particularly suitable for
monitoring large plants where long distances have to be covered on a
measuring round to get to a large number of measuring points. After the
measuring round has been generated, the system guides the inspector from
measuring point to measuring point. This makes it easier for the staff
performing the measurements to use exactly the same measuring points. This
– as well as regular, short intervals between inspections - makes the
measurements comparable with each other. As
the monitoring system is very easy to operate, users can learn to handle
it quickly. Thanks to the integrated bearing database, which already
contains the data of about 20,000 bearing types from different
manufacturers, analyses can be carried out quickly and reliably. The
evaluation of the measured values itself requires more in-depth
specialized knowledge and can be carried out either by a F’IS vibration
expert or – after thorough training by F’IS - by the customer’s
personnel. Like all condition monitoring systems developed by the Herzogenrath maintenance experts, the FAG Detector III helps users to detect incipient bearing damage at an early stage, making maintenance and the procurement of replacement parts plannable. In this way, costly production losses and equally costly potential consequential damage can be largely avoided. The successful predecessor model FAG Detector II can be upgraded to the new monitoring system. Contact
