-
With the transducers mounted in this
manner, the peak signal will arrive when the bearing is displaced its maximum
to the right.
-
Each of the 6 transducers are displaced
the maximum amount to the right at the same moment.
-
Therefore, regardless of which transducer
you are analyzing from, the phase angle (location of the mark) will be
the same.
Just as our radial
phase analysis provides important information on the 'shape' of the movement
radially, an axial phase analysis provides important information on the
'shape' of the movement axially. In the above animation, we have found
there is no phase shift as we move the transducer around the face of the
bearing. But how else could it be moving ?
The Bearing
Is Moving Axially In A "Planar" Motion (Not Twisting On The Shaft) |
What is the
significance of this ?
The Source
Of The High Axial Vibration Is Not Caused By Incorrect Installation Of
This Bearing |
