A New Dual-Channel Analyzer for Vibration of Rotary Machine

A new simultaneous sampling and analyzer for dual-channel signal of vibration for rotating machine is developed based on the C8051F060, which is a high-speed SoC system and has two ADCs embedded with high sampling frequency. The signal condition circuits for various vibration sensors are designed, such as charge amplifier, integral transform and rotating speed detector. A colorful TFT LCD used can display all kinds of vibration analysis plots that are friendly in human-machine interface. The large capability non-volatile memory is used to restore up to one hundred of group of vibration waves. With many typical functions of vibration analysis, including waveform analysis, spectrum, orbit and balancing, this instrument is widely applied to vibration measurement and fault diagnosis of machine and equipment, especially for field balancing of rotary machine.Copyright © 2008 by ASME
