2..0.4 Vibration Measurement points (Turbine discussed separately) : -- Condition Monitoring
In poer plants! ot"er t"an T#! t"ere are a $e ot"er large dri%es "ere bearing %ibrations are measured
it" suitable pic&ups (#enerally Velocity pic& up). ' typical list it" location is presented belo. (ince
bearing and s"a$t "a%e lesser clearance! it is important to monitor t"e %ibration at t"e bearing so as to
a%oid dangerous situation. In addition to t"e measurements o$ %ibration in t"ese dri%es! all o$ t"em "a%e
