Mounting resonance spectrum

Mounting resonance can give false indication of high frequency machinery faults such as gear mesh and bear-

ing problems. The problem is more likely to occur when using probe tips and magnets, and care must be exer-

cised to prevent the measured mounting resonance peaks from being falsely identified as machine produced

peaks. Mounting the sensor on thin plates such as machine guards, can also lower the mounting resonance.

Figure 8 shows the resonance of several common mounting techniques. Mounting resonance plots are shown

for: (a) probe tip; (b) magnet; (c) Wilcoxon's QuickLINK™; and (d) stud mounted configurations.

Re-measuring with the sensor mounted at a different location will usually discriminate machine vibration from

mounting resonance. However if a machine signal coincides with the resonance of the mounting configuration,

a greatly increased signal can happen. This can lead to sensor overload which will be manifested with a spec-

trum dominated by a ski slope.

Line frequency harmonics in spectrum

Harmonics of AC line power frequency usually indicate interference from motors, power lines and other emis-

sive equipment. First, ensure that the sensor shield is grounded (at one end only). If the shielding is good,

check the cable routing. A good measurement practice is to run signal cables in cable trays separate from

power line cable trays by at least 12 inches. If a signal cable tray must come near a power cable tray, they

should cross at right angles to reduce the possibility of magnetically coupled signals. Using shielded, twisted

pair cable will also help minimize any magnetically coupled noise into the signal cable. For example, if a power

cable is 440 volts and the vibration signals from the sensor are at the millivolt level, any cross talk will severely

corrupt the data.
