Stud Mountings:
Figure 1. Application of low cost stud. Allow to setup 24
hours before using for stud mounted readings.
Figure 2. Vibration stud used to make
the axial measurements. Call to order or request information on the makeup of this vibration stud. Remove the bolt at the
5:30 position on the bearing cover and replace and leave in this position.
Figure 3. Low
cost vibration stud that can be epoxyied to the surface of your chiller. Prepair surface by using a grinder (Dremel) to clean
off the paint and then apply the stud with liberal amount of epoxy type glue. On surfaces that tend to condense I recommend
applying antisieze to threads. Initial readings may require use of magnetic mounting, because epoxy requires 24 hours to setup
properly.
CVHE/F Chiller Motor Outboard measurement Locations:
Figure 4. Motor
outboard horizontal measurement location. This reading can be collected on motor outboard flange or near the bearing cover.
Both are acceptable measurement locations. Magnetic mounting is acceptable.
Figure
5. Axial Location on Motor Outboard End. Use Stud mounting Location or install
a stud for this measurement. Use an accelerometer that has a stud adapter and tighten securely prior to collecting this reading.
Figure 6. Motor outboard vertical measurement. Can be collected at
12:00 or 6:00 position. Magnetic mounting is acceptable at this measurement location.
