This part of ISO 10816 gives criteria for assessing vibration
levels when measurements are made in situ. The criteria
specified apply to machine sets having a power above 15 kW and
operating speeds between 120 r/min and 15 000 r/min.
The machine sets covered by this part of ISO 10816 include:
— steam turbines with power up to 50 MW;
— steam turbine sets with power greater than 50 MW and speeds
below 1 500 r/min or above 3 600 r/min (not included in ISO
10816-2);
—rotary compressors;
—industrial gas turbines with power up to 3 MW;
—generators;
—electrical motors of any type;
—blowers or fans.
NOTE However, the vibration criteria presented in this part of
ISO 10816 are generally only applicable to fans with power ratings
greater than 300 kW or fans which are not flexibly supported. As
and when circumstances permit, recommendations for other types of
fans, including those with lightweight sheet metal construction,
will be prepared. Until such time, classifications can be agreed
between the manufacturer and the customer, using results of
previous operational experience, see also ISO 14694.
The following are excluded from this part of ISO 10816:
—land-based steam turbine generator sets with power
greater than 50 MW and speeds of 1 500 r/min, 1 800 r/min, 3 000
r/min or 3 600 r/min (see ISO 10816-2);
—gas turbine sets with power greater than 3 MW (see ISO
10816-4);
—machine sets in hydraulic power generating and pumping
plants (see ISO 10816-5);
—machines coupled to reciprocating machines (see ISO
10816-6);
—rotodynamic pumps including integrated electric motors,
i.e. where the impeller is mounted directly on the motor shaft or
is rigidly attached to it (see ISO 10816-7);
—rotary positive displacement compressors (e. g. screw
compressors);
—reciprocating compressors;
—reciprocating pumps;
—submerged motor-pumps;
—wind turbines.
The criteria of this part of ISO 10816 apply to in situ
broad-band vibration measurements taken on the bearings, bearing
pedestals, or housing of machines under steady-state operating
conditions within the nominal operating speed range. They relate to
both acceptance testing and operational monitoring. The evaluation
criteria of this part of ISO 10816 are designed to apply to both
continuous and non-continuous monitoring situations.
This part of ISO 10816 encompasses machines which may have gears
or rolling element bearings, but does not address the diagnostic
evaluation of the condition of those gears or bearings.
The criteria are applicable only for the vibration produced by
the machine set itself and not for vibration which is transmitted
to the machine set from external sources.
