A vibration sensor (DUV10A) is signaling a warning, indicating unusual vibration levels in the drive. The system can continue operation for now, but the underlying cause of vibrations needs to be determined and addressed to prevent escalation to a critical fault and potential equipment damage.
Click steps to track your progress.
1. Measure vibration levels at motor bearings, gearbox, and driven load points using a calibrated vibration analyzer.
2. Perform laser alignment verification between the motor shaft and driven equipment input shaft; adjust if deviation exceeds 0.05 mm.
3. Inspect all motor and driven equipment mounting bolts; torque all bolts to manufacturer specifications (e.g., 80 Nm for M12 bolts).
4. Conduct an oil analysis of the gearbox to detect metallic particles or increased viscosity indicative of bearing wear.
5. Replace motor and/or gearbox bearings if excessive radial or axial play is detected (e.g., >0.05 mm).
