Description
This course provides a basic understanding of the science, terminology, and analysis techniques used in the application of vibration analysis to detect rotating equipment defects. This course concludes with an examination that, when successfully completed, will certify the participant as a Vibration Analyst ISO Category I. Subjects presented include measurement technology, the use of a data collector, and practical aspects used during the design of a predictive maintenance program. The theoretical portion of this training, presenting the basics of vibration analysis, is enhanced with numerous real-world examples.
