    This document provides vibration severity guidelines for various types of machinery faults and issues. It lists target vibration levels and defines minor, moderate, and major severity levels for issues like unbalance, misalignment, looseness, resonance, and bearing or lubrication faults. The table provides guidance on acceptable vibration levels for different fault types and severity levels. It also lists characteristics to identify certain fault frequencies in vibration spectra, such as blade pass harmonics for unbalance or gear mesh frequencies for gearbox issues.

    NB For shaft speeds


    above 2000 rpm use

    Notes

    Notes:

    NB For shaft speeds


    1.Gear mesh vibration is above 2000 rpm use
    very load sensitive 2000 rpm in
    should be measured at calculation
    normal loading.
    2. For shaft speeds
    above 2000 rpm use
    2000 rpm in calculation

    NB For shaft speeds


    above 2000 rpm use
    2000 rpm in
    calculation

    i) Vibration must be collected under normal load in a steady state condition for severity values to be valid. ii) Based on AS 2625 part 4:2003 Group 2 rigid mounted machines which is the most universal category.
