5.2.3. Installation recommendations
If you use the MEASUREMENTS program the measure points should be selected
according to the mounting method (Figure 7).
Figure 7. Mounting methods and measure points
a) Mounting on dampers with/without a subframe (Figure 7, a).
The measure points should be located on all the damper mounting bolts, from the
machine side, i.e. above damping, or on the machine bearing surfaces close to
these bolts if there is no way to mount the sensor on the bolts. If the machine has
a subframe, the measure points should be located directly on the points where the
machine is mounted to the subframe.
We recommend that you perform the measurement on the bearing units or as close
to them as possible.
The measurement should be carried out in every measure point in three perpendicular
directions: vertical, horizontal and axial. The technical condition is estimated based
on the highest vibration level.
b) Rigid mounting (Figure 7, б)
The mounting procedure is the same as above. The only difference is that depending
on a particular foundation design the measurements can be carried out only in one
