7.1.3 Measuring Floor Vibrations
Bruker offers a service for measuring floor vibrations using specialized hardware and
software. We recommend measurements to be done over a period of at least 1 hour (ideally
much longer) to try capturing both steady state conditions and transient events.
Furthermore, we recommend a measurement resolution of <= to 0.125 Hz, enabling the
collection of correct amplitudes in the low frequency range.
Also we recommend simultaneous measurements (multiple transducers) along the 3 axis
(vertical, 2 horizontal).
