International standards for the balancing quality and vibration values for industrial fans are de-
ned in the standard ISO 14694:2003. The vibrations are measured radially on the shaft bearing
of the drive motor. If a measurement is not possible directly on the motor, it is measured radially
at the next point that has a mechanical connection to the motor. The following table shows the
fan application categories for maximum permissible vibration.
