Applied Vibration Analysis: Analyzing Fan Vibrations

For many manufacturing plants, process industries, and utilities fan maintenance is a way of life. In this interactive online course we’ll apply the vibration analysis process to diagnose developing fan problems. And there are two types of fans we’ll examine. First the overhung type, in which the fan element or blade assembly is mounted on the end of a rotating shaft. And second, the center hung type, in which the shaft extends through the element and is supported on both sides.
