Compressor Bearing Vibration
Compressor Bearing Vibration
(OP)
A Motor that drives our centac air compressor has suddenly increased vibration readings with a dominant peak at 2X which is extremely close to being BSF. It increased over 7 days from .058ips to .142ips. There is a cyclical noise being emmitted from the bearing that I can detect using ultrasonics. My question is, this being a 3600rpm motor, how long do I have before I should replace the bearing?
