mm/s vibration 2

[Altenergy620]

I am monitoring vibration on a centrifuge and would like to know what mm/s of vibration means

 

[dcasto]

milimeters per second

 

[SomptingGuy]

... probably RMS velocity.

 

[SylvestreW]

Vibration can be measured in terms of displacement, velocity and acceleration of the object.
What you are measuring is the velocity of the object/structure/whatever (due to the applied forces) in millimeters per second.

It could be in rms, peak, to peak, or zero to peak, or absolute.

It could be time averaged.

It will be frequency limited.

perhaps because you said "zero to peak" as opposed to "zed to peak"
