Field Measurements

Accurate vibration testing requires years of experience and state-of-the-art equipment. EDI's expert team of engineers and technicians offers clients unmatched knowledge in the area of on site vibration and pulsation data asquisition. EDI helps clients resolve their vibration problems, helping companies:

  • Increase Productivity
  • Improve Reliablity
  • Reduce Maintenance Costs

EDI has the necessary experience and a wide range of state-of-the-art instrumentation and diagnostic techniques to accurately evaluate all types of vibration problems.

VIBRATION INSTRUMENTATION & TECHNIQUES

  • Piezoelectric Accelerometers Provide vibration levels in acceleration (g’s), velocity (IPS), or displacement (mils). Useful over a broad frequency range (0.5 Hz -15kHz).
  • Linear Variable Displacement Transducers Useful for very low frequency or large displacement vibration. Also useful as a static position indicator.
  • Strain Gages_Strain Gages can be installed to directly measure _dynamic & static stress levels.
  • Proximity Probes Non-Contacting, inductive device to measure displacement.
  • Operating Deflection Shape (ODS) EDI routinely obtains ODS and Mode Shape measurements on all types of equipment and structures.
  • Impact Test Data Impact Tests are used to determine mechanical natural frequencies of various components (vessels, pipe spans, etc.).
  • EDI Data Acquisition System EDI’s proprietary software combined with the latest instrumentation enables us to simultaneously acquire and evaluate over 128 channels of data.
