1. SCOPE
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
2.1 All equipment fabricated, tested, and installed under this standard
shall also conform as a minimum to the latest edition of the National
and international Codes and Standards specifically stated herein as
applicable. No omission from this document shall relieve the Supplier of
his aforementioned responsibility.
3. DEFINITIONS
3.1 For the purposes of this standard the following shall apply:
4. GENERAL
b) When required, the right to review any data which may be related to
one or all of the following: material selection, fabrication, assembly,
balancing or testing of the manufactured equipment. If a unit is found
unacceptable and remedial work is required information related to
machining tolerances and balancing certification limits utilized, or
techniques applied may be requested for an on the spot review.
4.5 The Supplier shall be responsible for and assure the Issuer that
vibration levels do not exceed the limits established by this standard as
listed in Appendix .A under the appropriate tables.
4.6 The Supplier shall assume the responsibility for, and the obtaining
of, any and all performance warranties on equipment provided to meet
this standard.

6. AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT
6.2 Vibration limits are specified elsewhere (see Section 8.1) for piping
and/or valve installations that are wholly contained on or within the
physical confines of the skid or base mounted unit(s).
AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT
ACCEPTABLE VIBRATION AMPLITUDES
Peak velocity readings are preferred for analysis. All data gathered shall
be recorded in both the unfiltered and filtered state. Only filtered
readings are to be used in entering the table above for acceptance
testing.
7. ACCEPTANCE TESTING
7.1 The Supplier shall grant the Issuer or his representative permission
to enter his facility during final acceptance testing, i.e. performance,
mechanical or no load testing for the purpose of vibration analysis on
any equipment being purchased. The Issuer retains the option to supply
their own portable instruments and personnel lo analyze the equipment
being tested.
a) The Supplier shall notify the Issuer at least five (5) days prior to a
scheduled test unless a different lime frame is mutually agreed upon
between the Supplier and the Issuer.
c) The Supplier shall state the critical or resonant speeds, all input and
output shaft speeds including those for any intermediate shafts in gear
trains, the number of teeth on meshing gears in an inter drive system
and any other similar information necessary to identify frequencies
during the vibration analysis. This data shall be given to the Issuer or
his representative prior lo the acceptance test and made a part of the
test report.

7.5 This vibration standard does not in any way, manner, or form,
supplant other routine pre or post inspections such as hydrostatic,
welding, fabrication, disassembly after testing, painting, packaging, etc.
c) General piping beyond the first pipe support shall not exceed twice
the Maximum Allowable Amplitude (velocity or displacement amplitudes
given in Appendix. A tables) for that particular type of equipment to
Arthit Project SPECIFICATION AGS-22
9.1 The vibration levels shall be recorded from the horizontal, vertical
and axial planes for all accessible bearing locations on the equipment
and at other positions designated in the specific vibration tables. Do not
record data from locations on thin walled casings, covers, housings or
similar enclosures. Flange or structurally rigid locations are acceptable
for data points.
10.1 ISO, British and other European standards have chosen “vibration
severity” to classify acceptable or permissive levels of rotating
machinery vibration. The parameter chosen to characterize “vibration
severity” is the RMS value of velocity in the frequency range from 600
to 6000 c/min (10 to 100 Hz). All references in this standard are to peak
velocity only. To convert to RMS (the value representative of the energy
content of the signal received) simply multiply the peak velocity reading
by 0.707.

10.2 Other conversion factors for simple harmonic motion that may be
required occasionally are given in the following chart:
Note: DO NOT USE decimal equivalents for mil values in the above
table such as 0.010, 0.0176 or 0.025 inches. Use whole numbers 10,
17.6 and 25 when converting to or from either system.

Note: Exact values from the nomograph are not required nor is it
necessary to have more significant numbers than the graph format
utilizes.
Note that all scales are logarithmic but approximations can be readily
made such as: 1/3 of the distance between adjacent graduations is 0.2,
½ the distance is about 0.3 and 2/3 of the distance between lines is
approximately 0.5. Use these values for easier nomograph data
manipulation.
