Air-Cooled Chiller Fan Vibration Assessment – EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

At EKG M&E Sdn Bhd, we offer professional fan vibration assessment services for air-cooled chillers, ensuring the safe and efficient operation of your chiller’s fan system. Vibration issues in fan assemblies can lead to excessive wear, noise, energy loss, and even catastrophic failure if left unchecked. Our assessment helps detect and address imbalances, alignment issues, loose components, or bearing failures—before they become costly problems.

Why Fan Vibration Assessment Matters

  • Prevents mechanical damage to motors, blades, and housings

  • Enhances airflow efficiency and cooling performance

  • Reduces energy consumption and noise levels

  • Supports predictive maintenance and long-term reliability

  • Minimizes unplanned downtime and costly repairs

What We Assess

  • Fan blade balance and condition

  • Motor and shaft alignment

  • Bearing integrity and mounting security

  • Resonance or structural vibration in fan supports

  • Vibration levels under varying load conditions

Our Fan Vibration Assessment Process

Visual and Operational Inspection

We start with a detailed inspection of the fan assembly, motor mountings, and blades to identify visible wear, damage, or misalignment.

Sensor-Based Vibration Monitoring

We install accelerometers and vibration sensors on the fan housing, motor, and base to measure frequency, amplitude, and direction of vibration.

Dynamic Load Testing

The fan is assessed under real operating conditions to detect load-related vibration anomalies, which are often missed during idle checks.

Analysis and Fault Detection

Using FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) and waveform analysis, we pinpoint issues such as:

  • Unbalanced fan blades

  • Worn bearings or motor couplings

  • Loose bolts or shifting mounts

  • Misaligned motor shafts

Detailed Reporting and Recommendations

We provide a full report including:

  • Vibration readings with severity levels

  • Diagnosed issues and potential failure risks

  • Actionable recommendations (balancing, realignment, part replacement)

Benefits of Fan Vibration Assessment

  • Prevents major mechanical failures

  • Ensures quiet, energy-efficient operation

  • Extends the lifespan of fan motors and bearings

  • Enhances chiller cooling performance and airflow

  • Supports predictive maintenance planning
