Air-Cooled Chiller Noise and Vibration Inspection – EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

At EKG M&E Sdn Bhd, we offer comprehensive noise and vibration inspection services for air-cooled chillers, helping you identify and eliminate the root causes of excessive sound and mechanical instability. Unusual noise and vibration can signal deeper issues such as imbalanced components, loose fittings, bearing wear, misalignment, or structural resonance—all of which can affect performance, safety, and energy efficiency.

Why Inspect Noise and Vibration Together?

• Noise often indicates underlying vibration problems

• Early detection helps avoid equipment damage and costly downtime

• Reduces disruptive noise levels in commercial or sensitive environments

• Supports preventive maintenance and long-term reliability

• Enhances occupant comfort and system performance

What We Inspect

• Compressors (vibration and internal noise)

• Fan motors and blades (balance, looseness, noise emission)

• Bearings and couplings

• Mounting structure and base (for resonance and movement)

• Panel rattling, pipe vibration, and airflow noise

Our Noise and Vibration Inspection Process

Visual and Auditory Survey
We start with a thorough physical inspection and listen for humming, rattling, knocking, or grinding sounds during system operation.

Sensor-Based Vibration Testing
We install vibration sensors and accelerometers on key components to record vibration amplitude and frequency for accurate diagnostics.

Acoustic Analysis
We use sound level meters and frequency analyzers to detect and pinpoint noise sources and determine whether they’re mechanical or airflow-related.

Root Cause Identification
We trace abnormal vibration or noise back to its origin—whether it's a fan imbalance, misaligned shaft, worn bearing, or loose mounting.

Reporting and Recommendations
Our detailed report includes:

• Identified noise and vibration issues

• Severity levels and potential risks

• Corrective actions (balancing, realignment, tightening, part replacement)

Benefits of Noise and Vibration Inspection

• Improves chiller stability and cooling efficiency

• Prevents component failure and premature wear

• Enhances safety and environmental comfort
