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

At EKG M&E Sdn Bhd, we offer comprehensive vibration troubleshooting services for air-cooled chillers, aimed at identifying the root causes of abnormal vibrations and resolving them before they lead to costly failures or energy inefficiencies. Unusual vibrations can be symptoms of deeper mechanical or structural problems involving fans, compressors, motors, bearings, or mounting systems. Our expert team uses advanced tools to accurately diagnose and resolve these issues with minimal downtime.

Why Vibration Troubleshooting Is Essential

• Prevents component wear and premature failure

• Reduces energy waste and system inefficiencies

• Avoids unplanned shutdowns and emergency repairs

• Enhances cooling performance and operational safety

• Supports predictive maintenance and system longevity

Common Vibration Issues We Resolve

• Fan blade imbalance or motor misalignment

• Compressor mounting issues or internal wear

• Loose bolts, base frame shifts, or structural resonance

• Bearing wear, lubrication failure, or shaft runout

• Electrical harmonics from VFDs causing motor vibration

Our Vibration Troubleshooting Process

Initial Visual and Mechanical Inspection

We start by inspecting all mechanical components such as fans, motors, compressors, couplings, and supports for visible signs of wear, misalignment, or damage.

Advanced Vibration Measurement

Using triaxial vibration sensors, accelerometers, and FFT analyzers, we measure vibration amplitude and frequency to detect:

• Imbalance

• Misalignment

• Looseness

• Resonance

• Bearing defects

Component-Specific Analysis

We isolate the vibration source—fan, motor, compressor, or structural frame—and conduct targeted checks like:

• Laser shaft alignment

• Dynamic balancing of fan blades

• Bearing condition evaluation

Root Cause Identification & Recommendations

After analysis, we provide a full report outlining:

• Detected vibration patterns and their sources

• Severity level and urgency

• Corrective actions (e.g., realignment, part replacement, balancing)

Benefits of Vibration Troubleshooting

• Restores quiet, efficient operation

• Prevents long-term damage to high-cost components

• Enhances system reliability and uptime

• Reduces maintenance and operational costs

• Supports safe operation in mission-critical environments
