Finding

Vibration level on the turbine unit at all measurement points found to acceptable as it is
evaluated with practice level of vibration limit for Ruston TB5000, and the compressor part is
evaluated with ISO 10816-8 as below:

Ruston TB5000 NA 7,0 9,0

Cylinder {lateral) 8,7 13,0 19,5
Cylinder {rod) 10,7 16,0 24,0

 However, there is huge difference of amplitude level at PT side in vertical direction where
current record is 3.564 mm/s rms (previous record was 0.842 mm/s rms).

Though, it doesn’t show any abnormality based on the spectral data as it is predominantly
by 1xPT speed and the amplitude ratio is not much different when compared to vibration level on
the vertical direction on the same point.

Overall vibration level at all measurement points on this unit are tabulated as below:
