DVIA-P7000

Overview

Operation status inspection and vibration measurement were performed on the DVIA-P7000.

Inspection and vibration measurement were conducted with the equipment in IDLE state. (Equipment vibration typically occurs in the 10–30 Hz band.)

Overall performance appears reduced in the vibration measurement results, but comparing with graphs from the upper equipment Turn off state measured on 2023.04.14, upper vibration was measured higher due to equipment IDLE vibration.

Field Notes

When the equipment is in IDLE state, equipment vibration can occur in the 10–30 Hz band or high-frequency bands, and that vibration may be measured on the top plate.

Compared with data from the April 14, 2023 inspection, upper vibration is currently measured higher due to equipment IDLE vibration.

Complete Turn off of the upper equipment is required for accurate inspection and tuning of the vibration isolation platform.

Displacement Sensor

The accelerometer and displacement sensors correctly sense vibration changes and operate normally.

Z-axis (Vertical) Passive Transmissibility

In the Passive Transmissibility graph, the DVIA-P resonance peak below 10 Hz is output asymmetrically.

Resonance peaks from installation structure and utility exist at 10 Hz and in the 20–80 Hz band, and resonance peaks from equipment IDLE vibration are present.

In the Active Transmissibility graph, transmissibility above 0 dB in the 1–7 Hz band suggests vibration from installation structure, utility, and upper equipment IDLE vibration.

Multiple resonance peaks suspected from upper equipment IDLE vibration also exist in the remaining bands.

X-axis (Left to Right) Passive Transmissibility

In the Passive Transmissibility graph, the DVIA-P resonance peak at 10 Hz is output in the correct form.

A large resonance peak in the 35–50 Hz band is suspected to be from installation structure or equipment IDLE vibration.

In the Active Transmissibility graph, poor performance with transmissibility above 0 dB in the 1–10 Hz band is suspected to be from installation structure, utility, or equipment IDLE vibration.

A resonance peak from equipment IDLE vibration appears at 50 Hz.

Y-axis (Front to Back) Passive Transmissibility

In the Passive Transmissibility graph, the DVIA-P resonance peak below 10 Hz is output in a blunt form.

Resonance peaks from equipment IDLE vibration exist at 17 Hz and in the 40 Hz and 70 Hz bands.

In the Active Transmissibility graph, somewhat poor performance with transmissibility greater than −10 dB at 10 Hz is suspected to be from installation structure and utility effects. Resonance peaks from equipment IDLE vibration appear at 40 Hz and 70 Hz.

In the remaining bands, transmissibility is −10 dB or better and isolation operates correctly.

Z-axis (Vertical) VC curves

In the low-frequency band, vibration below VC-F is small and low damping is output due to proportional vibration characteristics, but the rise is large. This may be from equipment IDLE vibration or installation structure/utility environment.

In the graph above, vibration on the top plate is larger than the floor in the 10–60 Hz band; comparing with the Daeil UI Program Transmissibility graph, that vibration is suspected to be from upper equipment IDLE vibration.

Z-axis (Vertical) VC curves (23.04.14 측정 장비 Off 상태)

According to the April 2023 vibration measurement with equipment Turn off, correct isolation is confirmed in the 4–60 Hz band.

Therefore, the amplified VC curve measured on 23.12.12 can be judged to be influenced by equipment IDLE vibration.

X-axis (Left to Right) VC curves

In the low-frequency band, vibration below VC-F is small and low damping is output due to proportional vibration characteristics.

Performance is somewhat poor up to the 10 Hz band, but good performance is output thereafter.

X-axis (Left to Right) VC curves (23.04.14 측정 장비 Off 상태)

According to the April 2023 vibration measurement with equipment Turn off, correct isolation is confirmed in the 4–60 Hz band.

Therefore, the amplified VC curve measured on 23.12.12 can be judged to be influenced by equipment IDLE vibration.

Y-axis (Front to Back) VC curves

In the low-frequency band, vibration below VC-F is small and low damping is output due to proportional vibration characteristics, but the rise is large. This may be from equipment vibration or installation structure/utility environment.

At the 50 Hz band, vibration on the top plate is larger than the floor; comparing with the Daeil UI Program Transmissibility graph, that vibration is suspected to be from upper equipment IDLE vibration.

Y-axis (Front to Back) VC curves (23.04.14 측정 장비 Off 상태)

According to the April 2023 vibration measurement with equipment Turn off, correct isolation is confirmed in the 4–60 Hz band.

Therefore, the amplified VC curve measured on 23.12.12 can be judged to be influenced by equipment IDLE vibration.
