Abstract: A method that utilizes signals from an accelerometer in resonant frequency bands or high frequency bands to, in a cost-effective manner, measure wear particle penetration of lubricant and lubricant degradation, both of which greatly affect prediction of residual service life; and, using as a basis these measurements of wear particle penetration and lubricant degradation, enables accurate estimation of residual service life for rolling bearings in the early stages.

Abstract: Degradation of the lubricant due to contamination of the lubricant with wear particles or moisture, which greatly affects the service life of rolling bearings, can be detected in a cost-effective manner through the use of a resonance frequency band signal or high-frequency signal of an accelerometer, and the service life of a rolling bearing can be estimated with high precision at an early stage on the basis of the detected state of the wear particles and lubricant.

Abstract: A vibration information transmission apparatus for improving efficiency of field wiring of a vibration monitoring/analyzing system includes transmitters (11-1 to n) for converting vibration information from vibration sensors (2-1 to n) for detecting vibration of an object to be measured, into an electric signal and outputting the electric signal to a digital network (DN). The transmitters (11-1 to n) includes in the same casing, a transducer circuit (18) for converting the vibration information from the vibration sensors (2-1 to n) into an analog electric signal, an A/D conversion circuit (19) for converting the analog electric signal from the transducer circuit (18) into a digital signal, and a network interface (20) for outputting the digital signal from the A/D conversion circuit (19) to the digital network (DN).
