is required. This means that condition based maintenance or CBM can avoid equipment failure, excessive service costs, increased energy use and downtime. It is accepted that machine vibration analysis is a 'corner stone' of CBM but traditionally has been a specialist technique. Now the TPI 9080 Vibration Analyser changes that and provides an easy to use and reliable method for the Facilities Manager to monitor: • General equipment condition • Low frequency vibration – i.e. mounting security

• High frequency vibration – i.e. bearing and gearbox condition


visitor attractions. Because chemicals are not used, the treated area can be safely reoccupied within 60 minutes – even when it’s used for the preparation, distribution and storage of food.” The heat treatments used by qualified Dyno-Pest technicians eradicate all phases of insect development – eggs, larvae and adults. Cockroaches, wood boring insects, and bedbugs can be eradicated in one treatment. “We use clean, dry, odourless


chemical-free heat and raise the temperature to 140-150°C. This is fatal to pest insects within 60 minutes. What’s more the heat treatment we use can treat an entire building or just a small, hard to reach area,” said Ralph. If you are interested in finding out more about heat treatment, please visit the Dyno-Pest Stand 0920 where you can speak to a qualified Dyno-Pest surveyor. www.dynopest.co.uk


• Out of balance • Misalignment • Looseness To understanding the condition of pumps, motors, fans etc it is beneficial to monitor or 'trend' thier condition over time. The 9080 Vibration Analyser makes that easy with the included VibTrend software. Now anyone can be tasked with following a route of assets or machines to be monitored. Colour coded alarms provide an immediate indication of potential equipment failure while the VibTrend software can automatically trigger e-mailed exception reports to flag problems. Clearly condition based maintence


provides the Facilities Manager with an increased ability to perform maintence when it best suits the client and avoid unexpected equipment failure. Not only can this be used to audit the work of third party companies but is a powerful tool to add value and innovation when bidding for contracts.
