Abstract / scope
ISO 13373-7:2017 gives guidelines for specific procedures to be considered when carrying out vibration diagnostics of various types of machine sets in hydraulic power generating and pump-storage plants (hydropower units). It is intended to be used by condition monitoring practitioners, engineers and technicians and provides a practical step-by-step vibration-based approach to fault diagnosis. In addition, it includes a number of examples for a range of machine and component types and their associated fault symptoms.
