What is the reason for high vibration of centrifugal fans

Oct 11, 2023

Centrifugal fans are commonly used equipment in industrial production, building ventilation, air conditioning, and other fields. However, during use, it is sometimes found that its vibration is too large, which not only affects the normal operation of the equipment, but also has adverse effects on the surrounding environment and personnel. So, what is the reason for the high vibration of centrifugal fans? Below, we will explore the reasons from multiple aspects and propose corresponding solutions.

 

1、 Unreasonable model design
The external structure, impeller, and speed of centrifugal fans can all affect the vibration of the equipment. If the model design is not reasonable, such as excessive impeller weight or fast speed, it may lead to excessive vibration. At this point, the vibration of the equipment can be improved by redesigning the impeller structure, adjusting the speed, and other methods.

 

2、 Inadequate manufacturing process
The manufacturing process of centrifugal fans is also an important factor affecting vibration. If burrs, misalignment, and eccentricity occur during the manufacturing process of components, it is easy to cause excessive vibration. Therefore, strict control of machining accuracy and quality inspection should be carried out during the production process to ensure that the precision of the components meets the requirements.

 

3、 Improper installation and use
The installation and use of centrifugal fans can also directly affect the vibration of the equipment. If the installation of the equipment is not standardized, such as weak foundations and unstable supports, it may lead to excessive vibration. Inappropriate usage methods, such as overloaded operation and prolonged non shutdown, can also exacerbate equipment vibration. Therefore, during installation and use, it is necessary to operate and maintain the equipment according to its performance requirements and corresponding safety regulations, standardize the use process, and reduce the possibility of vibration.

 

4、 Inadequate maintenance and upkeep
As an important production equipment, centrifugal fans must be regularly maintained, otherwise they are prone to malfunctions and vibration problems. If the components of the equipment are excessively worn or poorly lubricated, it can lead to increased equipment vibration. Therefore, regular maintenance can effectively avoid vibration caused by machine malfunctions.

 

The above are the possible reasons for high vibration of centrifugal fans. For different reasons, we can take corresponding solutions, such as improving model design, strengthening manufacturing processes, standardizing installation and use, and regular maintenance to reduce the impact of equipment vibration on work and the environment.
