Dangers of pipeline vibration
The rotating of the equipment and the medium flowing in the pipe will cause mechanical vibration with low-intensity. The dangers of pipeline vibration are mainly as the following.
Harm to the worker
Pipeline vibration will interfere with the vision of the worker and make the worker have poor efficiency. The worker will feel fired, resulting in accidents. Working in a vibrating environment with considerable strength for a long time may cause greater harm to the worker.
Harm to the building
The building structure of some buildings will be damaged due to the difference in vibration strength and frequency of the pipeline. Common damage such as cracks of foundation and walls, peeling of the wall, sliding of the stones and even deformation of the foundation of the building will occur.
Harm to the the precision instrument
Pipe vibration will affect the normal operation of the precision instruments, accuracy and reading speed of the scale reading of the instrument, and even causing the scale reading not to be read. If the vibration is great, the service life of the instrument will be directly affected and the instrument will even be damaged.
Harm to the system's main equipment
Long-term pipeline vibration causes uneven output of the main equipment of the system, affecting the mechanical performance and normal operation of the main equipment.
Causes of pipe vibration
The following are the causes of pipe vibration
- Motor vibration causing pipe vibration
- Pump vibration causing pipe vibration
- The water supply system causing the pipe to vibrate
- The compressed air system causing the pipe to vibrate
Take effective measures to eliminate pipe vibration so as to reduce the dangers based on the above causes.
