Demonstration Videos

  Product Testing using Constant Percentage Bandwith, CPB Analysis
Video presentation demonstrating Product Testing based on sound and vibration measurements using the PULSE Lite CPB Analyzer. The demonstration includes a comparison of the frequency spectra obtained measuring sound vs. vibration. Measurements are made on three electric motors from washing machines where two of them were known to have faults and it is shown how these faults can be seen in the measured spectra.
