Cooling towers operate under constant mechanical stress, and even small vibrations can be early warnings of serious system failure. OBR Cooling Towers' Vibration Analysis Service provides precise, data-driven diagnostics to detect imbalance, misalignment, and mechanical wear, before they lead to costly outages.
Unchecked vibration can lead to:
Bearing Failures
Gearbox Damage
Shaft Misalignment
Fan Failure
These issues reduce system efficiency, increase energy consumption, and can result in unplanned downtime. With OBR’s expert vibration testing, you can stay ahead of problems, reduce repair costs, and extend the life of your equipment.
