Field Balancing in Texas and Louisiana
When a rotor cannot come out of the unit, Vi-TECH brings the balancing to it. Our technicians measure vibration to Category III practice, correct the imbalance in place and confirm the machine runs inside OEM limits before they leave.
Equipment we balance in place
- Induced and forced draft fans
- Cooling tower fans
- Blowers
- Vertical and horizontal pumps
- Motors and couplings
- Agitators and centrifuges
What you get
- Before and after vibration readings
- Correction weights and locations recorded
- Written report left with the unit owner
- A recommendation if the root cause is not imbalance, such as misalignment, looseness or bearing wear
