The PBS-4100 sounds complicated. Is it hard to operate?
The PBS-4100 is actually very easy to operate. The PBS-4100 system is able to do so many things because it actually combines four different tools into one system: • Vibration survey analyzer/tracking filter • Frequency spectrum analyzer • Digital oscilloscope/voltmeter • Balance analyzer The vibration survey feature displays engine vibration across any selected speed range. Both broadband and Nl synchronous vibrations are displayed, providing users with valuable information regarding how much of the total vibration is due to engine unbalance, and indicates the speeds at which the highest vibrations occur. The frequency spectrum feature provides a high-resolution, real-time 400 or 800 line spectrum of engine vibration amplitude versus frequency. Users can use the spectrum to quickly determine how much vibration each engine rotor and each engine accessory is causing. This information helps diagnose a wide assortment of engine problems. Many times this information saves users significant
