Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of monitoring devices and equipment, and in particular to a three-axis vibration monitoring device for a boiler induced draft fan. Background Technology

[0002] The induced draft fan is a core component of the power plant boiler ventilation system. It provides sufficient oxygen for boiler combustion and exhausts flue gas and waste gases by supplying and exhausting air into the boiler, maintaining stable air pressure and volume within the furnace. It plays a crucial role in ensuring boiler combustion efficiency and operational safety. As a moving piece of equipment, the critical components of the induced draft fan are more prone to failure during high-speed rotation or transmission than the stationary structural parts of the boiler body. Failures can range from minor issues like reduced ventilation and flue gas pollution to severe problems like boiler malfunction, endangering lives and causing significant economic losses. Vibration failures of the induced draft fan pose a serious threat to the production safety of power plant boilers. Therefore, strengthening the monitoring of the induced draft fan's operating status is imperative to reduce potential safety hazards.

[0003] As a rotating moving equipment, vibration is a significant characteristic of induced draft fan operation. Currently, monitoring the performance of vibration signals is the core means of assessing the health status of moving equipment. Therefore, timely detection of induced draft fan faults based on vibration signal characteristics is crucial and feasible for ensuring the production safety of power plant boilers.

[0004] Currently, vibration monitoring of boiler induced draft fans requires placing vibration sensors in multiple locations on the fan casing, typically in at least three directions (X, Y, and Z) to monitor the three-axis vibration. However, the complex on-site environment often makes it difficult to simultaneously place sensors in the correct directions. Furthermore, speed sensors cannot be placed simultaneously, resulting in poor vibration monitoring performance for boiler induced draft fans.
