SKF Multilog IMx-16

SKF SKF Multilog IMx-16 is listed as a Online Vibration Monitor within the Vibration Monitoring category. It is typically installed on rotating machinery sensors or as portable condition-monitoring equipment used throughout the machinery spaces. Its engineering role is to detect changes in vibration that can indicate imbalance, misalignment, bearing damage or other developing machinery faults. The complete model designation should be retained when matching drawings, certificates, service information and spare parts because neighboring variants may differ in configuration even when they share the same equipment family. The exact shipboard arrangement and interfaces remain installation-specific and should be checked against the vessel’s approved drawings and equipment documentation. Where an operating value, tolerance, wear limit or setting is not explicitly stated in the source data, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Common failures & inspection points

Sensor detachment or poor mounting can distort readings, seen as sudden signal changes unrelated to machinery condition
Cable or connector damage can cause intermittent or lost channels
Calibration drift can bias measurements and trend interpretation
Power or data-acquisition faults can stop recording or produce invalid channels
Incorrect measurement location or configuration can make trends inconsistent and difficult to compare

Service & Maintenance

Inspect sensor mounting, cable routing, connectors and data quality and compare trends at consistent operating conditions. Verify calibration status and investigate step changes before relying on alarm thresholds. Exact alert and danger limits must be based on the machinery, class and manufacturer documentation rather than assumed values.
