Hello, I am seeking information on the maintenance of redundant machinery in the plant and the recommended frequency for changeovers as part of routine operations. Are there any industry standards in place for this?

Resonance could be the underlying issue, but what are the acceptable operating parameters established by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM)? Surely, after producing numerous towers, the OEM has developed these parameters. Cooling tower structures and fans are prone to geometric deviations and harmonics unique to their design, which may not be present in other equipment. Modern vibration technology can detect even the smallest deviations. In the past, periodic inspections were conducted for fan hardware, blade pitch, and gears, with monitoring limited to an "earthquake" switch in case of extreme vibration. Today, advancements allow for better detection of deviations, although some may not pose a problem. Just like medical tests can detect issues, the solution may not always be clear. Food for thought!

Our company's various units collaborated to create a mutually agreed upon changeover machine list and operation plan. The operation team shared the changeover plan with the support of teams 2 and 3, while the machinery team shared concerns with the Condition Monitoring team regarding monitoring requirements based on criticality levels. Do we have any technical documents or standards for a changeover policy for different types of rotating machinery equipment? - Kavous Moradi
Hello Kavous, while I don't have a specific document to recommend offhand, I think you might find useful information from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). They published a range of standards relating to rotating machinery under their ISO 1940/1 guidelines. Additionally, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) might have the technical documents you’re seeking. It's always essential to maintain proper changeover procedures to ensure the longevity and efficiency of your machinery. Hope this helps!
