ISO 13373-1 establishes general procedures for vibration-based condition monitoring and diagnostics of machines to detect developing faults and assess operational health. This standard defines measurement strategies, signal processing methods, and diagnostic logic applicable to diverse machine populations in industrial and operational environments. Maintenance departments, predictive maintenance service providers, and asset management teams use this methodology to optimise equipment uptime and plan cost-effective interventions. Accreditation ensures technically sound and reproducible monitoring data that supports evidence-based maintenance decisions and equipment reliability improvement.
What it measures
Vibration amplitude and frequency content across machine operating range
Broadband and narrowband vibration signatures
Trend progression and rate of change
Fault-specific frequencies and harmonics
Machine health status classification
