摘要：Rotary machines are recognized as crucial equipment in power stations, petrochemical plants, wire drawing, paper and automotive industry that require precise and efficient performance. Bearings are the prime and most widely used mechanical parts in rotational equipment and are primary cause of breakdowns in machines, as they experience lot of wear and tear. Such malfunctions can lead to costly shutdowns, lapses in production, and even human casualties. To minimize machine downtimes, a sensitive and robust monitoring system is needed to detect faults in their early stages and to provide warnings of possible malfunctions for preventive maintenance. Such a monitoring system can reduce maintenance costs, avoid catastrophic failures and increase machine availability, thereby increasing efficiency of the plant and the profit. In the present paper the design and development of an instrument is considered for detecting the faults associated with bearings
