Fault identification criterion based on stator vibration characteristics.

Stator vibration characteristicsPerforming condition

Having only soft 2nd harmonic vibrationsNormal condition
The vibration at 2f is increased, while the other components generally keep stableSAGE exists
The vibration at 2f is decreased, but meanwhile vibrations at f, 3f, and 4f are increasedRISC exists
The vibration at 2f is firstly decreased and then increased; meanwhile, vibrations at f, 3f, and 4f are increasedCF exists
