Abstract

One of the problems with the pump at Paiton Power Plant is the vibration. Vibration occurs because the pump's natural frequency approaches its operational frequency, then resulting condition in resonance. If the pump is experiencing resonance, there will be a strengthening of the vibration which can cause damage to the components in it. The vibration absorber was chosen as a way to reduce the vibration. The purpose of the absorber design is to determine the constants and mass of the absorber so that the mass displacement of the equipment experiencing vibration becomes zero. Vibration absorber installation experiment was carried out to prove that there was a change in the natural frequency for the system installed with the absorber. Installation of the Vibration Absorber can reduce the vibration of the pump due to resonance up to 75% at the desired frequency.
