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.
