About the Training

Category III Vibration Analysts are qualified to establish, direct, and or perform programs for condition monitoring and diagnostics of machines including spectral, waveform, and orbit analysis. Category III certified Vibration Analysts shall be qualified to perform minor corrective actions involving operating deflection shapes, single-plane balancing, and diagnostic testing.

Minimum Experience Required: 36 Months

Minimum Training Hours: 90 hours (38 hours + VI Category II)

Recommended Vibration Training meeting requirement: Basic Machinery Vibration - CAT III, Balancing of Rotating Machinery - CAT III

The online training class will commence on soon, and will run for 18 sessions. The class will be conducted every Monday to Saturday, from 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM, and will last for 2 hours per day. If necessary, the number of sessions may be extended.
