An accelerometer can be mounted on the surface of the machine which will measure the vibrations acceleration this is usually integrated to velocity for the purposes of analysis. Velocity is usually measured in mm/s (millimeters per second) or IPS (inches per second) in the US) while acceration in usually measured in G (9.8 mm/s/s). To convert between vibration acceleration, velocity and displacement you can use the following free tool from vibronurse the link is (http://www.vibronurse.com/cmcalculator.html). The alternative method is to use proximity probes (which uses an eddy current coil) these will normally be fitted to the machine by the original manufacturer.

Will the victaulic coupling dampen the vibration from the source equipment?

The Victaulic system will dampen a small amount of the vibration from the source equipment due to the type of connection it is, pulse and axial forces due to the displacment of the product or the action of the delivery equipment or just the expansion of the piping will not be dampened. I believe there are fittings available to address the problem of vibration transfer. cheers

How can one measure the frequency of vibration accurately?

One can measure the frequency of vibration accurately using a device called a frequency counter. This device counts the number of vibrations per second, known as hertz (Hz), to provide an accurate measurement of the vibration frequency.
