Certification Training Category III according to ISO 18436-2 - Vibration Condition Monitoring
Training objective
The Category III course is intended for people who are confident with spectrum analysis but who wish to push on and learn more about signal processing, time waveform and phase analysis, cross-channel testing, machine dynamics, and fault correction. If you wish to truly advance in vibration analysis and be able to run a successful condition monitoring team, then you are ready for this course. In this training course you will learn how to diagnose all common fault conditions on rolling element and plain bearing machines using spectra, high frequency detection techniques, time waveforms, phase readings and other techniques to diagnose faults. You will also learn about machine dynamics (natural frequencies, resonance, etc.), how to perform resonance tests and how to correct resonance problems. The course also covers your analyser's single-channel and cross-channel measurement capabilities. Upon completion of the CAT III course, you will be able to set up and run a successful vibration test. Once you have completed the training, you can sit the exam with confidence and become certified to ISO 18436-2 Category III.

Further information
This training course will be supported by special training videos covering every topic provided by Mobius Institutes Certification according to ISO 18436-2 is carried out by the internationally respected Mobius Institute Board of Certification (MIBoC). The MIBoC certification is accredited to ISO/IEC 17024.
After Certification you will receive a digitally encrypted certificate, an ID card (optional), and a personalized logo that you should use in email signatures and elsewhere that you want people to know about your achievements. To obtain the Mobius ISO Category III certificate, you must successfully complete this training course and achieve a minimum of 70% in the certification exam (100 multiple choice questions, 4 hours). A minimum of 36 months prac-tical experience in vibration analysis is also required and must be verified by an independent person. In addition, you must have been previously certified to Category II by a certification body approved by the Mobius Institute Board of Certification in order to meet the eligibility requirements for the official post-training examination.
