TRIP MULTIPLIER
Text: That function provided in a monitor system to temporarily increase the alarm (Alert and Danger) set point values by a specific multiple (usually two or three). This function is normally applied by manual (operator) action during start-up to allow a machine to pass through high vibration speed ranges without excessive monitor alarm indications. Such high vibration speed ranges may include system resonances and other normal transient vibrations. Also called set point multiplier.
