4 / 10

What is a key advantage of using condition monitoring for meeting classification survey requirements?

D) It reduces fuel consumption

C) It helps identify problems early, allowing repairs before major surveys

A) It allows for the indefinite postponement of surveys

B) It extends machinery life by eliminating the need for maintenance

5 / 10

How does condition monitoring support classification surveys for machinery?

B) It provides real-time data, reducing the need for extensive physical inspections

D) It automates survey reports

A) It replaces the need for surveys entirely

C) It allows the machinery to be disassembled more frequently

6 / 10

Which condition monitoring technique is specifically used to detect metal wear particles in engine lubricants?

C) Pressure monitoring

A) Oil sampling and analysis

B) Ultrasonic testing

D) Visual inspection

7 / 10

For engines and compressors, which monitoring method helps detect variations that could indicate component wear or leakage?

B) Cylinder pressure monitoring

D) Visual inspection

A) Fuel flow analysis

C) Regular cleaning

8 / 10

How does condition monitoring align with the goals of classification surveys?

D) By documenting irregular performance only when breakdowns occur

B) By eliminating surveyors' roles

A) By ensuring machinery meets safety and performance standards consistently

C) By only performing checks during survey dates

9 / 10

Which of the following is a primary example of condition monitoring used to detect misalignment or wear in rotating machinery?

C) Vibration analysis

A) Oil pressure analysis

D) Routine cleaning

B) Temperature checks
