A smartphone-based vibration dataset for induction motor fault diagnosis under different speed and load conditions.

Induction motors are foundational components across industrial applications, valued for their inherent robustness, operational simplicity, and cost-efficiency. Maintaining their reliable function is paramount for a wide range of mechanical and electrical systems. However, they are prone to various mechanical and electrical faults, such as bearing defects, rotor issues, and voltage imbalances, which can significantly impair their performance and reliability. This study presents a novel vibration dataset for induction motor fault diagnosis, uniquely acquired using a smartphone-based inertial sensor rather than conventional industrial accelerometers. Vibration signals were recorded along three orthogonal axes (gx, gy, gz), alongside gravity-compensated acceleration components (guserx, gusery, guserz), enabling detailed analysis of both raw and gravity-free vibration characteristics. Data were collected under diverse conditions, including healthy operation and several fault types, across varying rotational speeds and load states. The dataset features long-duration vibration recordings sampled at 100 Hz, suitable for both time-domain analysis and window-based feature extraction. Its inclusion of multiple operating speeds and load conditions is ideal for studying the impact of operational variability on fault signatures. By leveraging low-cost and readily accessible smartphone sensors, this dataset supports practical and accessible vibration data acquisition for supporting the development, benchmarking, and validation of data-driven fault diagnosis methods. This resource is expected to significantly advance research in condition monitoring of induction motor, particularly for machine learning and signal processing applications using vibration data.
