Description: Critical speed (nk) is the rotational speed at which acting dynamic forces cause a machine component (e. g. shaft, rotor) to vibrate at its natural frequency (also referred to as intrinsic frequency, fi) and can even result in resonant vibrations throughout the entire machine and pump set; Name: crit. Speed
Description: Speed of rotation at which the frequency of vibration (or its multiples) corresponds to the rotor resonant (lateral or torsional) ; Name: Critical speed
Description: Percent probability of a fault-free operation over the period of time specified under the reliability period under specified environmental conditions; Name: Reliability according to norm
