淡然处事 发表于 2019-3-1 09:20
嗨Glowits,非常感谢您的图片和详细的回复。
最初,我认为风扇叶片可能正在接触风扇壳,但这只是另一种猜测。
一旦预热,第一台机组的风扇噪音在大约5分钟后肯定会降低,几乎达到我认为可接受/合理的水平(只是风扇噪音,听起来不像刀片触及的东西)。
杰夫,几点...... 1)你很幸运,你有权将其中一个单位归还给经销商。
在我的情况下,我检查了我们的经销商,他们没有库存,并被告知我必须通过安捷伦的保修处理它。
在我的情况下,本来应该花费大约两个星期的时间花了大约一个月,更不用说大约50美元的邮资和保险现金返还,即使它是DOA。
我后来才了解到,通常这些设备是交换的,而不是维修的 - 所以安捷伦不得不从马来西亚的工厂订购一个新设备 - 基本上我再次排队等候。
然后我被告知(大约一个月后)会有另一个延迟(可能长达2-4周)。
毋庸置疑,我对未使用该装置1-2个月的前景感到不满,特别是在我等了5个星期才交付第一个装置后,这个装置已经停产了。
那时,我升级了我的修理单,安捷伦就可以为我分配一个单元,在我升级后的几天内发货。
鉴于过多的维修延迟,我要求重置保修时钟,他们也这样做了。
再一次,一个好公司在质量问题上做得好的一个例子,所以我很感激。
2)至于我是否会保留这个,此时,我确实需要范围,我打算保留它。
也就是说,我对粉丝问题仍然不满意。
我在周末使用示波器,风扇噪音确实很大。
有时只是坐在使用集成支架的地方 - 风扇会变得噪音更大,噪音更小。
即使只是略微移动位置或倾斜几度变化也会使其振动/嘎嘎作响。
在我的情况下,我从来没有听过我称之为粉丝的“软呼呼”。
它总是听起来有点“振动”,好像有东西正在接触风扇叶片(或在附近振动)。
我仍然怀疑黑色接地电缆或相邻的风扇电源线,以及是否有可能由于风扇与这些电缆接近而导致噪音的情况。
虽然这似乎不会影响设备的运行,但它并没有像您期望的那种昂贵的产品那样花费数千美元。
我仍然希望安捷伦工程团队能够深入研究这个问题。
如果事实证明机箱内没有任何东西振动(例如电缆等),而这正是风扇本身的构建方式,那么我会花一两两美元来寻找一个没有这个问题的更好的风扇。
从长远来看,客户会更快乐,返回的单位更少(对于所有各方来说都是非常昂贵的),并且单位质量的印象会上升。
还有一种有趣的心理效应。
如果单位“听起来”破碎或边缘,那么你也倾向于不信任测量。
我意识到这不符合逻辑 - 但质量(好的或坏的)会产生围绕产品的光环,超越任何一个问题,你开始用更批判的眼光质疑其他事情。
也有可能是一批坏的粉丝或者这个零件有多个供应商。
由于这些产品在具有许多其他测试设备的生产环境中进行测试,因此生产人员甚至可能无法实现(或听到)风扇噪音,因为它会被周围的测试设备掩盖。
但是当在工作台上使用或站在低环境噪音的电气面板上时,风扇噪音会更加明显。
如果您也将安捷伦支持人员指向此主题,也许我们可以让工厂的某个人更认真地看待这一点,而不是将其视为非问题。
如果有些客户(比如我们)注意到这个问题涉及多个单位,那么它肯定值得进一步探索。
这可能不是他们的首要问题,但我认为应该是可以解决的问题。
在某些时候,我可能只是打开我的,并尝试不同地修饰电缆,看看是否有帮助。
这不是我想要做的,但我不想与安捷伦交换单位以找到一个“好的”,直到明确了解导致可变风扇噪音的原因。
请随时告诉我们您的情况,以便我们都可以学习并分享最新信息。
如果我能找到一种方法来制作高质量的录音,我可能会试试。
我尝试过一次使用我的iPhone,但它并没有出色。
我必须拿出别的东西......

Jeff,
A few points...
1) You are fortunate that you got an authorization to return one of the units to the reseller. In my case, I checked with our reseller and they had no inventory and was told I would have to process it through Agilent's Warranty. In my case, what originally was supposed to take about two weeks took about one month, not to mention about $50 out-of-pocket in postage and insurance to return it, even though it was DOA. I later learned that typically these units are swapped, not repaired -- and so Agilent had to order a new one from the factory in Malaysia -- and basically I waited again in the queue. I was then told (after about one month) that there would be another delay (maybe up to 2-4 weeks). Needless to say, I wasn't happy about the prospect of being without the unit for 1-2 months, particularly after I waited 5 weeks for delivery of the first unit, which was on back-order. At that point, I escalated my repair ticket and Agilent was able to allocate a unit to me, which shipped within a few days of my escalation.
Given the excessive repair delay, I requested that the warranty clock be reset, which they also did. Again, an example of a good company making good on a quality issue, so I'm appreciative.
2) As to whether I'll keep this one or not, at this point, I do need the scope and I plan to keep it. That said, I'm still less than satisfied with the fan issue. I was using the scope over the weekend and the fan noise was really variable. Sometimes just sitting perched using the integrated stand -- the fan would get noisier then less noisy. Even just moving the position slightly or a few degree change in tilt would cause it to vibrate/rattle more. In my case, I never just hear what I would call a "soft whirring" of the fan. It always sounds a bit "vibratory" as if something is touching the fan blade (or vibrating nearby). I'm still suspicious of the black grounding cable or the adjacent fan power cable and whether there could be a condition there that causes this noise due to some proximity of the fan with those cables. Although this doesn't appear to affect the operation of the unit, it just doesn't exude the kind of Agilent quality that you'd expect from a product that costs several thousand dollars. I still hope that the Agilent engineering team looks into this to get to the bottom of it.
If it turns out that nothing is vibrating inside the case (e.g. cables, etc) and it is just the way the fan itself is built, I would invest another dollar or two to find a better fan that doesn't have this issue. In the long run, customers will be happier, with fewer returned units (which is otherwise very expensive for all parties), and the impression of the quality of the unit will go up. There is also an interesting psychological effect. If the unit "sounds" broken or marginal, then you tend to distrust the measurements too. I realize it's not logical -- but quality (good or bad) creates an aura around the product that transcends any one issue and you begin to question other things about it with a more critical eye.
It's also possible that there is a bad batch of fans or that there are multiple suppliers for this part. And since these are being tested in a production environment with lots of other test equipment, the production people may not even realize (or hear) the fan noise as it would be masked by the surrounding test equipment. But when used on a workbench or while standing at an electrical panel with low ambient noise, then the fan noise is much more obvious.
If you also point your Agilent support person to this thread, perhaps we can get someone at the factory to take a more serious look at this and not dismiss it as a non-issue. If some customers (like us) are noticing this issue with multiple units, then it's certainly worthy of further exploration. It may not be their top issue, but its one that should be resolvable I would think. At some point, I may just open mine up and try to dress the cables differently to see if that helps. It's not what I want to do, but I don't want to keep swapping units with Agilent to find a "good one" until it's understood definitively what's causing the variable fan noise.
Please keep us posted on your situation so we can all learn and share the latest. If I can figure out a way to make a quality audio recording, I might try that. I tried it once using my iPhone, but it didn't come out too well. I'll have to come up with something else...
