The invention relates to a monitoring process of the state of health of at least two vibration sensors of a twin turbomachine comprising a low-pressure body and a high-pressure body, a vibration sensor being located at the front of the turbomachine, a vibration sensor being located at the rear of the turbomachine, each of the sensors being configured to measure vibrations of the low-pressure and high-pressure bodies at the front and at the rear of the turbomachine, the process being executed in a processing unit (20) of the turbomachine communicating with each of the sensors and comprising the following steps: reception of the low-pressure (NBP) and high-pressure (NHP) speeds of the turbomachine and when said speeds are simultaneously in predetermined ranges, reception of the front and rear vibratory levels of the low- and high-pressure bodies registered by each sensor; determination of the average of the values of the vibratory levels of the low- and high-pressure bodies received over a predetermined reception period; determination of the state of health of said at least first and second vibration sensors from comparison of the average values of the vibratory levels of the low- and high-pressure bodies determined at predetermined thresholds.
A process for monitoring the state of health of at least two vibration sensors of a bypass turbomachine that comprises a low-pressure body and a high-pressure body, a front vibration sensor that is located at the front of the turbomachine and that measures vibration levels of the low-pressure body and the high-pressure body at the front of the turbomachine, a rear vibration sensor that is located at the rear of the turbomachine and that measures vibration levels of the low-pressure body and the high-pressure body at the rear of the turbomachine, the process being executed in a processing unit of the turbomachine that communicates with the front vibration sensor and with the rear vibration sensor, the process comprising:
A bypass turbomachine comprising:
