Shaft & Belt Alignment
Shaft & Belt Alignment When shafts and belts on rotating equipment are misaligned, the “Risk of Costly, Unplanned Machine Downtime” rises dramatically. Failure to align the shafts and belts properly will increase the amount of stress on the units, resulting in a range of potential problems and serious impact. Shaft and belt misalignment should be […]
In-Situ Balancing
In-Situ Balancing The most efficient method of monitoring and correcting a machine’s balance is while it is in its “Usual Operational Site”. This remove the need to dismantle and transport parts for investigation. Also, a machine may need to be almost completely stripped down to reach parts that may need balance correction. In-situ balancing can […]
Performance Analysis
Performance Analysis Field testing of gas turbines, compressors, reciprocating engines and other machineries has become increasingly common due to the need to “Verify Efficiency, Power, Fuel Flow, Capacity and Etc” to ensure optimized performance and evaluation of machine’s condition. The performance test in the field is often necessary to assure that it meets the “Performance […]
Power Quality Monitoring
Power Quality Monitoring Power quality monitoring is the process of “Acquiring, Analyzing, and Interpreting Measurement Data to Offer Practical Business Insights”. Voltage and current are continuously tracked by monitoring systems, which then analyze and interpret raw data using intelligent algorithms with little to no human involvement. It is performed to “Ascertain the Root Cause and […]
Partial Discharge Testing
Partial Discharge Testing Testing & Monitoring of Partial Discharges allow for the “Online or Offline Detection of Air Voids Inside Solid Insulation and Probable Insulation Failure” in MV/HV/EHV termination, cables, switchgear, transformers, busbars, motors, and generators caused by ionisation of the air, resulting in arcing, tracking, and corona. To check the integrity of the insulation […]
Motor Signature Analysis
Motor Signature Analysis Using a method known as motor current signature analysis, the “Operational State of an Induction Motor can be Ascertained without Disturbing Operation”. It detects an electrical signal using both current & voltage components and detects early-stage defects. As a result, it is crucial for shielding against harm and identifying motor failure. Motor […]
Motion Amplification
Motion Amplification Motion Amplification detect “Subtle Movement and Convert that Movement to a Level Visible with the Naked Eye”. By turning every pixel in the camera into a sensor, it takes millions of measurements in a fraction of a second and it does this with no physical connection to your machinery or equipment. It uses […]
Modeling and Simulation
Modeling and Simulation “A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words”. This is especially true when it comes to understanding some of the complex, dynamic problems that plague operating machinery. A wide variety of animation techniques such as Operating Deflection Shape (ODS), Experimental Modal Analysis (MA), Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) are […]
Filtration and Purification
Filtration and Purification Maintaining clean oil is one of the best investments for an organization can make, yet “Contamination often Remains an Overlooked Factor” behind premature machinery failure and diminished lubricant life. With the cost of oil, increased desire to minimize usage and waste, and the need to prolong the life of equipment, the economic […]
Valve Leak Detection
Valve Leak Detection Through valve leaks that go unnoticed can accumulate into huge losses, which limit overall plant output and productivity. Early leak detection allows “Repairs to Take Place as soon as Leaks are Identified”, which limits the hazard and economic cost of wasted resources. Valve leak monitoring estimates the amount of gas or liquid […]
