A machine that is in its normal operating mode, or production state, is far from operating in a “steady state” condition. With other monitoring systems, an increasing load means
increasing vibration levels and false alarms. This can necessitate setting vibration alarms extremely high to account for all process scenarios or events. Much like a process automation system, the CSI 4500’s built-in Production State processor more accurately monitors process events such as speed inputs, changing load, temperature, tank level or relay closures. The CSI 4500 Machinery Health Monitor processes events, adapts its monitoring, and produces a real alarm when machine health changes versus a false alarm
when the load changes. Alarms are much tighter and false alarms are decreased. This adaptive strategy is not limited to adjusting alert levels; analysis types and the frequency of analysis can automatically be adapted as well.
Exception-based reporting drives you to the problem and
reduces troubleshooting time
Exception-based reporting allows the CSI 4500 to keep
a close watch on the assets, but only alert your maintenance
staff when the machine health changes. Exception-based reporting
produces specific alerts and decreases the amount of data
required for review when it is time to troubleshoot that
alert. With the CSI 4500, troubleshooting time can be reduced
90% through powerful analysis tools such as transient analysis
for turbines, PeakVue bearing
health technology, and customizable reporting capabilities.
