ON-LINE MONITORING THE EFFICIENT WAY

     The Results

          Too much data and not enough time
          … the typical scenario: you’re responsible for maintaining multiple machines and the condition monitoring systems
          you have provide lots of data, but you don’t have the time to evaluate which ones need attention, so what are your
          options:
              •  Hire an expert to analyze the data
              •  Send the data from each condition monitoring system to the supplier for a report
              •  Use an integrated system that will notify you when there is a problem and then an application to access the





           Active Alerts through your existing DCS (SCADA) system
           … with the PDTrac II system connected to your existing DCS system
           you can avoid hassles with network security and duplicity of
           systems.  The PDTrac II system outputs in real-time, the PD
           information from in ModBus 16-bit format that can easily be
           imported into any existing system.   That way you can have active
           alerts and notifications when further investigation is required.  DCS
           analysis can be simple – threshold alerts only, or perhaps combined
           with trends, or more elaborate to alert you what is the likely
           problem.  We will provide all the appropriate algorithms to suit
           your needs.







            Remote Access
            … once your DCS system has displayed an alert, then the PDTrac II system can be
            remotely accessed over ethernet using the PDTracPro software enabling you to further
            investigate the source of the alert.  Because the icons display issues, you will be able to
            quickly see the machines in your plant that have problems and why.  Click on the icons
            to access the data plots for further identification of the issues.







              Within the Databases
              … though the PDTrac II instrument continuously monitors, data is only stored once a day with
              labels when the Qm is above the range.
