Modern methods and means of real-time condition monitoring of piston machines

The adequacy of the condition assessment of piston compressors of hazardous production, reliable and timely detection of faults and their causes, the risk rates of piston compressors safe operation are determined by the level of methodological basis development for the organization and operation algorithms of the soft-hardware of systems for piston compressors condition monitoring.

Nowadays, there are documents that define the basic requirements to the organization and the means of hazardous production facilities monitoring, but even for the experts in this field it is very difficult to orient oneself in the advertised capabilities of the systems. Thereby, there arises a need to range the methods and means of piston compressors condition monitoring and diagnostics.

The article dwells upon the development of condition and prospects of modern monitoring and diagnostic methods and means of piston compressors of hazardous process industries. The review of the condition control principles, implemented in nearly all the monitoring systems is made. The present article concentrates on technical means of monitoring systems.

The analysis of the methodology, techniques and principles of systems for real-time monitoring building is carried out. The article addresses the condition monitoring system of piston compressors in real-time COMPACS^®.
