Software and hardware for the diagnosis and condition monitoring of piston machines

Practical implementation of condition monitoring systems of piston machines and piston-type compressors of petrochemical complex requires the creation of state-of-the-art firmware, as well as meets the requirements for the safe operation of the monitoring systems in explosive areas. Therefore, the development of firmware for monitoring systems of piston machines of petrochemical complex covering requirements of the minimum cost strategy of the systems, and ensuring the creation of automated control systems for the safe operation of resource across the enterprise, is problem number one at present.

The present level of development of information-measuring technique makes it possible to organize the collection and processing of data both synchronously and asynchronously on multiple channels with reference to the angle of shaft rotation in a given range of frequencies - from shares and units of hertz to several megahertz. Given that the rate of failure is limited, based on the appropriate period of measuring channels survey, the use of series-parallel distributed data structure is the most appropriate for condition monitoring of centrifugal and piston-type compressors. In recent years, automatic monitoring system of refineries and petrochemical complexes COMPACS^® are widespread, meeting all the requirements, implementing the strategy of minimum cost of diagnostic and monitoring system and ensuring the creation of automated monitoring systems of safe operation of resource across the enterprise.
