Proper Use of Vibration Transducers for Monitoring and Diagnostics of Plant Assets

Vibration sensors such as: proximity, velocity and accelerometer are used for measuring vibration. Proper selection of these sensors for specific applications is important to obtain correct vibration readings and problem diagnosis. Proximity transducer also called Eddy current probe or non-contact displacement transducer is used for monitoring the bearing clearance usage in a journal bearing. Journal bearings such as plain or tilting pad bearings are found in medium and large rotating machinery e.g. steam-turbine-generators, hydro-generators in Power Generation plants. They are also found in steam-turbine-compressors in the Oil & Gas industry. Linearity testing of proximity transducers is important to ensure that the readings displayed in the DCS or SCADA and Vibration Monitor are accurate to avoid false alarms and trips that may result in loss of production or profit and penalties from government. Also, most plants do not check the rotor shaft material of the machine and work only on the assumption that it is 4140 steel equivalent where a standard proximity transducer is calibrated. Now-a-days, smart transducers are available that come with configuration software to compensate or program the driver for various types of rotor shaft material.

Operationalizing Asset Integrity: A Practical Guide to Identifying and Managing Safety-Critical Equipment and Activities

The objective of this workshop is to give participants an awareness of how to generate an HSSE Case, create risk assessments and generate a list of HSSE-Critical Equipment and HSSE-Critical activities, as part of operationalizing Asset Integrity in the workplace. This is an interactive session where participants will learn by working together, to generate a set of identified HSSE-Critical Equipment and HSSE-Critical Activities for their respective industries (or alternatively a a hypothetical plant) through a step by step approach using risk management concepts and tools.

"Ensuring zero surprises and downtime with predictive analytics"

Abstract

Maintaining critical equipment to ensure high levels of reliability, availability, and performance is a primary focus of process engineers in every plant today. The amount of data an engineer needs to analyze effectively is growing steadily as industry incorporates digital technology. Challenging plant economics frequently dictate relentlessly increasing operational demands on ever-aging critical equipment. At the same time, staff budgets are shrinking, experienced people are retiring, and new staff need experience to maintain asset health efficiently. Maintaining efficient operation of aging assets is increasingly costly, while plant economics are challenged by budgets, experienced staff retirements, and training new staff. Technology exists to facilitate prediction of asset failure, allowing engineers to target maintenance costs more effectively. Real-time systems focused on this area of equipment-health monitoring are frequently referred to as equipment condition monitoring (ECM) or predictive asset management (PAM) systems.

Proposed Revisions to the DPWH Fleet Management Preventive Maintenance (PM) Guide Using Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) and Data Analytics

Abstract

The presentation aims to discuss the study with the end output of a Proposed New Preventive Maintenance (PM) Guide that would be used by the DPWH Central Office and its Regional and District Engineering Offices (DEOs) for the Maintenance and Management of the Government’s Land-based Fleet Nationwide. The proposed revisions in the PM Guide were derived by analyzing the failure modes and failure codes data captured over a four (4) year period, and then analyzed using a Data Analytics Software. In addition to this, also included in the study is the derivation of new PM interval checkpoints based on three (3) methods used in the Automotive Industry.
