Joseph Fourier is Way More Cool than Louis Vuitton or Christian Dior
Much of our vibration analytics today are still based on Fourier Transform which analyzes complex vibration by superpositioning a variety of sines and cosines waves of different but related frequencies.
Vibration Monitoring of Control Valves Prevents Unplanned Shutdowns
Emerson's Shawn Anderson teamed with a recycled paper mill staff member and their local business partner on an Emerson Exchange presentation, Vibration Monitoring of Control Valves Prevents Unplanned Shutdowns. Here is the presentation abstract: Two control valves in...
Multi-parameter Condition Monitoring for Plant Asset Reliability
Across many process manufacturing and producing industries, falling prices are driving the need for increased efficiency and reliability, as well as reduced costs. While optimizing process control can yield gains, so can applying technology to the condition of the...
Avoiding Cooling Tower Unplanned Downtime
Cooling tower technology used in many industrial processes dates its history back to the 19th century: Cooling towers originated out of the development in the 19th century of condensers for use with the steam engine.[2] Condensers use relatively cool water, via...
Avoid Pumps Causing Unplanned Shutdowns
Update and bump: A recorded version of this webinar is now available. Visit here for a listing of other recorded & archived webinars. Original post: An unplanned shutdown can ruin your whole day, or two, or three… Not only do these unplanned shutdowns have impact on...
Condition Monitoring of Critical Mining Conveyors
In the equipment-intensive mining industry, monitoring the health of conveyors is critical to overall productivity, as Emerson's Douglas Morris highlights in today's post. In mining, there are two ways to move material from the pit to the processing plant: trucks or...
Applying Wireless Vibration Monitoring in Electrical Power Stations
In a recent ME Plant & Maintenance article, Wireless Vibration Monitoring –improves reliability and enhances safety (pdf), a rotating machinery engineer describes how his power station used a wireless vibration transmitter to avoid shutting down a turbine...
Cooling Tower Wireless Condition Monitoring Webinar
In a recent Automation World column, The Future is Attainable with Today's Automation, Emerson Process Management's former president, John Berra, noted: The number one issue in process plants is the disruptive cost of an unplanned shutdown. And the number one cause of...
Essential Asset Monitoring – Pump Demonstration
In an earlier post, Remote Monitoring of Essential Equipment, we shared how wireless vibration sensors were making it possible to monitor assets previously not deemed critical enough for wired, continuous vibration monitoring. Here is a 5:18 YouTube video, Essential...
ISA Automation Week-Monitoring Essential Assets
ISA Automation Week is happening this week in Orlando, Florida. If you're there, you may want to see Emerson's Nikki Bishop's presentation, Essential Asset Monitoring: The Gateway to Improved Process Reliability. She'll be presenting on Wednesday at 3:15 to 4:45pm in...
Vibration Monitoring Improves Wind Turbine Availability
Rotating machinery including wind turbines are subject to wear and tear over time. Emerson's Douglas Morris, a member of the alternative energy team, shares how vibration-monitoring equipment can help avoid unplanned downtime and costly maintenance. The United States'...
