EMERSON: Portable machinery health monitor

-- 1 June 2007

Ads by Google



Emerson Process Management announces what it calls “a new innovation” for plant-wide predictive machinery health monitoring. Able to be carried into the field and attached to turbo machinery for continuous monitoring on a temporary basis, the CSI XP32 Machinery Health Expert fills the gap between the company’s two-channel portable analyzer and the permanently-installed online vibration monitor.

The CSI XP32 includes a transient processor for sleeve bearing turbo machinery and a PeakVue processor specifically for balance of plant rolling element machines and gearboxes. And it allows users to record hundreds of hours of continuous-time waveforms, monitor the machines live, and even play back the data as an "instant replay" from multiple camera angles.

Users can view seven different plots on every bearing of a machine with real-time updates. Orbits, shaft centerlines, bode/nyquist, waveforms, cascades and spectral plots are available live and simultaneously using full dual-monitor functionality. An easy navigator enables technicians to move efficiently from plot to plot.
