Compressors
Prevent unplanned shutdowns, lost production, and HSE incidents with automated compressor monitoring.
Prevent unplanned shutdowns, lost production, and HSE incidents with automated compressor monitoring.
When compressors fail, it can mean significant downtime, extensive maintenance costs, unsafe operating conditions, and lost profitability. Emerson’s compressor monitoring solutions provide predictive diagnostics and actionable machinery health data that enable you to minimize unplanned outages, improve decision making, avoid HSE incidents, and extend the life of your critical assets.
Learn how proactive asset maintenance can result in a more reliable compressor
La vibración excesiva indica problemas con la cuchilla, los rodamientos, el eje o los acoplamientos que pueden causar la falla del compresor o una potencial parada de la unidad, y los enfoques habituales en la monitorización no garantizan la detección de la vibración. Las soluciones en línea de Emerson ofrecen la detección de vibraciones y del desgaste de rodamientos en tiempo real para evitar rápidamente reparaciones costosas, paradas de la planta y pérdidas de producción.
Improper installation can lead to shaft misalignment and excessive vibration, causing compressor damage and possible failure. Emerson’s patented technology has the capability to distinguish the root causes of rotor misalignment, detect relative bearing, and lubrication issues, and provide accurate asset health data to avoid compressor shutdowns and minimize maintenance costs.
Sudden changes in composition, flow, or suction pressure can trigger surge, which, if uncontrolled, can have catastrophic consequences. With Emerson’s compressor monitoring solutions, operators can analyze pressure data in real time to detect pre-surge conditions and implement anti-surge control strategies that ensure safe operation while improving energy efficiency.
As with all rotating equipment, compressor performance will deteriorate over time if left unchecked, resulting in increased energy usage and reduced throughput. Ineffective control algorithms and manual intervention can further reduce efficiency. However, with the predictive diagnostics and advanced control algorithms of Emerson’s compressor monitoring solutions, you can reduce energy consumption, improve efficiency, and increase the profitability of your operation.
