Partial Discharge Testing: Online And Offline Partial Discharge

Partial Discharge Testing / By

Partial discharges are small discharges that take place between two electrodes. These minor discharges primarily occur in a few select areas around the insulation. Unbalanced electrical stress may be the root cause of these partial discharges. Catastrophic failures could result from these undetected partial discharges.  There are techniques to detect these partial discharges before failure …

Cloud-based Vibration Monitoring: A Defence Against Unplanned Downtime in Machines

Cloud based Vibration Monitoring / By

A combination of instruments called a vibration monitoring system is used to monitor one or more metrics to spot changes in the health of a machine. Monitoring these variables enables the early detection of flaws such as imbalance, bearing issues, looseness, misalignment, and others. Industrial wired accelerometers are currently being replaced worldwide by new vibration …

Guidelines for Condition Based Maintenance

Condition Based Maintenance / By

What Is Condition Based Maintenance? Condition-based maintenance is performed with the help of monitoring the condition of a machine to determine if the machine requires repair or maintenance.  The machinery’s health or condition is assessed with the help of visual inspections, sensors, and multiple readings. The data signals retrieved from these processes show if the …

Control Valves For Demanding Duties

Control Valves For Demanding Duties

1 Comment / Control Valves For Demanding Duties / By

Flowrox control valves are designed for demanding control applications in which conventional valves encounter problems with wear due to increased turbulence. Controllability can be further improved with conical sleeves (reduced ported for the exact CV required) or smart positioners. Elastic sleeves have been applied for improved wear resistance.
