DIROM - Technical Description
DIROM serves for vibration monitoring of rotating machines as a supplement to quasi-static process diagnostics.Usually, the vibration sensors are attached on the outside of the machine structure. Thus, even units that are already in operation can be efficiently retrofitted and the vibration behavior can be continuously monitored.The normal vibration behavior consists of the continuous basic vibrations of motor and bearings as well as external influences, such as flow excitation. If damages appear in bearings, couplings or shafts, this causes a change to the monitoring parameters, from which type and size of the damage can be derived. In addition to the vibration analysis, DIROM enables the user to record all relevant data of the monitored objects, such as motor or bearing temperatures, mass flows, pressures or oil analysis results. The communication with the I&C system can be implemented via an OPC or TXP interface. Upper or lower threshold violations trigger a warning or alarm message.In this way, beginning damages can be detected and monitored ahead of scheduled maintenance before major problems arise.Permanently installed sensors with distributed acquisition units guarantee the continuous availability of current data. Mobile devices provide flexibility for the expansion of monitoring. |
