This content will delve into the application of predictive maintenance techniques ($\text{Predictive Maintenance - PdM}$) is applied to highly important industrial assets, including pump and compressor systems, with an emphasis on the use of modern technology:
2.1. Importance of pump and compressor systems
- Key Role: Describes pumps and compressors as the "heart and lungs" of almost every industrial plant (e.g., energy, chemical, manufacturing).
- Impact of Failure: Unplanned downtime of these machines results in lost production and very high repair costs.
2.2. The heart of$\text{PdM}$: Data collection with$\text{IoT}$ Sensor
- Installation$\text{IoT}$: Explains the installation of smart sensors at key pump and compressor locations to collect real-time data.
- Vibration: Key information for identifying misalignment, unbalance, or bearing failures.
- Temperature: Abnormal changes indicate friction or overwork.
- Pressure/Flow Rate: Indicates performance and blockage.
- Current/Power: Increased power consumption may indicate a mechanical problem.
2.3. Data analysis to detect abnormalities ($\text{Data Analytics}$ & $\text{Anomaly Detection}$)
- Baseline Modeling: Use historical data to create a model of a machine operating in normal, healthy conditions.
- Predictive analytics ($\text{Predictive Analytics}$): Use techniques$\text{Machine Learning}$(such as$\text{Anomaly Detection}$and$\text{Classification}$Algorithms) for:
- Compare: Detect data patterns that deviate from normal conditions in real time.
- Alert: Issue an advance warning when an anomaly is detected to be developing into a disaster.
2.4. Benefits and delivery of value$\text{PdM}$
- Failure prediction: Know in advance which parts are about to fail and how much of their remaining life (Remaining Useful Life - RUL) they have.
- Improving planning: Shifting from reactive or preventive repairs to prescriptive repairs allows for optimal parts procurement and technician scheduling.
- Reduce costs: Reduce overall maintenance costs, reduce widespread damage, and reduce production losses.
