Condition Monitoring
Installation and Startup
This discussion will center on the importance of fabrication/repairs, installation and startup practices. It’s difficult to overstate the essential nature of the standards, procedures and practices in this area for the reliability of a given plant.

Filtration Prolongs Oil Life, Protects Equipment
Filtering new and used oil prolongs oil life and protects equipment from wear.
Studies have shown that as much as 70% of all premature machine failures can be attributed to contamination. To prevent these failures, it is important to purify the new oil as it comes into the facility and then keep it clean throughout its life. By establishing an ISO code cleanliness goal and maintaining it, you will extend the life of the oil and the equipment.

Vibration Tracking – The Looking Glass Technique – See the Invisible
Incredible as it may seem, the vibration (or at least a large part of it) can be detected through video recording with incredible resolution. Saving a huge number of hours in studies that before were time consuming if not impossible to do. All of this using Vibration Tracking.
So, what is the Vibration Tracking? And better yet, what is it for?

Continuous Monitoring Systems: Choosing the Frequency of Data Collection
The chemical processing industry incorporates a broad range of machinery, both rotating and reciprocating, which are monitored using various types of sensors and other advanced technologies that measure equipment performance/health. The determining factor as to what must be monitored and how to do so is the criticality of the equipment, based on its importance to the process and/or operation.

The Reliability Engineer’s Guide to Understanding IIoT Device, LAN, and WAN Security
As wireless sensor technology begins to take the leading edge within the industrial internet of things community, a new era of data security has emerged that requires diligent thought and consideration on the part of end users, system integrators, and key stake holders. Critical machine health and process data being transmitted wirelessly and hosted internally as well as externally creates an entirely new series of security concerns that must clearly be understood to maximize the value of the technology. This presentation will focus on the key security tools available to end users to ensure the security of their data when deploying wireless sensor networks and hosting data internally as well as externally to their organizations.

Important Aspects about Condition Monitoring
Technology in predictive maintenance is growing fast, and so is Condition Monitoring which is one of the its most important activities. In particular, the wireless sensors in Condition Monitoring came to change completely the way we used to see machinery reliability.
What is Condition Monitoring? What do we need to learn about modern technologies applied in it? Well, I am a Vibration Analysis technology developer and I invite you to take some time to read this few tips I have written for you.
