US Chemical Company Case Study – Continuous Monitoring System for Reciprocating Compressors
Our experts discuss the advantages and lessons learned in implementing a continuous monitoring system for reciprocating compressors.

Implementing new and reliable technology to detect potential machine faults early and plan preventive maintenanceTime or cycle-based actions performed to prevent system functional failure. This proactive maintenance type generally includes scheduled restoration and scheduled discard tasks. Learn more: What is Preventive Maintenance? effectively is the backbone of a modern predictive maintenanceThe use of instruments and analysis to determine equipment condition in order to predict failure before it takes place so corrective maintenance can be done in a planned and scheduled fashion. Examples include vibration analysis, oil analysis, thermography, airborne ultrasonic’s, NDT, motor current signature analysis, trending of process parameters, etc. program. Maximize productivity and ensure safer operations for those critical assets your operation depends on.
In this webinar, see how a US chemical plant implemented the Bruel & Kjaer Vibro continuous monitoring solution on two very critical reciprocating compressors to enable 24/7 monitoring and safety shutdown protection. We will discuss the advantages of the solution along with some of the considerations and lessons learned in the development of this project.
