Emerson AMS Suite: Machinery Health Manager version 5.61 for CSI 6500 protection system

Click2Contact

Emerson Process Management has expanded the capabilities of its CSI 6500 protection system, which communicates additional prediction data to allow users to make real-time decisions on operating their critical assets. Version 5.61 of AMS Suite: Machinery Health Manager will enable the product to include basic prediction capabilities with only minimal time and wiring investments.

Using a simple ethernet connection from the protection system, users receive periodic parameter trends and spectrum/waveform data delivered on specific intervals. This data is particularly useful for determining the health of sleeve bearings on turbo machinery. This automated process for acquiring prediction data eliminates the need to connect to buffered outputs on the protection system and reduces the risk of inadvertently causing a machine trip.

Waveform data from the protection system is now incorporated onto the circular polar plots available in AMS Machinery Manager v5.61, facilitating diagnosis of developing valve faults in reciprocating compressors. The software integrates data from route-based, online and wireless vibration solutions as well as third-party oil and infrared analysis data to provide a complete picture of machinery health.
