Machine condition monitoring for power generation
Power plants are expected to operate 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Downtime and equipment derating (when a generator fails to deliver power at its rated capacity) can cost a power plant thousands of dollars per hour. The cost of replacing failed equipment is also extremely high. Vibration analysis by itself is not enough to anticipate catastrophic failures. Oil analysis is often able to detect problems at a much earlier stage than vibration analysis. This is why more and more power plants are bringing oil ...

Automatic fire detection and suppression solutions for wind turbine industry
Ensure your power generation equipment is protected from the dangers of flammable oils, hydraulic fluids, and short-circuits. Unlike buildings or industrial equipment, wind turbines can be very difficult to protect with traditional fire safety systems. Because wind turbines operate remotely, fires can go undetected. That means a fire extinguisher is not a viable option. Sprinkler systems don't make sense either, because they require a water source. Wind turbine fire suppression systems from Firetrace provide a ...

Innovative partial discharge monitoring solutions for renewables/marine industry
Offshore turbines and large marine vessels typically use cast resin type transformers and the sensitivity and noise immunity properties of UHF are advantages in these applications. Cost and time to repair or replace for faults and failures is more difficult to mitigate in these situations. Intelligence on the changing levels of partial discharge and their significance to asset integrity will lead to more meaningful understanding of the actions needed or not as the case may ...
