This paper describes a state-of-the-art distributed motor monitoring system (DMMS), a computer based system communicating with individual equipment monitoring units (EMUs) distributed in the field and connected in a network. The EMUs are connected in a daisy chain with a proprietary communication protocol. DMMS is an on-line system developed in the Windows environment. The principal functions of DMMS are parameter and fault logging parameter trending, historical fault database generation, plant/process mimics with on-line display of machine status, implementation of advanced fault detection techniques with suggested remedial action and report generation. In applications, which require monitoring of multiple motors from a centralized location, DMMS offers a technically viable and economically attractive solution. |
