Emerson Process Management Ovation Machinery Health Monitor

Click2Contact

The Ovation Machinery Health Monitor from Emerson Process Management is designed for power generation and water/wastewater industries offering machinery health monitoring to enhance reliability and operator awareness of potential issues with critical plant equipment.

The product leverages the power of the Ovation distributed control system through a high-performance I/O module dedicated to machinery health functions. Users complete installation by inserting the module into a spare I/O slot. Operators can receive alerts from a single set of common plant HMIs without the need to manually check machinery functions through a separate system, enhancing their awareness of potential plant or safety issues.

By also eliminating synchronisation across multiple systems and using familiar Ovation tools, configuration and upgrades are less complex. The product also reduces the risk of cyber attack by eliminating links to standalone systems and isolating process information, which can help facilities meet NERC CIP and other security regulations.

The product also incorporates Emerson’s PeakVue technology to predict early failures of rolling element bearings and delivers standard API 670 machinery protection for critical plant assets, including turbines, pumps, motors, compressors and centrifuges. The module is designed to be scalable and can be implemented online in phases so that protection and prediction strategies can be added as needs evolve.
