It is vital that critical assets are monitored permanently and remotely. Information on the status of a pump, for example, originates from a multitude of different systems. Often, these disparate information systems are not coordinated with each other and thus all provide alerts individually. This can lead to an overflow of information and inefficient work processes. Too many false reports can quickly result in alarm fatigue and important notices are no longer followed up on or they are followed up on too late.
The intelligent asset monitoring in BCAP (Bilfinger Connected Asset Performance) combines the data from the various systems and ensures that only the really important information is passed on. In conjunction with Bilfinger Maintenance Services, initial instructions on how to rectify the problem can also be sent to the CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System).
The combination of technology and Bilfinger services reduces the efforts of your employees over the long term. With our global network of maintenance planning, asset management consulting, reliability engineering and industrial data scientists, we work together with you in agile work processes to develop a digital asset monitoring strategy. This allows you to concentrate on your core business.
The quality of the lubricating oil is a crucial parameter for the longevity of a compressor, for example, and is usually assessed by manually measuring the concentration of antioxidants in the oil every 3 months. This means it is possible that a sharp drop in the concentration, for example when the oil temperature increases, could be measured too late and damage may already have been done. Using the Virtual Sensor, the quality of the lubricating oil can be dynamically calculated from additional data with the help of machine learning. The remaining service life of the oil can thus be predicted at an early stage and oil deposits can be prevented in good time by taking preventive measures.
A cooling water valve ensures the correct oil temperature. If the oil temperature increases excessively, it can lead to machine downtime. The cooling water valve should be 30-70% open for optimal temperature control. Generally, however, half of the flow is at 80-100% open. You can receive simple alerts via e-mail when values exceed required limits. This way, the operations team is alerted if the compressor load should be increased or decreased. Maintenance can also be automatically notified of a need for cleaning, for example.
With BCAP's integrated tools, reliability engineers can run analyses on their own and uncover correlations quickly and easily. With the help of TrendMiner, a user-friendly self-service tool, the most probable cause of ad hoc process disruptions can be uncovered directly and communicated to the maintenance employee.
