Pulp & Paper Series Part 1: Monitoring Auxiliary machines
This Part 1 of our Pulp & Paper Series focuses on the myriad number of machines used in producing pulp and paper that are considered as balance-of-plant
Pulp & Paper Series Part 1: Monitoring Auxiliary machines is an application documented by Brüel & Kjær Vibro. This page summarizes the engineering task and the system-selection considerations for an Elina implementation.
Application challenge
This Part 1 of our Pulp & Paper Series focuses on the myriad number of machines used in producing pulp and paper that are considered as balance-of-plant
Measurement or test approach
The monitoring chain combines suitable vibration sensors, signal acquisition and condition-monitoring or protection functions for the target machine.
Information required for system selection
Define machine type and speed, bearing arrangement, fault frequencies, measurement bandwidth, protection requirements, channel count and communication architecture.
The problem
This Part 1 of our Pulp & Paper Series focuses on the myriad number of machines used in producing pulp and paper that are considered as balance-of-plant
The method
The monitoring chain combines suitable vibration sensors, signal acquisition and condition-monitoring or protection functions for the target machine.
The result
The delivered configuration must be verified against the operating envelope and performance required by the application.
