The CSI 9420 wireless vibration transmitter by Emerson Process Management features new enhancements that are helping increase efficiency and
power module life.
Delivered via the release of AMS Suite: Machinery Health Manager version
5.61, Emerson’s asset management software, the enhancements include new
spectral resolution options for the CSI 9420 wireless vibration transmitter that
reduce bandwidth requirements and improve power module life. Data log and
configuration capabilities have been added to streamline user interaction with
multiple transmitters on a single gateway.
The ‘spectrum on alert’ feature in the AMS Machinery Health Manager offers
a more efficient means of acquiring diagnostic information, with analytical
data acquired only when there is a condition alert on the machine. Users can also
adjust the amount of resolution captured, further reducing the bandwidth used
and power required to operate the transmitter. A new data log capability
delivers the operational history of each transmitter, allowing users to
identify performance issues in the field from AMS Suite.
Nathan Pettus, vice president of Emerson’s Reliability Solutions
business explains that performance and efficiency contribute to greater asset
reliability. By making their own technology perform better and more
efficiently, Emerson is able to pass on the benefits to the user and improve
asset reliability in their plant.
Emerson’s AMS Suite: Machinery Health Manager integrates data
from route-based, online, and wireless vibration solutions as well as
third-party oil and infrared analysis data to provide a complete picture of
machinery health.
