Chicago, IL

This one-day course will cover the application and value of new and/or unique technologies for increasing Reliability in facilities across all industries. Specifically, the course will cover 3 areas:

a. Implementing vibration monitoring in a situational context by integrating protection, prediction and performance monitoring with the process automation system. Increased vibration with increased speed or load may be normal, but how much increase is acceptable? Integration sheds light on subjects such as how much can I push my process before damaging the machine? If I have a process upset, what parameters can I change without impacting machine health? If a have a machine malfunctions, what process changes can I make to lessen the affects of the malfunction? In this section we will review:
• Measureable value delivered through the integration of these technologies
• Examples of reduced reliability through the stand-alone application of these technologies
• Opportunities to implement this integration in the most cost-effective manner

b. Introducing wireless technology to your predictive maintenance program. Wireless technology is one of the hottest topics in predictive and reliability based maintenance today. But before any facilities jumps into a wireless investment, there are several issues that need to be understood:
• Cost and performance benefits – wireless technology can be a low-cost alternative to traditional monitoring methods, and in more dangerous environments may be the only option. But what’s the best approach to getting started?
• Field network options – wireless technology is only as good as the network on which it operates. A self-organizing mesh network is a critical component to insuring the reliability of the program.
• Security considerations – whether the introduction of wireless technology is an expansion of an existing network or a new application, IT concerns for security and stability will need to be address.

c. Learn PeakVue™ best practices for the earliest and most accurate detection of developing faults in roller bearings and gearboxes. Commonly practiced demodulation techniques can actually mask developing problems by altering the original peak data. In this section we will discuss:
• Emerson’s alternative to demodulation, the patented PeakVue method for processing peak amplitudes
• Specific case history examples of PeakVue success where demodulation failed to identify a developing problem.
• How PeakVue is applied in both route-based and online monitoring programs.

d. End User Case History supporting successful implementation of these technologies. We have been very successful in the past getting customers within reasonable driving range of a given location to present their own real-world case history. If this seminar is selected, we will pursue appropriate case histories.

Audience
Recommended attendance for this seminar includes:
• Maintenance Managers and/or Maintenance Engineering, or anyone responsible for the planning and execution of a predictive or reliability based maintenance program
• Operations personnel who are looking for closer integration to the maintenance program
• Plant Managers who are interested in achieving greater Reliability to effect the bottom-line.

Presented by:
Deane Horn, Product Line Manager for Online Monitors. Deane has been with Emerson for 13 years and has a B.S.E.E. Deane serves on the API 670 subcommittee and has numerous published papers on online machinery monitoring including Turbomachinery and Control magazines, and he presents annually on the topic at Emerson’s Global User’s Exchange. Deane is well versed in the integration of technologies with process automation, and can elaboration on the various applications of PeakVue technology.

Dan Nower, Global Manager Online Systems. Dan has held a variety of positions in his 20 years with Emerson, but is currently responsible for a team of online and wireless monitoring experts. Dan holds a B.S.M.E. and is frequently called on for customer presentations around the world.
