Monitoring and Alarming

What makes successful monitoring and alarming strategies?

We can help you ensure the highest availability and performance of your plant, by accurately monitoring the performance of the equipment and identifying exceptions automatically. In some more advanced cases, model-based monitoring solutions can detect anomalies early to trigger corrective action or maintenance avoiding unplanned shutdowns.

For alarming systems to be effective, it is imperative that operators are only exposed to relevant alarms and do not get flooded with redundant or false alarms. This significantly reduces the risk of unplanned shutdowns resulting from operational upsets.  In more advanced cases, alarming systems may even suggest potential actions and assign them to the correct stakeholders.
