Multi-Sensor Phase Analysis

Ori Negri, Senior Researcher, Augury

Description

The use of phase analysis in vibration monitoring has long since been adopted as a tool for fault detection in mechanical machinery. This method, however, was limited to a single-type of sensor, mainly vibration. In this talk we present a novel continuous monitoring system that synchronously samples tri-axes vibration and magnetic sensors, at high speed, to enable cross-sensors phase analysis. We will show the advantages and capabilities of using cross-sensor’s correlation, phase analysis, and orbit plot, for fault detection and prognostics of electro-mechanical machines.
