Condition Monitoring Solution for Bulb Hydro Turbine

Condition Monitoring Solution for Bulb Hydro Turbine

Use of vibration and process control parameter monitoring and machinery protection systems on horizontal hydro turbines has long been regarded as a valuable tool in the prevention of component and machinery failure. Several international standards & documents have been developed exclusively for hydro machinery to define allowable values & measurement points like ISO 10816-5, ISO 7919-5 & ISO 20816-5. In addition to this, there are plenty of guidelines and documents for utilizing new technologies like Air gap, End winding and partial discharge like CEATI International.

V6000 can be customized as a condition monitoring & protection system for hydro turbines and generators covering all the needs even for the mentioned newly developed technologies. Complete set of useful monitoring parameters and display functions have been added to increase the efficiency of the maintenance policies and regimes to ensure the continued good health of the power generating assets and to detect underlying problems early.
