Operating Manual Functional overview

MHM-97924-PBF June 2022

3 Functional overview

The AMS Asset Monitor is a field mountable device to collect data from driven and none driven assets (see Table 3-1) by using different kinds of sensor such as piezoelectric vibration sensors to analyze the machine health and to provide alarms depending on the machine state. The hardware is designed to carry up to 12 CHARMs1 – AM 5125 VI Piezo CHARMs, VI Tach CHARMs, VI Voltage CHARMs, and compatible DeltaV™ CHARMs – to connect input and output signals. See AMS Asset Monitor Installation Guide for further details on the hardware.

The AMS Asset Monitor can be used as a standalone prediction device with basic protection functions or integrated into a network and connected to subsequent systems such as Emerson's AMS Machine Works or AMS Plantweb Optics.

The installation of additional software on your PC or Laptop is not necessary. Use your web browser to configure and control the AMS Asset Monitor.

The input signals measured by sensors mounted on the equipment to be monitored are connected through sensor specific CHARMs to the signal processing parts of the AMS Asset Monitor. The preprocessed sensor signals are forwarded to the prediction unit for analysis based on predefined rules with configurable parameters. The prediction results are output based on selectable logics through output CHARMs or forwarded to subsequent systems through the Ethernet interface. The input sensor signals are also forwarded to the unit for basic protection. The typical reaction time of the basic protection is < 1 second. Detected alarms are output through output CHARMs.

The AMS Asset Monitor has a data collection function to send specific waveform data to AMS Machine Works.

The AMS Asset Monitor has several functions such as FFT, Energy in Bands, or PeakVue Plus™ for analyzing the collected machine data. Predefined rules with configurable parameters are used to evaluate the machine's health based on the used prediction functions. The rules identify the running speed amplitude using data from a tachometer, a DeltaV DI CHARM, from an AI CHARM, from the VI Tach CHARM, from an external data point, or from a manual input.

The following spectrum-based analytics are implemented into the AMS Asset Monitor:

Alignment

Figure 3-2: Spectrum

Bearing

Figure 3-3: Fault frequencies bearing

The alignment rule looks at the running speed and two times running speed amplitude relationship. From this relationship the alignment rule determines if there is a likely alignment issue. The rule can be executed at bearing and shaft vibration measurements.

The bearing rule uses the PeakVue Plus™ algorithm to recognize repetitive and non-synchronous events in the frequency spectrum to detect mechanical bearing defects. With known individual mechanical bearing parameters or fault frequencies (FTF, BSF, BPFO, BPFI) fundamental bearing defects can be detected.

A. FTF (Fundamental train frequency)

B. BSF (Ball spin frequency) C. BPFO (Ball pass frequency outer) D. BPFI (Ball pass frequency inner)

Balance

MHM-97924-PBF, Rev. 3.2 17

The balance rule looks at the asset running speed amplitude to perform its analysis (see Figure 3-2). The rule determines if the one times running speed amplitude is higher than the selected acceptable balance level.

Blade pass

Typically, the blade pass rule is a blade or vane pass assessment. The blade pass rule looks at the one times and two times pass frequency amplitude for excessive pulsation levels. High amplitudes indicate flow restrictions, impeller clearance problems, and possible resonance problems. There are no general industry standards for the allowable pass amplitude, so the alert limits for this will rely on the vendor of the equipment or customer determined allowable levels.

Figure 3-4: Velocity spectrum – blade pass

A. Amplitude 1

B. Blade pass 1 C. Amplitude 2 D. Blade pass 2

Flow turbulence – pump

Fluid turbulence analysis. The flow rule looks for cavitation, aeration, or recirculation in pumps.

Flow turbulence – fan

Gas turbulence analysis. The flow rule looks for rotating stall or surge in fans.

Figure 3-5: Velocity spectrum – flow

Uneven air gap

Inductive motor analysis. The uneven air gap rule uses the second harmonic amplitude of the line frequency to determine if an inductive motor has an air gap problem caused by a soft foot, an eccentric or deformed stator, or an eccentric rotor.

Gear misalignment

The gear misalignment rule looks at the one times, two times, and three times gear mesh frequencies amplitude to determine if there is a gear alignment issue.

MHM-97924-PBF June 2022

Tooth wear

The tooth wear rule looks at the energy of the sidebands of the one times, two times, and three times gear mesh frequencies to determine if there is an issue with a wear down tooth.

Cracked or broken tooth

This evaluation is under development. The cracked or broken tooth rule uses the PeakVue Plus™ algorithm to detect possible mechanical gearbox faults.

Figure 3-6: Velocity spectrum – example for gear mesh frequency with sidebands

A. Gear mesh amplitude

B. Gear mesh frequency

Looseness

The looseness rule looks at the ratio of tree times to one times running speed amplitude to determine if looseness is present (see Figure 3-2). The four times running speed amplitude is automatically used for the determination if a fan with three blades is supervised.

Lubrication

The lubrication rule uses the PeakVue Plus™ algorithm to determine if there is an under or over lubrication issues with an antifriction bearing.

Oil whirl

The oil whirl rule looks for bearing instability issues at sleeve bearings caused by oil whirls. The 0.3X to 0.55X amplitudes are supervised to detect oil whirl problems.

Figure 3-7: Spectrum – oil whirl

Fouling

The fouling rule detects a decreased heat transfer coefficient because of deposits in the heat exchanger by checking process values such as flow and temperature.

Duty

The duty rule checks the heat duty on the cold and hot side of the heat exchanger to survey the quality of the flow and temperature measurements used for the fouling detection. The fouling detection can be imprecise if the heat duty on the cold and hot side is uneven.

3.4 Health calculation

The AMS Asset Monitor calculates the health of each configured asset and displays it as a numerical rating. Different rules such as Alignment, Balance, or Looseness (see

Implemented rules) and configured measurement alerts (see Measurement alerts) are

used for the calculation. The rule or measurement alert with the worst result is used for the health score evaluation of the asset.

Note

Measurement locations with status Critical are not available for the rule calculation. A rule cannot be calculated if fewer than the required minimum number of measurement locations are available for the rule. See Assets for required measuring locations.

The health score is between 0-100, where 0 is completely unhealthy, and 100 is completely healthy.

The AMS Asset Monitor also uses the health score to derive an overall assets status. The health calculation of the asset with the worst result is used for the indication.

Figure 3-14 explains the health score and the different health levels Healthy, Advise,

Warning and Critical.

3.6 Basic protection

The AMS Asset Monitor is equipped with basic functions for machine protection. The following signal evaluations for dynamic signals are available:

0-to-Peak

Peak-to-Peak

RMS

Equivalent peak (√2 * Velocity RMS)

The measured value is proportional to the vibration of the supervised asset in 0-to-peak evaluation.

The measured value is proportional to the vibration of the supervised asset in peak-to-peak evaluation.

The measured value is proportional to the vibration of the supervised asset in RMS3 evaluation.

The measured RMS value of the supervised asset is multiplied by √2 to get the Equivalent peak value for the output. This evaluation is available for VI Piezo CHARMs.

(continued)

PeakVue

All values measure by CHARMs or imported as an external data point can be supervised on limit violations. Configure alarm limits in the Measurement alerts dialog of the asset where the CHARM or external data point is used that provides the value to be supervised.

PeakVue detects impact-like events such as bearing defects. The detected amplitudes can be supervised by user defined alarm limits. This evaluation is available for VI Piezo CHARMs.

3.7 Predicates and data collections

Predicates

The AMS Asset Monitor is equipped with a logic editor to define predicates to control the execution of data collections and asset health calculations (see Health calculation) based on input signals such as measuring values or logic states. Sources for a predicate:

• Input CHARMs

• External data points

• Assets (speed value)

• Other predicates (predicate-in-predicate)

Up to 20 predicates with up to 10 different conditions can be defined.

Data collections

The AMS Asset Monitor has a data collection function to send specific waveform data through the AMS Machine Works interface to AMS Machine Works. The data collection is controlled by user defined time intervals and predicates. Currently, one data collection is supported by AMS Asset Monitor and AMS Machine Works. The data collection contains up to 24 waveforms. A set of five preconfigured data collection setups with maximum signal frequency (Fmax) and lines of resolution (LOR), three for vibration signals and two for PeakView, are available for the configuration of each waveform. One vibration and one PeakVue4 waveform can be collected for each CHARM. The waveform data is sent along with average speed data. The average speed is calculated over the length of time of the collected waveform. CHARM waveforms are not collected if the CHARM is disabled, has an error, or the configuration is deleted. This function requires AMS Machine Works 1.7 or higher.

The change of the domain name requires an update of the SSL certificate and can also affect OPC UA, Modbus TCP, and Data Collector connections.

4.5.4 Date and time

The internal time of the AMS Asset Monitor can manually be set or it can be synchronized with the time provided by a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server to keep the AMS Asset Monitor system's time current. This function requires a permanent connection to a NTP server.

CAUTION

The proper system time setting is crucial for the operation of the AMS Asset Monitor. Verify the system time and make any necessary time adjustments before continuing with the AMS Asset Monitor configuration.

A significant time adjustment of the AMS Asset Monitor causes the following issues:

• The current user is logged out after the system time is set more than 30 minutes

forward compared to the current system setting. Log in again.

• The AMS Asset Monitor reboots automatically after the system time is set more than

15 minutes (or more than 30 seconds, if time is manually set) backward compared to the current system setting. Health trends and alert lists do not work correctly for some time, waiting changed system time to catch up with the latest collected data timestamps. Depending on the time deviation there are two options to solve the issue – wait or reset:

— Less than a few hours: Wait until the changed system time catches up with the

latest collected data timestamps. See next option for how to solve the time deviation immediately.

— More than a day: Reset the AMS Asset Monitor to factory default (see Reset to

factory default) and restore the configuration by using a backup file (see Restore) or

create a new configuration.

Emerson recommends to use the time server synchronization to always ensure a correct AMS Asset Monitor system time setting.

Sensor type

Voltage limits

Note

If no sensor is connected to the VI Tach CHARM or there is a sensor cable break, the status overview indicates an open-circuit voltage in the range of +12 V to +17 V. The open-circuit voltage is caused by the sensing current of approximately 240 μA, required for the open sensor circuit detection of Hall-effect and passive magnetic sensors. This behavior is independently of the configured sensor type.

• Select Hall effect if a Hall-effect sensor is connected. The maximum

permissible input voltage range is 0 to + 24 V.

• Select Passive magnetic pickup if a variable reluctance sensor (magnetic

pickup) is connected. The maximum permissible input voltage range is 85 V peak-to-peak (30.3 V AC).

this mode is a possibly more unstable indication of the speed value. This is caused by varying measuring results during a rotation because of shaft vibrations and mechanical deviations of tooth gaps and sizes.

• Standard + stabilization (max. speed < 720; increased update

time)

This mode is like Standard but uses higher refresh times at maximum machine speeds (Maximum speed) below 720 rpm to increase stability of the speed value.

Cold junction temperature source

Select a source for the cold junction compensation. A thermocouple temperature sensor consists of two different materials

welded together. The weld point is called Hot junction (tip of the thermocouple). A second point where two different materials are connected together is the terminal block – connection of the thermocouple wires to copper of the clamps. This point is called Cold junction. A voltage – a thermoelectric voltage – is generated if there is a temperature difference between the hot junction point and the colt junction point. To measure the temperature at the hot junction (tip of the thermocouple) the colt junction temperature must be known. This procedure is called Cold junction compensation. The AMS Asset Monitor provides two options for the cold junction compensation:

• Local Compensation, measurement of the cold junction

temperature with the RTD temperature sensor integrated into the Thermocouple/mV Terminal Block.

• CHMx-yy (x: number of the address plug, yy: slot number),

measurement of the cold junction temperature with a RTD CHARM. The temperature sensor connected to this CHARM must be installed close to the cold junction of the TC measurement. All installed RTD CHARMs are listed.

24 V DO CHARM

Functionality

Select the function of the CHARM.

• Discrete Output

The CHARM drives the output to a discrete value written by the AMS Asset Monitor and holds the output at that value. The output immediately reflects the output value that was received. Upon receiving a configuration that indicates a change from one type of output to another, the output switches to the off state.

MHM-97924-PBF, Rev. 3.2 69

Configure the AMS Asset Monitor Operating Manual

June 2022 MHM-97924-PBF

• Momentary Output

The CHARM produces a momentary pulse by driving the output active for a specific time period each time the AMS Asset Monitor writes a value of TRUE (1, ON). Upon receiving a new pulse value, the existing pulse is allowed to terminate normally before the new value is written. Upon receiving a configuration that indicates a change from one type of output to another, the output switches to the off state.

• Continuous Pulse Output

The CHARM produces a continuous pulse by driving the channel output value ON for a percentage of the specified time period. Upon receiving a new on-time value (which is a percent of the pulse period), the output of the channel stays on for that amount of time and goes to the OFF state for the remainder of the pulse period. At that time the channel receives a new on-time value from the module.

• Average

The CHARM samples input 1000 times per second. When Average is selected the counter is incremented or decremented once per sample. When the input is True, the counter is incremented. When the input is False, the counter is decremented. If the counter decrements to zero, the output is set to False and the counter ignores further decrements. If the counter increments up to the threshold, the output is set to True and the counter ignores further increments. If the counter is between zero and the threshold, the output retains its previous state. The threshold determines the amount of filtering: a threshold of one performs no filtering and a threshold of N requires a signal to be present for N accumulated samples before the output changes state (see Value).

June 2022 MHM-97924-PBF

Note

The more measuring points are equipped, the more accurate is the health calculation of the asset.

General recommendations:

• Use a point distribution that allows some horizontal, vertical, and axial inputs to get a

good overview of both the equipment's health and the equipment's general movement.

• A radial measurement is recommended to evaluate balance and alignment.

• Generally measure radial vibration in horizontal direction because of the gravity load of

the measurement in vertical direction.

• For a good PeakVue and PeakVue Plus reading, place the sensor near the bearing load

zone.

• Select measuring points in accordance to your measuring task.

Some assets such as the Heat exchanger – shell & tube, counter-current and the Hydrocarbon pump – centrifugal, overhung require input signals other than of vibration sensors such as pressure, flow, and temperature sensors. See Table 6-6 for sensor types and CHARMs or external data points required for the measurements.
