Analog Devices Inc. CN0549 Condition Based Monitoring Dev Platform
Analog Devices Inc. CN0549 Condition Based Monitoring Development Platform (CbM) employs vibration sensing growing in importance for industrial applications. Companies seek to optimize machinery lifetime and performance and reduce the cost of ownership, while some are looking to develop new business models around the provision of such information. To provide an accurate representation of machinery that needs monitoring, large datasets must be collected to determine a baseline operating point for the equipment in normal operational modes and failure conditions. Once this data is collected, an algorithm or threshold detection routine can be created to provide the correct analysis for this equipment.
CbM requires capturing full bandwidth data to ensure that all harmonics, aliasing, and other mechanical interactions in both the time and frequency domain are accounted for. This data collection requires a high-performance sensor, and data acquisition (DAQ) system that can provide high fidelity, real-time data into a data analysis tool or application.
Using established tools like MATLAB® or newer Python-based tools like Tensorflow, analyzing the data, profiling the machinery, and creating algorithms for smart decision making is greatly simplified.
Vibration sensing has traditionally dominated most CbM applications because of sensors' availability, and the science behind the analysis is better understood. The integrated electronic piezoelectric (IEPE) standard is a popular signaling interface standard for high-end microelectronic mechanical systems (MEMS) and piezo sensors prevalent in the industry today.
