experienced engineers on site . These systems , wired or not , can be used for cost-effective , short-term multichannel data collection for root cause analysis as well as long-term process optimization for improved reliability and sustainability .
On-site support can be delivered quickly and effectively via the metaverse
and implement changes to prevent a reoccurrence is a step-change in modern maintenance support . Data is crucial in understanding the operating conditions of a machine and the increased analysis capabilities of modern algorithms can support predictive maintenance programs .
Instant data analysis
Digitalization and Industry 4.0 have paved the way for massive improvements in diagnostics and communications . The ability to access large amounts of data and quickly analyze it also offers benefits for planned maintenance . For example , taking reciprocating compressors used on LNG transport vessels , there is a requirement for these ships to undergo dry-dock inspections every five years . Data analysis can be used to predict the expected service life of the equipment and highlight any components that may need attention in between planned overhauls .

data to a secure monitoring site that analyses the information roundthe-clock for possible anomalies , PROGNOST is equally adept .
Now , wireless sensors are rapidly evolving , which means that a comprehensive data capture system can be installed without the need for
Proven security However , one of the major concerns of corporations , large and small , is the possibility of their data being compromised on the internet . Data security is the top priority of all providers of digital services and Burckhardt Compression holds the ISA / IEC 62443-4-1 certification for cyber security , which ensures the company ’ s solutions provide robust protection against recognized cyber threats .
The increased use of technology in everyday maintenance is becoming more accepted , but that is no reason to become complacent . Data security is extremely important and equipment operators should always seek assurances and evidence that the proper security protocols are in place .
The continued development of the metaverse and the tools capable of exploiting its benefits will enable expert engineers and local technicians to be in the same virtual space , looking at the same machinery and data simultaneously . Offering step-by-step guidance with immediate feedback , this technology has the potential to significantly improve machine reliability , efficiency and sustainability .
As part of the Burckhardt Compression family , PROGNOST is a world leader in industrial equipment monitoring and these advances in communications technology have enabled its portfolio of solutions to be expanded . From a simple setup of a few temperature and vibration sensors connected to a PLC , to a complete sensor array providing
