Managing and synchronizing separate systems across differing vendors can be complex and time-consuming. Although multiple systems are necessary for keeping your power generating assets operating at peak efficiency, the planning, expertise and time-commitment for integrating and operating two or more systems is often overwhelming for operations and maintenance personnel.

The new Ovation Machinery Health Monitor is a revolutionary and robust solution for simplifying asset prediction, protection and process control. With both machinery health and protection functions now consolidated within an Ovation distributed control system, users experience a host of benefits including simplified system upgrades, improved maintenance and lifecycle processes, and secure connectivity.

The Ovation Machinery Health Monitor provides API 670 protection on a power generator’s most critical equipment including steam turbine generators, gas turbines, and boiler feedpumps.

• Improves asset performance by delivering distributed control, machinery protection and predictive machinery health monitoring on a single common platform
• Improves reliability by reducing integration risks
• Enhances security by removing links to external systems and isolating process information from attacks
• Simplifies configuration and upgrades by eliminating synchronization across multiple systems
• Reduces lifecycle costs by minimizing training, maintenance and inventory
• Intensifies operational awareness of potential issues by providing alerts from one set of common plant HMIs
• Increases safety by eliminating manual checks of machinery functions through a separate turbine vibration protection system
