Machine Protection System – API670

Real-Time Data Capture and Analysis
It captures, analyzes, presents, and stores the real-time data from the Alta Solutions hardware platforms.

Digital recording and playback
Our Software has the ability to record data to a hard drive based on events or defined intervals. It maintains a large data buffer, which allows storage of pre-triggered data before an event. This data can be played back and analyzed off-site. The AS-410 can change the analysis parameters (spectral lines, overlap, etc.) during playback; thereby, avoiding potential travel to re-record the data.

Alarming Criteria
The software has the powerful capability to act as a monitoring system, and has over 50 analysis criteria built-in. This feature allows the users to extract the different machinery features from the dynamic data. These criteria can be used to trigger data capture and alert the operator.

Correlate With External Process Data
For machinery diagnostics, it is important to understand the operating conditions of the machine under test. The software allows external process data (pressures, temperatures, flows, load, etc.) to be correlated with real-time dynamic data.

Intuitive User Interface
It has a very intuitive user interface in which a user can quickly open plots, change channels, and modify settings by simply dragging and dropping the different screen elements. The software also allows vibration analysts to quickly navigate and visualize collected data.

Rich Set Of Displays
Our Software has a rich set of available graphical representations of collected data, including time, spectrum, orbits, waterfall (cascade, profile, order), transient/vector (Bode, Nyquist, shaft centerline), transfer functions (magnitude, phase, coherence), trends, scatter, and HMI screen elements (alarm logs, bars, field values, tables, mimics, script buttons).

Data reporting features
The software has many features to allow the user to quickly annotate and document their analysis. Locking cursors allow the user to correlate and analyze data across multiple pages. Each graphical plot or table can be quickly copied into a word processor or spreadsheet for final report presentation.
