Design of Portable Fault Diagnosis System for Reciprocating Machinery

Abstract

This paper discusses disadvantages of existing diagnosis fault system for reciprocating machinery, and based on structural characteristics and operating principle of the reciprocating machinery, it also presents that a portable fault diagnosis system of reciprocating machinery shall be composed of three parts: sensor, data acquisition device and hand-held terminal, in which the data recorder is mainly prSovided for signal conditioning, A/D for data conversion and transmission, and hand-held terminal for data receiving and processing, fault diagnosis, display and storage. The experiment and tests show that this portable fault diagnosis system is feasible for field online monitoring of status and fault diagnosis for reciprocating machinery.
