Improve Compressor Reliability with Real-Time Signal Diagnostics
Learn how CCC’s Prodigy® Antisurge Controller ensures reliable signal inputs and supports stable, high-performance compressor operations
Modern turbomachinery control requires continuous reliability and proactive fault detection. CCC’s Prodigy® Antisurge Controller enhances machine monitoring by using Drift and Freeze Detector functions to identify transmitter anomalies before they impact operations.
By analyzing process stability and transmitter behavior in real time, the Drift Detector flags inaccurate signals, helping operators prevent poor control decisions based on faulty data. Simultaneously, the Freeze Detector monitors analog inputs for inactivity, alerting teams when a signal appears to be frozen or unresponsive. Together, these features provide an extra layer of protection for critical turbomachinery assets, resulting in fewer failures, reduced downtime, and improved decision-making.
With clear technical explanations, configuration examples, and real-world case studies, this article provides a valuable resource for engineers and plant operators seeking to enhance reliability and safety through more informed diagnostics.
