Intranet/Internet Remote Monitoring Software & Systems
Acoustic emission has been proven to be a highly effective method for on-line plant asset management for critical status monitoring of materials, structures and processes. Increasing demands for on-line plant asset management mandates the use of Intranet (LAN) or Internet condition monitoring.
Physical Acoustics Corporation has pioneered the acoustic emission remote monitoring market with the early introduction of the “Distress Warning AE System” in 1989-90. The system was based on a complete telephone modem automatic dialler.
PAC continuously develops new on-line software technologies for implementing acoustic emission, vibration and other sensor-based instrumentation for remote customer applications. Based on customer needs and available connection capabilities, our software engineers worldwide have developed the following:
- Web Browser – Internet based remote monitoring
- Wireless LAN – Intranet & Network based remote monitoring
- Modem and direct phone line – Direct to modem remote monitoring
- Web Demo – UPDATED!: Visit our React Remote Monitoring site for a live demonstration
Our Internet Data Acquisition, Monitoring, Analysis and Alarm services include the following:
↘ We can install a remote AE system, connect it to the internet and automatically and continuously download summary and statistical data, alarm status information and parametric (other sensors) data. We also monitor for alarm conditions, alerting and contacting the appropriate persons in case of an alarm or emergency.
↘ We provide an internet web site where the user (customer) can log into his/her private area for reviewing the system status and alarm information, any time, 24 hours a day.
↘ We provide a service to retrieve the raw AE data from the system, analyse the data on a regular (pre‐arranged and contracted) basis (daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, etc.) and provide an analysis report that is deposited on the web site for review and downloading by the customer.
↘ We provide daily monitoring engineering services as required or requested by the customer to determine severity of a problem.
Remote Control Engineering Services
Remote control engineering services are also providedto make sure that the system is being fully maintained and that all system settings are kept appropriately. Via the internet, system parameters or setups can be modified as required or requested to be sure that the system remains as sensitive as possible towards the detection of important activity. This service cuts down on the need to constantly travel to site, ultimately saving significant time and money.
Service Contracts for Instrumentation andInstallation
In addition with the remote control services, we can offer remote maintenanceand diagnostics for the customer. We can troubleshoot the system remotely, and schedule repairs in a more cost effective manner for the customer. We can upgrade software remotely and install new software options as requested by the customer.
