Auxiliary Service Motor Monitoring

Sponsor: Allan Almeida de Lima
Leader: Christhian Henrique Gomes Fonseca

How can we implement a solution to continuously monitor the status of auxiliary service motors in facilities, allowing for the early detection of faults?

Description: We are seeking a solution for monitoring the condition of auxiliary service motors, focusing on the early detection of faults and increasing the lifespan of the equipment. This pilot project will utilize the new network infrastructure to transmit real-time data from vibration and temperature sensors installed on the motors to a visualization interface.

The objective of this challenge is to identify market solutions that allow for the advanced use of technologies for monitoring and inspection, promoting greater efficiency and control in maintenance and operation processes.

The proposal is to conduct a pilot project at the Tucuruí Hydroelectric Power Plant that utilizes the existing IT network infrastructure and can be implemented within a maximum of two weeks, remaining operational for three months. Connection to this network can be made via WiFi 6 and Bluetooth, or as a last resort via Ethernet cable.

Mandatory requirements for the solution:

• Connectivity with AXIA Energy legacy systems.

• Compliance with the LGPD (Brazilian General Data Protection Law) and cybersecurity.

• End-to-end view of the monitoring and inspection process.

• Interface for viewing information.

• Proof of concept for rapid implementation.

• Link to a video presentation of the solution.
Please include one link in the registration form to a presentation video or other material about your organization and/or solution.

Business Impacts:

The solution will allow for the early detection of engine problems, reducing downtime and lowering corrective maintenance costs. This approach will enable more efficient predictive maintenance planning.

Expected Benefits:

• Reduced costs associated with corrective maintenance.

• Increased engine lifespan.

• Improved operational availability of critical equipment.

• Increased efficiency and reduced operating costs.

• Greater control and security in operations.

• Mastery of new technologies and innovative processes.
