INTEGO for Rotating Machines

Developed as a risk mitigation tool, INTEGO is the only online solution for rotating machines that provides a comprehensive picture of PD events under different operating conditions.

Overview

The only solution to meet IEC 60034-27-2 standards for online monitoring of generators.

INTEGO is a unique online monitoring solution for rotating machines that provides a comprehensive picture of PD events under different operating conditions, including variable loads plus changes in temperature, humidity and other parameters. INTEGO uses powerful algorithms that can detect subtle anomalies in PD data, giving a clear picture of actual generator condition with lower risk of false alarms.

Understanding trends in Partial Discharge activity over time gives asset managers a powerful tool to assess generator condition, plan effective maintenance strategies and reduce the risk of costly failures.

Why INTEGO?

Easy to install and use, INTEGO is an ideal monitoring solution for asset managers to drive quick and accurate decision making.

How does it work?

As the only system in the market to meet IEC 60034-27-2 recommendation for on-line PD measurements, INTEGO features its own integrated web server, allowing managers to view PD activity under different operating conditions as an intuitive Partial Discharge Energy (PDE) map on any connected web browser.

Our innovative PDE Map enables Asset Managers to quickly and easily understand:

At which operating condition the PD is higher
What change in the operating condition would reduce the PD and degradation
Which machines more require attention and prompt maintenance

Spotlighting the PDE Map

PDE Map is a 2D representation of the machine status, load and temperature, where every ten minutes a dot in correspondence of the operating condition is shown and its color is related to the partial discharge energy index (from green to red based on the severity). The overall distribution of the points within the obtained map represents a very intuitive graphical visualization tool which makes the user confident to identify:

What are the operating conditions of the machine
In which operating condition PD are smaller and in which are higher
What is the predominant degradation mechanism

Key Capabilities

INTEGO represents the next generation of reliable PD monitoring for the global energy industry, key benefits include;

Provides weekly summary of PDE (PD Energy) at different operating conditions including machine start and stop
Results summarised and presented for correlation with other parameters
Enables easy interpretation of basic PD diagnostic information without specialist training
Allows in-depth analysis with evaluation of all common PD parameters including Qmax, Qm+, Qm-, NqN+, NqN-, Repetition Rates
Dynamic and automatic noise rejection, requires no manual tuning
Reliable alarms set on trends of PD at the same operating conditions

Driving Decision Making for Asset Managers

Developed to be accessed and analysed by engineers with little to no expertise in PD, INTEGO is one of the most user-friendly tools for PD diagnosis, enabling the users to:

Determine the best way to manage the generator operating condition to reduce insulation degradation and extend asset life
Mitigate failure risk to the asset
Effectively target and manage maintenance and re-investments
Save operating expenditures for PD analysis and PD measurements
Base critical decisions on International IEC Standards
