Bently 60M100 Condition Monitoring System

Bently 60M100 Condition Monitoring System

INTRODUCTION

The 60M100 Condition Monitoring System continuously monitors wind turbine machine trains using sophisticated signal processing algorithms and machine operating states. The 60M100 Monitoring System, as a part of condition-based maintenance, detects defects months in advance of a potential failure. Depending on the size of your wind farm, early detection can reduce outages and production loss, saving you hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars per year in lost revenue. With the advanced knowledge provided by the 60M100, you can schedule maintenance outages and crane operations in advance, reducing maintenance costs. The 60M100 Monitor can be used in several configurations: 

l As an independent, standalone condition monitoring system. 

l A networked, distributed collection of inter-operating systems. 

l As an integrated part of a machine OEM's control and instrumentation package.

60M100 Overview

The 60M100 Condition Monitoring System is specifically designed for continuous permanent monitoring of wind turbine generator machine trains. It is designed to monitor equipment that requires extremely high reliability and availability. The 60M100 System is designed to monitor essential characteristics and components of a wind turbine, including: 

l Tower sway 

l Main bearing 

l Main rotor 

l Gear boxes o All internal bearings o All bear meshes o Debris monitoring 

l Generator bearings 

l Generator grounding

System Features

The 60M100 monitors 150 static variables producing high resolution waveform data and trendllines.

The 60M100 is a powerful and versatile Condition Monitoring system that provides basic monitoring functions and advanced signal processing and rules in a compact, robust unit. The module conditions the input signals to make various measurements and compares the conditioned signals with userprogrammable alarms.

Capable of taking input from different sensor types, the 60M100 System can support up to 12 dynamic channel inputs, two Keyphasor signals, and digital communications. Channel 1 through channel 10 interface with 2-wire ICP type accelerometers. Channels 11 and 12 can be configured to interface with either 2-wire ICP type transducers or 3-wire proximity probes. Each dynamic channel can be independently configured with flexible signal processing options. The Keyphasor channels interface to either 3-wire proximity probes or other speed sensors which are powered externally.    

The module provides enhanced capability for monitoring rolling element bearing machinery and gearing through its 24 bit Analog/Digital conversion and 40 kHz bandwidth design.

The 60M100 System is not a substitute for hard wired safety systems, nor does it replace the standard systems for the acquisition of operational data of the wind turbine.
