Condition Monitoring for Power Generation

Noise and Vibration Industrial Hygiene
Larson Davis | Noise Dosimeters and Human Vibration Meters

Protecting workers from unsafe noise and vibration exposure is an essential part of ensuring occupational and workplace safety. Wireless Noise Dosimeters, with Intrinsically Safe units available, and Human Vibration Meters - all controlled by the LD Atlas™ App - are an ideal solution for monitoring the physical impact of noise and vibration in the plant.

Sound and Vibration Equipment Rentals
The Modal Shop | From Sensors to Systems

Would a Portable Vibration Calibrator simplify testing during your next outage? Need a batch of Noise Dosimeters for short-term monitoring? The Modal Shop's extensive Rental Program offers a large inventory of accelerometers, calibrators, noise dosimeters, sound level meters, and more. It's state-of-the-art technology at a fraction of the cost.

Digital Vibration Measurements
The Modal Shop | Digiducer® USB Digital Accelerometer

Simplify your predictive maintenance and vibration troubleshooting. Digiducer USB Digital Accelerometer allows you to take professional-grade vibration data straight from a PC, smartphone, or tablet. Turn any device into a portable, hand-held vibration meter or spectrum analyzer. 

Vibration and Pressure Measurements
PCB Piezotronics | Intrinsically Safe Differential Charge Accelerometers and High Temp Pressure Sensors

Condition monitoring - both combustion dynamics and vibration - is essential to ensure trouble-free operation, worker safety, and to prevent catastrophic failures. High Temperature Differential Charge Accelerometers and Combustion Instability Pressure Sensors are manufactured to meet specific power generation and petrochemical design requirements, including intrinsic safety certification.

On-Site Vibration Calibration and Verification
The Modal Shop | Portable Vibration Calibrators

Portable Vibration Calibrators are an ideal tool for checking critical vibration shutdown alarms and monitoring systems. The devices test accelerometers, velocity transducers, and proximity probes over a wide operating frequency and amplitude range. With a rugged case, long battery life, real-time sensitivity display, and ability to load and store pre-programmed calibration test points, these shaker tables are designed for the toughest conditions.

Generator Ground Fault Protection
Accumetrics | Earth Fault Resistance Monitoring Systems

Unplanned outages due to deterioration of rotor winding insulation are costly, but preventable. By continuously monitoring generators or motors with brushless exciters - while rotating or at standstill - ground faults can be detected prior to rotor damage. With both retrofit and new build configurations available, little to no shaft modification is necessary for installation.
