Pushing machines to the limit:Transitioning to digital overspeed protection

摘要

Engineers need to understand rotating machinery designs and limits, conduct thorough analysis, and test for protection from overspeed catastrophes.Operating machinery within designated limits leads to optimal performance and useful machinery lifecycle results. Running an engine too fast can lead to compromised employee safety, system failures, damaged systems, and unplanned downtime. Over the past five years, solutions are available to help eliminate potential risk factors and improve the overall safety and efficiency of plant operations.
