Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONMaximum reliability of in-service machine components and fluids requires a program of conditionmonitoring to provide timely indications of pe

3、rformance and remaining usable life. In order todiagnose and predict machinery and fluid condition, the rate of change must be trended. Level alarmsonly state how much damage has occurred. The predictive or forecasting nature of conditionmonitoring is based on trending in order to determine the degr

4、ee of damage and remaining useful lifeof the component or fluid.Equipment maintainers expect condition-monitoring information to clearly and consistently indicatemachinery condition, that is, the rate-of-change of component damage over time and the risk offailure. The data trending procedure must au

Scope1.1 This guide covers practical techniques for condition datatrend analysis.1.2 The techniques may be utilized for all instrumentationthat prov

Otherdata obtained and associated with the machine may also beused in determining the machine condition.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated

Summary of Guide4.1 This guide provides practical methods for the trendanalysis of condition data in the dynamic machinery operatingenvironment. Various trending

19、 techniques and formulae arepresented with their associated benefits and limitations.5. Significance and Use5.1 This guide is intended to provide machinery mainte-nance and monitoring personnel with a guideline for perform-ing trend analysis to aid in the interpretation of machinerycondition data.6.

20、 Interferences6.1 Sampling, maintenance, filter, and oil changes are rarelyperformed at precise intervals. These irregular, opportunisticintervals have a profound effect on measurement data andinterfere with trending techniques.6.2 Machinery OperationOperational intensity can im-pact how quickly a c

21、omponent wears and how rapidly a faultprogresses.3,4A relevant indicator of machine usage must beincluded in any calculations. The selected usage indicator mustreflect actual machine usage, that is, life consumed (forexample, stop/start cycles, megawatt hours, hours of use, orfuel consumption).6.3 M

22、aintenance EventsComponent, filter, and oilchanges impact the monitoring of machine performance, weardebris, contamination ingress and fluid condition. Maintenanceevents should always occur after a sample is taken (orcondition test is performed). All maintenance events should bedocumented and taken

23、into account during condition datainterpretation. In all cases, maintenance events, if not reported,will reduce trending reliability.6.4 Sampling ProceduresImproper or poor sampling tech-niques can profoundly impact condition test data (see PracticesD4057 and D4177). A significant difference in the

24、test datacould trigger a false trend alarm. Examples of poor samplingtechniques are:6.4.1 Stagnant sampling,6.4.2 Sampling after component change out,6.4.3 Sampling after oil, or filter changes, or both,6.4.4 Irregular sample intervals,6.4.5 Sampling intermittent or standby equipment withoutcirculat

25、ing the oil and bringing the equipment to operatingtemperatures.6.5 Laboratory and Testing PracticesThe tools used toperform the condition monitoring tests impact the data.6.5.1 Analytical instrument differences impact data reliabil-ity. Trending should only be performed on results from thesame make

26、 and model of test instrument. For example,trending atomic emission inductively coupled plasma (ICP)results should be from ICPs with the same sample introductionconfiguration, same plasma energy, and preferably, the samemanufacturer and model.6.5.2 Analytical instruments with poor measurement repeat

27、-ability and reproducibility will result in correspondingly poortrending. Testing repeatability should also be included with thetrending studies.6.5.3 Inappropriate analysis techniques can hide or distortinterpretational conclusions. The condition-monitoring toolchosen must provide evidence of the c

28、ritical failure modesunder review.6.6 Machinery Wear ProcessWear metal concentrationsin oil are subject to variability.46.6.1 Filters remove the majority of debris particles greaterthan filter pore size. Thus an oil sample only captures new wearand small, suspended, old wear.6.6.2 Wear particle rele

29、ase is event driven; increased load orspeed can result in increased wear.6.6.3 The rate of wear debris release is not linear with time.For many fault mechanisms, wear occurs in bursts.6.6.4 Wear metal analysis methods can have particle sizelimitations that should be included in the evaluations. Fore

30、xample, ICP metal analyses are limited to those particlesbelow nominally 8 microns.6.7 Reservoir/Sump VolumesFluid and wear conditionparameters are concentration measurements and are affected byreservoir/sump size. Varying the oil volumes in a reservoir canimpact the trending analysis. For example,

31、infrequent top upsallows the oil volume to decrease and thus concentrate the weardebris and contaminants. Alternatively, large volumes ofmake-up oil dilute the concentrations. Small, routine oiltop-ups reduce this interference. The fluid make-up rate shouldbe considered as apart of the evaluation pr

32、actice.6.8 When trending for a specific piece of equipment, oneshould look at the difference between the current sample and anaverage of a group of previous samples from that piece ofequipment or a group of samples from as many similar units aspossible.
