Why do we need oil analysis and online monitoring?

Key components or links:

Compressor

The petrochemical industry widely uses centrifugal, reciprocating and other types of compressors for conveying gas or liquid. The lubrication system of the compressor is crucial, and the quality of the oil directly affects the operating efficiency and life of the compressor.

Pump

Various types of pumps (such as centrifugal pumps and plunger pumps) are used to convey media such as oil and chemicals. The lubrication system of the pump needs to be monitored regularly to ensure its normal operation.

Turbine

The turbine is an important power equipment in the petrochemical plant. The quality of the lubricating oil directly affects the efficiency and reliability of the turbine.

Transmission system

Large equipment in petrochemical plants (such as agitators and conveyor belts) are usually equipped with complex transmission systems, and the state of the lubricating oil is crucial to the operation of these systems.

Main fan

The main function of the fan is to promote air flow and achieve process air distribution requirements.

Why is monitoring necessary?

Prevent equipment failure

Petrochemical equipment usually operates in high temperature, high pressure, and corrosive environments, and lubricating oil is easily contaminated or aged. Through oil analysis, these problems can be discovered in time, equipment failures can be avoided, and production continuity can be ensured.

Ensure safety

The petrochemical industry involves flammable and explosive substances, and equipment failure may cause serious safety accidents. Through oil monitoring, potential problems can be discovered in advance and the risk of accidents can be reduced.

Optimize maintenance

Based on the results of oil analysis, a scientific maintenance plan can be formulated to avoid excessive or insufficient maintenance and reduce maintenance costs.

The risks of not monitoring your oil

Equipment damage

Aging or contamination of lubricating oil may cause increased equipment wear and even cause serious mechanical failures, resulting in equipment downtime and affecting production efficiency.

Environmental pollution

Equipment failure may cause leakage, pollute the environment, violate environmental regulations, face fines and reputation losses.

Safety accidents

Failure of petrochemical equipment may cause serious accidents such as fire and explosion, endangering the safety of life and property.

Production interruption

Failure to monitor oil may cause sudden equipment failure, causing production interruption and affecting the economic benefits of the enterprise.
