The AIM-traded firm said Clarke Energy had decided to cooperate with GyroMetric to trial digital shaft monitoring to its generating equipment.
It said the monitoring would employ GyroMetric's digital monitoring of the bearings in the generator sets, and monitoring of shaft alignment.
The objective was to evaluate the potential to realise value by utilising a predictive maintenance strategy utilising real time data harvested by the GyroMetric system, rather than a time-based planned maintenance system.
“There is potential for savings in maintenance and downtime costs from such an approach,” the Remote Monitored Systems board said in its statement.
“This would support Clarke Energy's continual improvement programme to deliver increased value and machinery availability and reliability to its customers.
“In particular the use of GyroMetric's rapid intervention system which shuts down equipment automatically when serious faults are detected is thought to be particularly useful.”
The cooperation would begin with a pilot project, where a single generating set would be “comprehensively instrumented” with GyroMetric's monitoring systems, with digital information flowing into the internet as the equipment is run.
“Analysis of the data harvested, and experience gained during the installation, may point the way to spreading the technology around Clarke Generating sets installed around the UK.”
