ADSR® is an integrated diagnostic system, which offers a remote monitoring of the conditions in a slip ring unit. The aim is an improved planning of condition based maintenance measures.
The diagnostic system ADSR® is integrated inside the housing and constantly monitors key parameters of a slip ring unit. It thereby anticipates possible malfunctions.
If a failure is detected, the central control unit receives an alert signal. In addition, information on vibration, voltage level, power level, rotational counts and speed, as well as, optionally, the internal/external humidity and temperature during operations is supplied to the operator. The analysis of this operational data allows estimates of the remaining lifetime of the slip ring unit – both in terms of time and rotations.
The warning and alert information of the diagnostic system is transmitted via a signal cable and also visualized directly on the slip ring unit by an LED. The currently measured values and the alarm history are also available through browser-based network interfaces. The monitoring system of the slip ring unit can be connected to SCADA via an SNMP (TCP/IP) interface.
