Solution Results and Benefits

SETPOINT: Complete vibration condition

monitoring capabilities using existing PI Systems

Business Challenge

• To deliver full vibration

condition monitoring

capabilities in the

customer’s existing PI

System infrastructure,

without sacrificing key

functionality

• Use PI System as repository

for high-speed waveforms as

well as fast (80ms) trend data,

providing data access through

PI ProcessBook and a

special-purpose visualization

client

“The ability to deliver full-featured vibration data within the PI System –

including millisecond trend resolution and complete waveforms – has been

very well received. Our customers get more out of their existing investment

in the PI System, and rotating machinery engineers are especially pleased

when they see that they do not have to sacrifice any of their special-

purpose vibration analysis data formats.”

President, Compressor Controls Corp.
