ValvAware™ Online Monitoring

The ValvAware Online Monitoring tool lets you monitor and diagnose the health of the valve.

The left section contains a list of valves. The list is drilled-down as Customer > Plant > Unit > Location > Valves.

The condition of the valves is depicted in the sections to the right.

You can sort the left pane using the Sort By drop-down list.

For example: On sorting by Priority, a list displays valves categorized under each priority–High, Medium, Low, and Not Important.

On expanding any priority, you will view all the valves falling under that priority. You can click any valve to view its detailed information.

Distribution

In this case, there are total 25 valves, out of which:

  • 5 are Diagnosis active - these valves are in active diagnosis

  • 19 are Check Function - there is some issue with the valve, however it does not demand immediate attention

  • 1 is failure - number of valves that failed

  • 0 are diagnosis passive - valves that are in passive diagnosis

Valve Health Summary

A Valve Health Summary page provides a complete overview of the selected valve. It includes information such as:

  • current health indicator

  • performance of the valve based on some of the standard KPIs

  • valve image (if available, else default standard graphics is shown)

  • suggested actions to improve the overall health of the valve

You can filter to view the Valve health summary table. You can choose from the kind of data to be displayed:

And, you can choose the date range to view the table:

When you select a date range for a particular customer, say 3 months for customer A, the corresponding data for 3 months displays under the Valve Health Summary section.

You will see the same date range (3 months, in this case) applied at Unit and Valve levels in the hierarchy for that customer.

If there are multiple units under one customer, then changing the filter in one unit changes the filters in all of them.

To take a quick look at the Valve Health Summary, click any item in the Priority through Suggested Actions columns, for that valve. A pane displays at the right that contains health summary of the selected valve.

Now click either value in Tag or Serial Number for a valve. You will be navigated to the valve details page, where you will see 4 tabs—Diagnostic Summary, Performance, Data Collection, and Planning.

You will also view refresh and print icons and a time span list.

  • Clicking the refresh icon will refresh the page.

  • Clicking the print icon will print the page you are at in the application.

  • Clicking the time period dropdown lets you select the required period for which you want to view the data.

  • Selecting Custom date range opens the dialog box, where you can select the start and end date and click Apply.
