  • Patent number: 11567487
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to diagnosing a fault in an electric drive of a process plant. The fault diagnosis method includes receiving fault data from an electric drive upon occurrence of the fault. The method further includes obtaining a fault code and a drive type associated with the electric drive from the fault data. In addition, the method comprises determining one or more drive parts to replace by comparing the fault code and the drive type with a mapped data for a plurality of drive types. The mapped data for each drive type includes a relation between a plurality of fault codes and a plurality of drive parts. The method further includes initiating a maintenance operation involving replacement of the one or more drive parts to address the fault.

  • Patent number: 11467214
    Abstract: One illustrative method comprises retrieving a set of drive information associated with an operation of an electric drive in a time period from a drive control unit and one or more sensor units. The method further includes obtaining reliability information associated with the electric drive from a server. The reliability information is computed in the server, with the set of drive information and a model corresponding to a drive type of the electric drive. The reliability information includes a probability of occurrence of the abnormal condition in a specified future time period. The method further includes, providing at least one condition indication regarding the abnormal condition to one of a human machine interface and a drive controller based on the probability of occurrence of the abnormal condition.

  • Publication number: 20220206483
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a system for production accounting in process industries using Artificial Intelligence (AI). More particularly the present invention relates to fault detection in a plurality of measuring instruments and process equipment in a process plant. A plurality of measured signals from the measuring instruments is received by the process control system and noise is extracted from the plurality of measured signals. The extracted noise is correlated with a noise extracted from a plurality of reference signals using an AI based data analysis technique. Further, the process control system identifies deviations in the one or more parameters. The process control system detects the faults the plurality of measuring instruments or the process equipment using the correlated noises and the identified deviations of the one or more parameters.

  • Publication number: 20220004176
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses method and control system for detecting condition of plurality of process equipment in industrial plant. The proposed methodology implements machine learning techniques for detecting the fault. The machine learning techniques include supervised learning and unsupervised learning. Real-time values of plurality of parameters associated with each of the plurality of process equipment along with weight matrix and threshold attribute is used in the unsupervised learning to detect the condition. The weight matrix associated with each of the plurality of process equipment is generated using the supervised learning. Plurality of historic values of the plurality of parameters relating to the corresponding process equipment are analysed in the supervised learning to generate the weight matrix for the corresponding process equipment.
