  • Compressor incipient surge detection system
    Patent number: 6354806
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for monitoring the high-frequency of a process variable to prevent a compressor from reaching actual surge point. The detecting is accomplished by separating the high-frequency oscillation part of the process signal and transmitting the amplitude of this high-frequency oscillation component of the system signal via a controlled current loop to a controller. The circuit is housed in a small standard rail mount enclosure.
