Using EDS data and tools, power generators can assess abnormal conditions that

could lead to infrastructure damage or widespread power outages.

Water plants can monitor increased flows within distribution networks to better predict flooding,

thus helping to prevent overflows and associated environmental impact. 

As an option, Ovation EDS can automate operator round activities,

including interfaces to computer maintenance or lab information systems and customized route and data collection templates. 

EDS data can also monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) for

measuring against objectives and generating required performance reports. Example KPIs include: 

▪ Power generation: fuel usage, plant availability, emissions, generation revenue, or efficiency (heat rate). 

▪ Water and wastewater plants: quality, compliance, energy usage, chemical usage, or operating and maintenance expenses. 

As an integrated information source, EDS provides valuable insights to all levels of an organization: 

▪ Executives or corporate management can obtain a complete view of district- or fleet-wide operations. 

▪ Plant management can view and trend information to make informed operating or maintenance decisions. 

▪ Plant supervisors, engineers, and technicians can easily evaluate process or plant status.

Applications 

EDS is a powerful tool that simplifies information management by consolidating data from disparate 

systems into a single source for remote monitoring and analysis.  

EDS delivers increased awareness of plant operations by securely connecting staff to near-real time and archived data,

regardless of geographic location. Timely and accurate representation of plant performance enables

more informed decision-making to enhance operations and streamline maintenance.  

For example, severe weather events pose many forms of danger to any industrial process site,

which could require plant staff, both on and off duty, to quickly troubleshoot problems before they escalate.

EDS provides critical process data to the right people at the right time, helping to mitigate emerging issues.

Product Description

The VerticalPlus I/O Interface Carrier plugs into the 4-Wide Power/Controller Carrier,

which provides power to the system and communication between the I/O interface and the controller.

The controller processes I/O interface information through the control module.

The VerticalPlus I/O Interface Carrier provides a separate bus field power connection for each I/O card.

The carrier is designed to support the same terminals as the horizontal carrier.

The carriers are mounted on T-shaped DIN rails.

Each I/O interface carrier is supplied with connectors for direct mating together.

A single I/O subsystem supports a total of eight 8-width I/O interface carriers for a maximum of 64 local I/O interface cards.

Cable extenders are used to connect carriers that cannot be installed next to each other,

allowing the carriers to be arranged in standard equipment cabinets.

The extender has two 22-pin D-type connectors and supports a dual cable fault-tolerant configuration.

Ports A and B are connected in parallel so that either port can be used.

The new Dual Carrier Extender also supports the redundant secure bus coaxial connectors used by DeltaV SIS.

The total length of the I/O bus is 6.5 metres (21.3 feet).

The VerticalPlus carrier can also be used for Zone 2 remote I/O devices to provide installation flexibility.

PeakVue technology not only offers the earliest warning of

developing faults, it also provides an indication of severity.

Measurements can be translated into reliable trends to

determine the optimal timing for maintenance. Machinery

faults are clearly visible in the waveform, opening up new

options for fault detection and diagnosis.

PeakVue Plus Analytics – The latest evolution of this

ground-breaking PeakVue technology is referred to as

“PeakVue Plus Analytics”. This innovative approach mimics

the process that an analyst would apply to determine the

nature of an abnormal situation, once it has been identified

on a machine based on the PeakVue level. At a high level,

machine faults can be categorized as mechanical or non

mechanical. Mechanical faults are caused by defects in

rolling element bearings or gears, and the signals they

generate are highly periodic. In contrast, non-mechanical

signals are typically the result of under-lubrication of the

bearing (or potentially cavitation on pumps). The signals

generated by under-lubrication are non-periodic –or

random – in nature. A trained analyst would employ a

technique called “Autocorrelation” to distinguish between

these two types of defects. In a similar manner, PeakVue

Plus Analytics applies autocorrelation and series of

sophisticated algorithms to determine the root cause of the

defect on a given machine.

Building on Field-Proven Technology

Emerson’s next generation vibration analyzer builds

on the field-proven, industry-leading technology of its predecessors.

Earliest Detection of Bearing and Gear Wear –

1. Detecting imbalance or misalignment is simple with most

data collectors, but these issues are the least impactful of

the faults you will find on your equipment. Over 50% of

mechanical faults are due to bearing and gearbox issues.

And most data collectors do not have the technology to

detect these faults as they are developing – and can only

find them when the machinery is already damaged and near failure.

The AMS 2140 uses Emerson’s patented PeakVue™

processing and applies digital technology to determine

bearing and gear wear earlier than any other technology.

By measuring stress waves emitted from impacting – the

earliest sign of bearing and gear wear – the AMS 2140 gives

you time to plan for maintenance on your machine – while

avoiding significant, and costly, damage.

A car charger option enables you to deliver a charge en route.

The AMS 2140 uses local hotspot availability to wirelessly

transfer data back to the office for quick analysis or from

remote locations to a centralized server. Your team can

perform route collection and analysis in parallel to maximize

your efficiency.

Embedded Intelligence

The ability to perform additional diagnostic tests at the

machine site transforms simple data collection into an

effective machinery health program. In today’s demanding

work environment, it is difficult to find the time to acquire

advanced analysis skills. Embedded intelligence, enabled

through Analysis Experts, allow even a novice user to

conduct sophisticated troubleshooting tests with the

touch of a button. Technicians don’t need to remember

the complexity of setting up a test they only perform a few

times a year – yet they can gain the benefit of its diagnostics

when needed. The bottom line impact is that users can

quickly do more in the field with the AMS 2140. avoiding

further deterioration of equipment condition.

Struggling to see the details of spectrum or waveform data due to sunlight or

other lighting conditions is a thing of the past. The AMS

2140’s glove-friendly touch screen features an auto light

sensor that adjusts the screen’s backlight to the ambient

lighting of the environment for optimal viewing. Visibility

is maintained as you move from one area of the plant to

another – from direct sunlight to darker interior locations.

A backlit keypad allows continued operation of the unit in

the darkest environments. In the office, the built-in stand

sets the unit at the best angle for viewing data. Charger and

communication cables are located at the top of the unit so

they do not interfere with the standing position.

Uninterrupted Route Collection. The AMS 2140 has the

longest battery life available in the market, which means no

more long trips back to the office to dump data or deal with

a dead battery. New Lithium-Ion batteries extend battery

life and route coverage to a full shift – maybe two – from a

single charge. If you do choose to change out the battery,

the unit is re-engineered to make the task simple enough

to accomplish even in the field. In addition, an external

charger allows you to charge a spare battery while you

continue to use your analyzer in the field.
