Continuous online monitoring
prevents unscheduled shutdowns

SPPA-D3000 Plant Monitor
is a self-engineering system for continuous
monitoring of the power plant in steady-state
and transient operating condition. Early
detection of faults prevents machine
failures and avoids high repair costs.
Your Benefits
SPPA-D3000 Plant Monitor
allows you to:
■ Avoid unscheduled
The Task
Anybody previously wanting to monitor the
state of components and processes was forced
to rely on systems which offered only limited
capabilities despite complex engineering.
Transient processes, for example, could not
be covered due to slow processing speeds,
thus excluding any genuinely continuous
monitoring and analysis of operating behavior.
Fast processing speeds and low engineering
costs became the focus of new developments.
Our Solution
Plant Monitor now makes it possible to monitor
and analyze all components and processes
online. High-speed processing enables the
system to cover steady-state and transient
operating modes, thus making the continuous
monitoring of all components and operating
modes feasible. The real operating behavior
is compared with the learned normal behavior
in real time. Even incipient deviations can be
detected promptly. Because the system
engineers itself – the normal process is modeled
fully automatically based on existing archive
data – the engineering effort is minimized.
Plant Monitor is completely embedded in the
Siemens I&C system SPPA-T3000. Its unique
operating and alarm concept is also fully
supported by systems from other suppliers,
however.
shutdowns
■ Increase plant availability
Fast, intuitive operation: a single click takes you from the alarm
list to modeling, monitoring and analysis.
■ Avoid high repair costs
Unlike conventional systems, SPPA-D3000 Plant Monitor detects
deviations from normal behavior in all operating modes.
