کتاب Troubleshooting Rotating Machinery

Preface

Troubleshooting is part science and part art. Simple troubleshooting tables or deci- sion trees are rarely effective in solving complex, real-world machine problems. For this reason, the authors wanted to offer a novel way to attack machinery issues that can adversely affect the reliability and effi- ciency of your plant processes. The meth-
odology presented in this book is not a rigid “cookbook” approach but rather a flexible and dynamic process aimed at exploring process plant machines holistically in order to understand and narrow down the true nature of the problem. Throughout this book, the term process machinery will be used to refer to rotating machinery com-
monly encountered in processing plants, such as centrifugal pumps and compres- sors, reciprocating pumps and compressors,fans, steam turbines, and electric motors.

• Our first book in this series, Is My Machine OK? deals, in large part, with assessing pro- cess machinery in the field. This guide takes the assessment process to the next level by helping
  operators, mechanics, managers, and machin- ery professionals better troubleshoot process machinery in-situ, i.e., in the field. To cover the topic of troubleshooting, the authors will cover
  the following topics in this book:
  • What field troubleshooting means and entails
  • How to use this guide as a complement to Is My Machine OK?
  • Using the “who, what, when, where, why” troubleshooting methodology
  • How to use cause maps to investigate possible causes
  • Real-world case studies
  • How to use machine-specific trouble- shooting tables
• To be successful, the troubleshooter must be per- sistent, open-minded and disciplined. Once field data is collected, an unbiased, logical approach to the finding is required to hone in on the most
  probable source of an observed symptom (or symptoms). Without a comprehensive and logi- cal analysis of the findings, the investigator is only guessing, which wastes valuable time and
  resources. We hope those reading and using this guide will fully utilize the ideas and concepts pre- sented to minimize maintenance cost and risk levels associated with machinery ownership.
