Health Monitoring System Evaluation (469)
Problem: Evaluate the performance of equipment health monitoring system under practical, operational conditions.
Project Activity Scope (from Technical
Overview Chart): Controls and Measurements through Integrated Systems
PNNL Solution:
- Prepared instrument shipping containers to support experimental evaluation.
- Recorded independent sensor and monitoring system data under range of operating conditions.
- Analyzed and compared data sets to assess monitoring system performance.
- Documented system performance against client evaluation criteria.
Capabilities Employed to Meet Client Needs: Mechanical design of sensor module and attachment to shipping container, mechanical drop testing (test planning, equipment configuration, test performance, data collection and analysis, reporting), analytical modeling to relate sensor data to shock levels experienced by the product in shipping case, preparation of damage threshold recommendations, review with client staff.)
