The results of the PRANA System work are presented at the LXVI scientific and technical conference of the Russian Academy of Sciences on problems of gas turbines

The industrial Internet begins with the introduction of systems based on mutual penetration of information technologies and automation devices of manufacturing equipment, such as the systems of remote monitoring and diagnostics. One of the inspection methods of the equipment’s condition is its continuous monitoring, which is a necessary condition for the transition to a service system on the operating condition

According to Mikhail Lifshitz, Chairman of the Board of Directors of ROTEC, Russian power engineering company, the venture capital market in its present state is currently raising people whose aim is not to create a winning product, but just to raise funds. With regard to his business, Mr. Lifshitz abandoned the speculative component and headed for the long-term integration of ideas into production.

Despite the hazy weather and pouring rain, the yachtsmen were in a terrific mood! Three crews of racing yachts in Olympic Class SB20, mainly represented by employees of ROTEC, PRANA and TEEMP, took the whole winners podium in the amateur competition. For most of the participants, it was their first-ever experience of this kind – and they claimed victory straight away!

The trend towards digitalization and flourishing of the service economy have led to the emergence of a new model – Maintenance-as-a-Service. Let’s explore how it’s organized and the benefits that it offers to business.

The Internet of Things (IoT) integrates devices into a computer network and allows them to collect, analyze, process and transmit data to other facilities via software, applications or technical devices

As of 2021, the PRANA hardware-software package is the first of the industrial systems for predictive analytics and remote monitoring to switch to the Russian analytical database management system Yandex ClickHouse.

Monitoring-and-diagnostics data (M&D) form the basis for determining the technical condition of high-voltage equipment and developing repair schedules for such equipment. World experience shows that from the economic standpoint, it is expedient to carry out such monitoring using the remote online monitoring of facilities. In this case, all generator assemblies can be monitored online. At present, the corresponding measuring base has been created for each component of a modern generator, which makes it possible to equip generators with sensors and systems for monitoring and diagnostics in any variation and package (in terms of control).

Predictive analytics and online IIoT surveillance systems respond to modern challenges

The introduction of a self-isolation regime, along with measures to prevent the rapid spread of coronavirus infection, has affected many businesses, and has brought some to a complete halt. However, IIoT solutions have revealed new opportunities for responding to the changing situation. The PRANA hardware and software complex has made it possible to minimize the negative consequences of the ongoing situation.
