It is normal REGULATEURS EUROPA practice to keep monitoring and safety as separate functions to avoid common mode failures that could endanger the machinery.
Screen based monitoring systems are popular in many marine applications. RE can custom design screens and/or integrate SeaMACS monitoring displays from their sister company HEINZMANN Automation.

The advanced design of the TrinoDETECT unit allows continuous collection and monitoring of vibration frequency data from a number of machinery sensors. Using frequency analysis, the signature contained within the sensor data is assessed to diagnose common machinery faults. Alarm frequencies & amplitude levels automatically track & adapt themselves to the operating speed of the machinery, helping to ensure that Trino reliably senses any deviation from normal. Tracking is particularly useful for the successful monitoring of turbochargers.
TrinoALERT is typically mounted in a machinery control room & provides a centralised presentation of pre- and main alarms from one or more TrinoDetect units. Each alarm entry clearly indicates the machine & sensor reference, date/time log & a short diagnosis as to the most likely cause of the fault.
Regular transmission of detailed alarm & performance data via internet connection/ship to shore communications is available for vibration specialists to advise on an appropriate course of action. Alternatively, monthly health status reports can be provided under contract by RE Ltd. using its TrinoREMOTE specialist service.
