Abstract

A computer based data acquisition (DAQ) system plays an important role in Health Monitoring of any machine. Health Monitoring of a reciprocating air compressor using a computer based DAQ system and timely identification of potential faults can prevent failures. In this paper we have employed a graphical user interface for data acquisition that allows flexible acquisition and processing of analog and digital data. The first stage of Health Monitoring procedure is dedicated to collection of all necessary information about the machine. Our research is focused for finding sensitive positions. Also we have compared sensitive positions under healthy condition with the faulty condition.
