Design/Project Engineering & Execution Phase
- Bid review, selection, specifications.
- Centrifuge design appraisals.
- Rotordynamics design appraisals (lateral, torsional).
- Review of hardware design & construction drawings with OEM engineers/experts.
- Centrifuge assembly inspection, balancing and shop testing.
- Installation & commissioning and performance examination during warrantee period.
Operational Phase
- Reliability & Mission time (extension studies).
- Performance gap/stretch studies.
- Centrifuges malfunctions diagnosis and cure (low-high density liquid separation issue, vibration, noise, resonance, lube oil, thermal signature, mechanical performance).
- Best practices of centrifuges condition monitoring, operation and maintenance.
- Condition-based inspection & maintenance schemes and decisions.
- On/off-lines condition monitoring schemes.
- Root cause investigation of distressed components, failure and restoration (shaft, bearings, seals, casing distortion, foundation).
- Life cycle cost & remaining life assessment.
