Our experts use advanced machine learning to identify potential issues like wear on gap rings early, allowing operators to take proactive measures and prevent unexpected failures. Through our HydroxOptimize Service, they provide regular reports with detailed recommendations, ensuring optimal performance and reliability for our customers.
Hydropower plant operators must constantly balance efficiency and reliability while minimizing unexpected failures. One key challenge is detecting wear on critical components like gap rings early enough to take action before performance is affected.
With HydroxOptimize, our experts leverage AI-driven machine learning models to analyze real-time operational data. By identifying abnormal trends—such as rising axial thrust, increased bearing temperatures, and efficiency losses—our system provides valuable insights long before a failure occurs. Combining reliable control with AI-powered expert recommendations, we help operators make data-driven decisions for optimal plant performance.
By detecting potential issues early, our approach helps prevent costly unplanned downtime, ensuring maximum energy production and long-term asset reliability.
Unplanned downtime at hydropower plants results in significant costs and operational inefficiencies. Operators face the challenge of detecting potential problems early enough to make timely repairs and avoid system failures.
Using state-of-the-art machine learning technology and statistical analysis, HydroxOptimize and our experts identify potential issues accurately. For example, our system detected an abnormal pressure increase behind a labyrinth seal and predicted repair necessity more than six months in advance.
Proactive analysis enabled the customer to schedule the repair and restore the turbine to full efficiency before an unplanned outage occurred. This saved time and money and prevented unnecessary downtime.
Our service has proven its reliability and effectiveness in countless hydropower plants worldwide. This innovative software seamlessly integrates with existing systems, providing accurate data analysis, real-time monitoring, and intelligent control to maximize performance and reduce downtime.
