Trending is a very powerful tool for machinery diagnostics. Although there are standards, and guidelines, each machine can run a little bit different. When the machine is a little out of the norm, these standards and guidelines may not suit that particular machine anymore.

PFE Limited have extensive experience with a whole host of machinery types, and we can custom program/set alarms based off your individual machines, and we look through data on every route (spectrums, waveforms, trends).

Do you like your reports a certain way?
We customise our reports based off your requirements, each of our customers have their own custom report format, and any time you wish to tweak or change your report, we can do that.

An ad-hoc (one-off) analysis visit may assist you to help identify what's happening with your asset with advanced analysis techniques such as phase analysis, modal testing, and more.

It's usually best to pair ad-hoc analysis with regular monitoring, whether in the form of an online system, or routine monitoring. That being said, PFE are able to assist you with your diagnostic requirements.

I‍t’s not always bearings or balance.
You can cause more problems by replacing bearings from a noisy machine, when it may be another issue altogether. Unfortunately, installation related faults are very common, and if there's nothing wrong with the bearings, it may cause further issues by replacing them prematurely.

There's not always a simple solution to every issue, sometimes you require something more specialist, or perhaps your machine is something that isn't covered in the 'norm', for example, a turbine.

Turbomachinery Analysis
‍It's no secret that not every analyst knows how to approach turbomachinery, specifically proximity probe measurements. Using the latest technology, we can measure turbomachinery from buffered outputs to take specific turbo-analysis parameters, and we have great connections to help you acquire new proximity probes/protection systems.

Modal Analysis (Impact Testing)
‍Whether a simple, single point impact test, or a complex multipoint modal analysis, we can perform these tests and interpret the results. We also have close partners who can assist with 3D modelling, and plotting the data into ME'Scope for full FEA analysis of the complex resonant problem.

‍One of the most frequent questions asked in the new digital age is Wired or Wireless. PFE believe in fair, non bias comparison between technologies and manufacturers and thus we will assess the best solution for your requirements and equipment.

There is no defining answer to whether wired or wireless is better, it depends on your requirements, equipment, and budget

We offer a number of brand solutions to pair with our preferred CTC accelerometers.
