Steel is a build\u00ading mate\u00adr\u00adi\u00adal that runs through our entire lives. Most steel\u00adworks have been around since indus\u00adtri\u00adal\u00adiza\u00adtion and their mate\u00adr\u00adi\u00adal can be recy\u00adcled with almost no loss. Steel is also essen\u00adtial for the ener\u00adgy transition\u2014be it for the con\u00adstruc\u00adtion of elec\u00adtric motors or wind farms. But for its pro\u00adduc\u00adtion to meet the require\u00adments of the ener\u00adgy tran\u00adsi\u00adtion, it must become sus\u00adtain\u00adable. thyssenk\u00adrupp oper\u00adates Europe\u2019s largest steel\u00adworks near Duis\u00adburg and is active\u00adly work\u00ading on the future sus\u00adtain\u00adabil\u00adi\u00adty of its pro\u00adduc\u00adtion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis not only includes sourc\u00ading more and more elec\u00adtric\u00adi\u00adty from renew\u00adable sources,\u201d explains Fabi\u00adan Mar\u00adquardt, Engi\u00adneer High Volt\u00adage Tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy and Grid Plan\u00adning, \u201cthyssenk\u00adrupp Steel is cur\u00adrent\u00adly under\u00adgo\u00ading a trans\u00adfor\u00adma\u00adtion towards CO2-free steel pro\u00adduc\u00adtion at our site in Duis\u00adburg. This strat\u00ade\u00adgy also includes ensur\u00ading the longevi\u00adty of our own equip\u00adment by expand\u00ading pre\u00adven\u00adtive main\u00adte\u00adnance in a tar\u00adget\u00aded man\u00adner.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MELTING AWAY:<\/strong> Europe\u2019s largest steel\u00adworks needs a lot of electricity\u2014and it must always flow safe\u00adly through\u00adout the plant since out\u00adages would quick\u00adly lead to high costs. \u00a9 thyssenk\u00adrupp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

MOVING FORWARD CONFIDENTLY: <\/strong>Fabi\u00adan Mar\u00adquardt is famil\u00adiar with MR\u2019s prod\u00aducts and ser\u00advices and intends to con\u00adtin\u00adue using them in his fleet. \u00a9 thyssenk\u00adrupp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

TESSA\u00ae FLEETSCAN 2D is designed to help with this. Using this dig\u00adi\u00adtal con\u00adsult\u00ading approach from MR, the spe\u00adcial\u00adists first record a large amount of mea\u00adsure\u00adment data from the oper\u00adat\u00ading equip\u00adment and then eval\u00adu\u00adate it. This cre\u00adates a detailed pic\u00adture of the con\u00addi\u00adtion of the assets in terms of two dimen\u00adsions: the risk of fail\u00adure and life\u00adtime con\u00adsump\u00adtion. The fail\u00adure risk index is aimed at ser\u00advice man\u00adagers and looks to the imme\u00addi\u00adate future, while the ser\u00advice-life con\u00adsump\u00adtion index is aimed at asset man\u00adagers and their bud\u00adgets for long-term plan\u00adning deci\u00adsions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Togeth\u00ader they serve to devel\u00adop a main\u00adte\u00adnance strat\u00ade\u00adgy based on the con\u00addi\u00adtion of a fleet. Repeat\u00aded at inter\u00advals of one to three years, TESSA\u00ae FLEETSCAN 2D pro\u00advides an accu\u00adrate pic\u00adture of the con\u00addi\u00adtion of the equip\u00adment, which can be seen at a glance using the asso\u00adci\u00adat\u00aded soft\u00adware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HOT SHOTS:<\/strong> Dur\u00ading the train\u00ading, the tech\u00adni\u00adcians learned how to take ther\u00admal images\u2014can be done at any time dur\u00ading operation\u2014and how to inter\u00adpret what they show. \u00a9 Maschi\u00adnen\u00adfab\u00adrik Rein\u00adhausen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Since the eval\u00adu\u00ada\u00adtion is only as good as the pre\u00advi\u00adous\u00adly mea\u00adsured data, the MR spe\u00adcial\u00adists nor\u00admal\u00adly col\u00adlect this data them\u00adselves at the customer\u2019s premis\u00ades. In Duis\u00adburg, how\u00adev\u00ader, they took a dif\u00adfer\u00adent approach, explains Philipp Birgmeier, Tech\u00adni\u00adcal Con\u00adsul\u00adtant in the Ser\u00advice depart\u00adment: \u201cthyssenk\u00adrupp has very well-trained spe\u00adcial\u00adists and want\u00aded to read out the trans\u00adformer data them\u00adselves. That\u2019s why we held a two-day train\u00ading course on site which will enable the spe\u00adcial\u00adists to inspect their equip\u00adment based on our spec\u00adi\u00adfi\u00adca\u00adtions, and col\u00adlect the data nec\u00ades\u00adsary for our sub\u00adse\u00adquent eval\u00adu\u00ada\u00adtion.\u201d Mar\u00adquardt adds: \u201cThe pre\u00advi\u00adous assess\u00adment aspects such as oil analy\u00adses or elec\u00adtri\u00adcal mea\u00adsure\u00adments are com\u00adbined and sup\u00adple\u00adment\u00aded by the stan\u00addard\u00adized visu\u00adal inspec\u00adtion. In this way, we ensure that the bud\u00adget is used in the right places and that new acqui\u00adsi\u00adtions are ini\u00adti\u00adat\u00aded in good time despite long deliv\u00adery times.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LEARNING THE THEORY<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the train\u00ading, the thyssenk\u00adrupp spe\u00adcial\u00adists were first taught some the\u00ado\u00adry. \u201cOn the first day, we explained the data col\u00adlec\u00adtion to them and my col\u00adleague Nina Mach\u00adnikows\u00adki from Devel\u00adop\u00adment sup\u00adport\u00aded the par\u00adtic\u00adi\u00adpants in installing and using the TESSA\u00ae FLEETSCAN 2D web appli\u00adca\u00adtion,\u201d says Birgmeier. Users can lat\u00ader save the mea\u00adsured data and asso\u00adci\u00adat\u00aded doc\u00adu\u00adments via the app and retrieve them at any time, as well as check the val\u00adues of the eval\u00adu\u00ada\u00adtion car\u00adried out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

WORKSHOP IN THE PLANT: <\/strong>On the sec\u00adond day of the train\u00ading, Birgmeier explains on site how the mea\u00adsure\u00adments on the trans\u00adformer are con\u00adduct\u00aded. \u00a9 Maschi\u00adnen\u00adfab\u00adrik Rein\u00adhausen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The next day was all about prac\u00adtice: after repeat\u00ading the the\u00ado\u00adry, the engi\u00adneers and tech\u00adni\u00adcians col\u00adlect\u00aded the data on two trans\u00adform\u00aders using ther\u00admal imag\u00ading cam\u00aderas and the addi\u00adtion\u00adal exper\u00adtise of the MR pro\u00adfes\u00adsion\u00adals. Birgmeier explains: \u201cThis includ\u00aded learn\u00ading to read the ther\u00admal images which are non-con\u00adtact, non-destruc\u00adtive imag\u00ading in real time, so they can be tak\u00aden dur\u00ading oper\u00ada\u00adtion and pro\u00advide great insight into the con\u00addi\u00adtion of the equip\u00adment if you know what to look out for.\u201d The aim here is to cre\u00adate a stan\u00addard\u00adized eval\u00adu\u00ada\u00adtion sys\u00adtem.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trained in this way, thyssenk\u00adrupp employ\u00adees were able to record and enter the rel\u00ade\u00advant trans\u00adformer data them\u00adselves over the fol\u00adlow\u00ading few weeks which was then sent to MR togeth\u00ader with doc\u00adu\u00adments from pre\u00advi\u00adous mea\u00adsure\u00adments. \u201cWe then eval\u00adu\u00adate every\u00adthing and write a detailed inspec\u00adtion report for each trans\u00adformer as well as a fleet report that assess\u00ades the con\u00addi\u00adtion of all assets as a whole,\u201d explains Birgmeier, who is very sat\u00adis\u00adfied with the pilot project. \u201cWe can well imag\u00adine estab\u00adlish\u00ading this pro\u00adce\u00addure with oth\u00ader cus\u00adtomers. The train\u00ading has shown us that this type of know-how trans\u00adfer works well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur tech\u00adni\u00adcians and main\u00adte\u00adnance staff were enthu\u00adsi\u00adas\u00adtic about the prac\u00adti\u00adcal train\u00ading.\u201d<\/p>\nFabi\u00adan Mar\u00adquardt, Engi\u00adneer High Volt\u00adage Tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy and Grid Plan\u00adning, thyssenk\u00adrupp<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Mar\u00adquardt agrees: \u201cOur tech\u00adni\u00adcians and main\u00adte\u00adnance staff were enthu\u00adsi\u00adas\u00adtic about the prac\u00adti\u00adcal train\u00ading. The core objec\u00adtive was to teach them how to use the tool to enable them to car\u00adry out visu\u00adal inspec\u00adtions, and it was very impor\u00adtant to us that the tool was easy to use on the indi\u00advid\u00adual end devices. The test eval\u00adu\u00ada\u00adtions car\u00adried out met all objec\u00adtives, and all ques\u00adtions that arose were answered imme\u00addi\u00adate\u00adly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PRACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once the reports are ready, tech\u00adni\u00adcians can also view them in the app at any time. In addi\u00adtion to show\u00ading the con\u00addi\u00adtions, they also con\u00adtain clear and pri\u00ador\u00adi\u00adtized rec\u00adom\u00admen\u00adda\u00adtions for main\u00adte\u00adnance and repair of the indi\u00advid\u00adual units. If TESSA\u00ae FLEETSCAN 2D is repeat\u00aded in a few years, this will make the fore\u00adcasts and rec\u00adom\u00admen\u00adda\u00adtions even more accu\u00adrate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But why is such a detailed review of oper\u00adat\u00ading equip\u00adment so impor\u00adtant? In Duis\u00adburg, the steel\u00adworks fleet con\u00adsists of a total of 68 medi\u00adum-volt\u00adage and high-volt\u00adage trans\u00adform\u00aders that sup\u00adply the plant and espe\u00adcial\u00adly the smelter with ener\u00adgy. Some of these trans\u00adform\u00aders are already at an advanced age. How\u00adev\u00ader, new pur\u00adchas\u00ades are cur\u00adrent\u00adly quite dif\u00adfi\u00adcult because deliv\u00adery times for both new trans\u00adform\u00aders and spe\u00adcial com\u00adpo\u00adnents are between two and four years, depend\u00ading on the mod\u00adel, man\u00adu\u00adfac\u00adtur\u00ader and intend\u00aded pur\u00adpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EVERYTHING AT A GLANCE: <\/strong>This par\u00adtic\u00adu\u00adlar\u00adly applies to the large trans\u00adformer fleet for which FLEETSCAN 2D makes it clear where mon\u00adi\u00adtor\u00ading will be par\u00adtic\u00adu\u00adlar\u00adly impor\u00adtant. \u00a9 thyssenk\u00adrupp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA sud\u00adden fail\u00adure means a high finan\u00adcial risk, espe\u00adcial\u00adly in indus\u00adtry,\u201d explains Birgmeier. Due to the high pri\u00ador\u00adi\u00adty of the infra\u00adstruc\u00adture, it is com\u00admon prac\u00adtice for net\u00adwork oper\u00ada\u00adtors to car\u00adry out metic\u00adu\u00adlous main\u00adte\u00adnance and keep reserve trans\u00adform\u00aders ready so that the pow\u00ader sup\u00adply is guar\u00adan\u00adteed at all times. In indus\u00adtry, how\u00adev\u00ader, this is not pos\u00adsi\u00adble for all assets, and trans\u00adform\u00aders are replaced only as required. In some coun\u00adtries, there is a trend towards oper\u00adat\u00ading trans\u00adform\u00aders under high\u00ader loads and replac\u00ading them in good time, but this no longer works giv\u00aden the cur\u00adrent deliv\u00adery times, and it is also not a par\u00adtic\u00adu\u00adlar\u00adly sus\u00adtain\u00adable approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the steel\u00adworks in Duis\u00adburg, these long deliv\u00adery times mean going the extra mile in terms of main\u00adte\u00adnance and con\u00addi\u00adtion analy\u00adsis and keep\u00ading a con\u00adstant eye on the assets even dur\u00ading oper\u00ada\u00adtion. \u201cThe right sen\u00adsor tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy is also cru\u00adcial for this,\u201d says Mar\u00adquardt \u201cand this is where we rely on online hydro\u00adgen detec\u00adtion with the MSENSE\u00ae DGA2 sen\u00adsors from MR which detect creep\u00ading increas\u00ades in the hydro\u00adgen con\u00adtent in the oil at an ear\u00adly stage and help to avoid seri\u00adous faults in the trans\u00adformer. The aim is to enable the fault in the trans\u00adformer sta\u00adtion to be repaired at short notice instead of suf\u00adfer\u00ading a total loss. It was good that we received an ear\u00adly and com\u00adpe\u00adtent overview of the new TESSA\u00ae FLEETSCAN 2D and MSENSE\u00ae DGA2 sen\u00adsor tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy via long-stand\u00ading MR sales con\u00adtact Wern\u00ader Sam\u00admet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
