Root Cause Analysis & Perfomance Evaluation
Inadvertent failure of a major equipment, performance below desired degree without an apparent cause, un-explained operation of protective relaying or repeated tripping of circuit breakers are typical events that lead to downtime & even operational hazard. These are often difficult to predict and may bring in embarrassment, besides monetary loss, to operation & Maintenance personnel in mission critical applications.

Energy Integra offers a unique range of services to cover performance evaluation and failure analysis of a newly installed system or an existing system.

The activities call for co-ordination with equipment and installation vendors, design review and establishment of basis to evaluate the performance / diagnosis of failure.

Trouble-shooting and diagnostic techniques supported with advanced instrumentation offer an un-biased root cause analysis that conveys facts scientifically. This approach helps customer & vendor to avoid counter-arguments and seek remedial measures at the earliest.

Typical applications include

  1. Performance evaluation of HVAC system.
  2. Evaluation of performance of energy saving devices in terms of measurement of improved      energy efficiency against projected values.
  3. Performance evaluation of Energy Management System requiring periodic calibration and  refurbishment.
  4. Failure analysis of large sized motors, starting/running troubles.
  5. Failure analysis in IT installations like hard disk, SMPS, network cards and communication equipments, flickering of monitors, frequent re-booting of servers & workstations, etc.
  6. Untimely failures of luminaries.
  7. Early failure of power factor correction capacitors.
  8. Unequal loading of systems connected in parallel.

Dedicated services for IT Industry

IT installations typically comprise of Utility & Emergency power sources with fast changeover for raw power supply, large UPS for conditioned & un-interruptible power to workstations, servers and communication equipments, precision air conditioning, isolated earthing for UPS, etc. These equipments form the vital infra structure to ensure lowest possible downtime. However, inappropriate installation, abnormalities in power quality give rise to events like damages to hard disks, SMPS, network cards resulting in heavy losses. Moreover, other abnormalities like EMI affect data transmission.

Energy Integra offers specialized services to carry out Root-Cause-Analysis for such power quality sensitive installations and offers solutions to restore power quality and check damage to expensive high-end equipments.
