Brief Description (Abstract):

Lifeline to Indian research station Maitri in Antarctica, are the 10 diesel generating (DG) sets, that provide not only basic amenities such as heating, lighting, water; but also communication and power for the scientific instrumentation at the station. Spare parts for the DG sets can only be brought in once during the summer, when the new expedition team arrives with supplies from India. Expert advice may not be available all the time at the station.

Status: Completed

Purpose: Due to this fact and the critical nature of the power supply, condition-based telemonitoring programme for the station has been envisaged. Planned beginning has been made with off-line data collection and computer based analysis with remote monitoring capabilities. The type 2526 Data Collector of B&ampK is used to regularly log measurements at predefined points on the DG sets. The data is then transmitted via SATCOM/e-mail to R&ampDEE office in India, where it is stored and analysed in the Compass database. Consultative advice on any incipient faults detected, recommended maintenance action, spare parts optimisation etc. is then directed back to the Data Collector operator in Antarctica, again via SATCOM/email.
