Novel Distributed Sensors Network Integrated With IOT For Industrial Asset Integrity Monitoring

腐蚀雷达（CR）有限公司致力于成为智能基础设施遥感技术和先进分析系统的全球领导者。对腐蚀和绝缘下腐蚀（CUI）的监测可能会导致许多部门的灾难性故障和主要停机时间，这是公司的主要关注点。目前的大多数腐蚀检测实践使用的是反应性方法和人工非破坏性技术，以及数据有限的风险管理。本项目提出的关键技术创新是基于物联网基础设施的CUI监控传感器分布式系统。CR技术的主要任务是在不影响人员、资产和环境安全的情况下降低维护成本。这也将减少停机时间，同样可以应用于许多行业，如石油和天然气，可再生能源，化学和火力发电厂以及核能。在该项目中，CR与行业领先的传感器和成像系统创新中心（CENSIS）合作，提出了物联网基础设施（包括硬件，电源和连接解决方案）的技术可行性研究，该基础设施将使CR分布式传感器网络和其他数据流的数据能够被处理并作为可操作的信息到达最终用户。通过减少大规模部署CR传感器的障碍，并为工业资产管理提供预测性维护机制，从而提高了效率。这对于不同行业的安全关键资产和操作非常有价值，有助于避免灾难性故障和重大停机时间。它将帮助资产管理者计划维护，降低运营成本。

CORROSION RADAR (CR) LIMITED strives to be a global leader in remote sensing technologies and advanced analytics systems for smart infrastructures. Monitoring the Corrosion and Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) that can cause catastrophic failures and major downtime for many sectors, are the main focus of the company. Most of the current practises of corrosion detection uses a reactive approach and manual non-destructive techniques and risk management where limited data is available. The key technical innovation proposed in this project is a CUI monitoring sensor distributed system with the IoT infrastructure.The primary mission of the CR technology is to reduce maintenance cost without compromising on the safety of people, assets and environment. This will also lead to reducing downtime and can equally be applied to many sectors such as Oil & Gas, renewables, chemical and thermal power plants and nuclear.In this project, CR in collaboration with the industry-led Innovation Centre for Sensor and Imaging Systems (CENSIS), is proposing technical feasibility study towards an IoT infrastructure (including the hardware, power and connectivity solutions) that will enable data from the CR distributed sensors network and other data streams, to be processed and arrive as actionable info to the end user. The efficiencies are created through reducing the barrier to large scale deployment of CR sensors, and enabling a predictive maintenance regime to the industrial asset management.This is very valuable for safety critical assets and operation in different sectors which help in avoiding catastrophic failures and major downtime. It will assist an asset manager to plan maintenance reducing operation cost.
