Condition monitoring

GasTOPS MetalSCAN is the most advanced and effective solution available today for reliable early detection of bearing damage in aero-derivative gas turbines.
MetalSCAN’s online lube oil debris monitoring provides a 24/7 assessment of the health status of all main bearings in a gas turbine. When a bearing problem occurs MetalSCAN signals this damage in a very early stage. After the initial signal(s) MetalSCAN provides real time trending information about the development of the damage. This information enables you, as a gas turbine operator, to undertake preventive and corrective actions while the engine is still running and to bring the engine to a scheduled stop before secondary damage occurs.

MetalSCAN benefits:
• Provides early bearing damage detection
• Plan maintenance actions before outage
• Avoid unplanned engine shutdowns
• Minimize loss of production & revenue
• Avoid costly secundary damage
• Reduce operation & maintenance costs
