TDMS torsional vibration system featured in report by Energiforsk

by Francesco Lagrutta

We would like to extend a thank you to Harold Breitbach of Energiforsk Thermal Engineering Research Institute for including our TDMS system in their report about torsional vibrations in nuclear steam turbine applications. “Vibration problems in nuclear power plants can originate from different sources. One of these is torsional vibrations in shaft trains, which have … Continue reading TDMS torsional vibration system featured in report by Energiforsk

SuprockTech’s TDMS featured in EPRI hydropower journal

by Francesco Lagrutta

Our TDMS torsional vibration system has been featured in thus month’s EPRI Journal. It outlines how our data from our sensors has helped Duke Energy establish a more comprehensive plan for their upcoming upgrade at Bad Creek Pumped Storage Station. “By using the sensors, we’ve identified frequencies of concern that indicate torsional vibration,” said Duncan. … Continue reading SuprockTech’s TDMS featured in EPRI hydropower journal

AEP DC Cook Unit 2 install

by Christopher Suprock

This was a particularly challenging telemetry installation that we had the pleasure of solving for AEP nuclear. The installation was conducted in-situ in a bearing housing betwixt an oil deflector plate and the housing wall. The cook bearing 5 site was the grave of previous mortal attempts at telemetry measurements- This was a job for … Continue reading AEP DC Cook Unit 2 install
