What is Remote Diagnostics?

HYDRON provides Pipe Network Analysis and Optimization (PNAO) to all industrial segments. Considering the Necessity of PNAO for the far-flung Clients, HYDRON has developed an exclusive Service “REMOTE DIAGNOSTICS.” What is PNAO?

In Remote Diagnostics, HYDRON and the distant Clients communicate to each other from their existing location thus eliminating Migration time which results in improved efficiency and delivers a global standard service. Also, eliminating all the paper-works & limiting hazards; Remote Diagnostics helps in providing High-quality Solution.

Remote Diagnostics is an ideal option for Manufacturing Facilities and Engineering/Consulting firms across the globe to utilize HYDRON’s expertise in Analysis of Utility & Process systems.

What kind of projects can be performed in Remote Diagnostics?

Pipelines

  • Re-designing existing pipelines
  • Designing pipes for proposed lines.
  • Network analysis of existing Pipelines for systems such as
    • Cooling Water
    • Chilled Water
    • Steam
    • Compressed Air
    • Condensate
    • Natural Gas
    • Nitrogen
    • Hot Water
    • Process fluid
    • Other systems
  • Validation of projects planned by client (related to changes in pipelines)

Pipelines

  • Identify potential of implementing VFD’s to pumps – Can it provide required flow and pressure.
  • Identify increase in flow and pressure by deploying new pumps
  • Selecting correct pump curve (to get desired flow rates and pressure)
  • Benefits of new pumps
    (By calculating improvement in flow, pressure or power consumption)
  • Designing right pump suction piping (as it is important for system efficient performance)
  • Identify performance of pumps

Compressor

  • Selecting correct pipe size for compressed air header to minimize pressure drops
  • Proper pipe designing to ensure required pressure to users

Nozzles, Sprinklers

  • Calculate reason for low flow through existing
    • nozzles,
    • headers
  • Selecting right pump to provide required flow and pressure through existing nozzles
  • Selecting right nozzle to provide desired flow and pressure

Heat Exchangers

  • Selecting right Heat Exchanger for existing systems (right design flow rate and pressure drop to draw required flow from existing system)
  • To calculate flow rate increase by installed new equipment, like Heat Exchanger, coil, etc.

Valves

  • Selecting valve % open to balance flows through existing systems (like typical Cooling or Chilled Water)
  • Selecting right valves for pipe flow rates (to ensure low pressure drop)
  • Selecting right location to place valves

Flow meters

  • Selection of Flowmeters
  • Calculating pressure drops for flow meters (orifice, venturi, turbine, etc.)

Strainer

  • Designing correct strainer
  • Calculation of pressure drop due to strainer

Insulation

  • Calculating heat losses due to un-insulated pipes
  • Determining optimum insulation thickness
  • Identifying ROI for insulation
  • Selecting right type of insulation and its thickness
