Abstract
This paper presents a realization of check valve condition monitoring system based on fault diagnosis algorithm and Fieldbus communication. We first acquired AE(acoustic emission) sensor data at the check valve test loop, extract fault features through the teamed neural network, and send the processed data to a remote site. The overall system has been implemented and experimented results are given to show its effectiveness.
