01 / Real time
Actual vs predicted
Continuously compare measured performance against expected performance at the current inlet conditions.
CMap Monitoring
Continuous performance tracking during compressor operation
CMap Monitoring is the real-time execution companion of CMap, designed to continuously compare measured compressor performance with expected behavior calculated at the actual operating conditions.
Operational value
From periodic checks to continuous insight
Compressor performance evaluation becomes significantly more powerful when the expected baseline is recalculated continuously and compared with plant measurements over time.
02 / Trends
Efficiency deviation tracking
Follow performance degradation trends over time and detect changes before they become operational issues.
03 / Diagnostics
Anomaly detection support
Identify abnormal compressor behavior and provide objective evidence for investigation and troubleshooting.
04 / Decisions
Maintenance support
Give operation and maintenance teams quantitative indicators for planning inspections and corrective actions.
Monitoring workflow
Expected performance is recalculated while the machine operates
CMap Monitoring uses live or historical plant data to execute the CMap calculation logic automatically. The result is a continuous expected-vs-measured comparison suitable for predictive maintenance strategies.
1
Acquire plant data
Collect pressure, temperature, flow, speed, power and gas-related operating information.
2
Calculate expected behavior
Run CMap predictions at the same operating conditions of the measured compressor point.
3
Compare deviations
Evaluate differences between measured and predicted parameters using condition-consistent references.
4
Trend machine health
Store and visualize deviation trends to support diagnostics, maintenance and performance reviews.
Correct baseline
Monitoring is only meaningful when the reference follows the operating conditions
A compressor rarely operates at its original datasheet conditions. CMap Monitoring addresses this by updating the expected reference as inlet pressure, inlet temperature and gas composition change.
Measured data → Expected baseline → Deviation trend
The monitoring logic converts raw measurements into condition-consistent performance indicators that can be interpreted by engineers and maintenance teams.
What it enables
Performance-based monitoring for centrifugal compressors
CMap Monitoring turns compressor performance prediction into a continuous operational layer.
01
Objective performance baseline at actual operating conditions.
02
Early indication of degradation, fouling or abnormal behavior.
03
Support for predictive maintenance and inspection planning.
04
Traceable historical trends for diagnostics and reporting.
Continuous diagnostics
Reliable monitoring starts with reliable prediction.
CMap Monitoring extends CMap from engineering analysis to continuous performance supervision, supporting compressor reliability, efficiency and operational awareness.
