Introduction: Development of substation compressed air systems condition monitoring.

Objectives: This project will develop and trial a remote access condition based monitoring system that can be retro fitted to substation air systems.

The objective of this trial is to confirm the feasibility to take data wirelessly from National Grid compressors located at sites throughout the UK for display on the National Grid Condition Monitoring website called ‘SAM’ (Smart Asset Management). The members of the consortium (shown below) will all work together under the project coordination of Adaptive Wireless Solutions Limited.
