    摘要: An abnormality diagnosis device includes: a data acquirer to acquire a current waveform and a driving frequency of an electric motor; a storage which stores a combination of a current value of the current waveform and the driving frequency at an identical time by the data acquirer; a data determiner to determine whether or not a current value of the current waveform and the driving frequency as a diagnosis target at an identical time by the data acquisition match the combination stored in the storage; an analyzer to perform frequency analysis for the current waveform determined to be matched by the data determiner, to extract sideband waves, and calculate a spectrum intensity of the sideband waves; and an abnormality diagnosis processor to make a diagnosis that abnormality has occurred, when the spectrum intensity of the sideband waves is equal to or greater than a threshold.

    摘要: Provided in this disclosure is a control system and method that monitors current in a spreader motor to accurately detect a mechanical overload condition. The invention distinguishes between a short duration high current transient spike caused by sparking of brushes in the DC motor, and a long duration continuous high current caused by a mechanical overload condition in the DC motor. The control system momentarily deactivates and reactivates the motor. If high current is no longer detected, the control system construes this as a transient spike and no fault condition is indicated. If high current persists, the control system construes this as an actual overload condition, and a fault condition is indicated to the operator. In this manner, a selected default current level can be established in the control system which can be selectively reestablished if conditions within the device change over time.

    摘要: This invention relates to a data communication system/method for use in a downhole application wherein electrical energy is supplied over a multiple-conductor power cable to a motor assembly of a downhole tool such as an electric submersible pump. A power leg coupling interfaces a surface controller of a downhole instrument to the conductors of the tool's power cable. Uplink communication of telemetry data occurs via current modulation generated by the downhole instrument and interpreted by a surface controller. Downlink communication of downhole instrument data occurs over a different communication scheme supported by the downhole and surface controllers. Downlink communication scheme provides a supply of power to the downhole instrument. Protection of downhole electronics and continuity of communication is ensured in the event of a ground fault on the power cable. Both downlink and uplink communication frequencies are adaptive based on frequencies and voltages present on the power cable.
