INSTRUMENTATION
OVERVIEW
IRT has significant experience in the installation of temporary and permanent monitoring systems for trains, bulk ore carriers, draglines, coal trucks, shovels, etc. Systems for measuring:
• Strain • Deflection • Acceleration (vibration) • Noise • Temperature form the backbone of the Institute’s instrumentation capability.
PERMANENT INSTALLATIONS
• Partially Dumped Ore Car Detector — in service for last 15 years at BHPB-IO on Car Dumper #3.
• Briquette Feed Bin weigh system — Installed at Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI) plant.
• Rail Weighbridge — in service at Brookfield Rail to continuously assess loading of iron ore traffic.
• Rail Temperature and Stress Free (SFT) Monitoring – Permanent site established for Rio Tinto in the Pilbara providing continuous feed of ambient and rail temperatures as well as rail SFT movements.
• Track Condition Monitoring – Over 80 Instrumented Ore Cars in service on iron ore railroads, providing rapid feedback on track condition
• BHPB-IO – Wagon alignment monitoring system
BENEFITS
• Prototyped instrumentation results in optimised final installation.
• Improved maintenance scheduling. • Improved production audit data. • Condition monitoring of wheel fleet. • Improved loading procedures. • Improved process control.
