The operational challenge

Performance losses are hard to size and harder to explain

A clear diagnosis gives performance, operations, and maintenance the same basis for action.

Power outputExpectedActualFault 1Fault 2
  • How much power are you losing?

    Changing load and operating conditions make the performance gap hard to quantify.

  • Where is the loss coming from?

    Concurrent faults can affect the same measurements and obscure each other.

  • Where should your team act first?

    Teams need to see which faults have the greatest impact before planning action.

Why Metroscope

Connect plant priorities with the evidence to act

See where performance is lost

Locate affected systems and see how individual faults contribute to the overall performance gap.

Understand the fault and its impact

Locate the diagnosed fault in the process, compare measured and expected behavior, and review how symptoms developed to guide site checks.

How Diagnostics works

From plant measurements to a diagnosis

  • MeasuresSymptomsDiagnosisDigital TwinInferential EngineExpectedbehaviorFault matrix
    Key principles

    From plant data to a diagnosis

    Diagnostics combines sensor data with a thermodynamic Digital Twin of your process. Differences between measured and expected behavior form symptoms, which the inferential engine uses to identify the most likely faults and quantify their impact on power output.

  • TPTPPQPT
    Digital Twin

    A thermodynamic model of your process

    Our modeling team builds a numerical replica of your process. The Digital Twin simulates how the process behaves and how faults change sensor readings and power output.

  • FaultsSymptomsDiagnosis = P(faults | symptoms)
    Inferential Engine

    From symptoms to the most likely faults

    The inferential engine uses a probabilistic approach to interpret the observed symptoms. It identifies the most likely combination of simultaneous faults, estimates each fault’s magnitude, and quantifies its impact on power output.

Testimony and use case

Diagnostics on operating plants

“Metroscope clearly identified a moisture separator reheater (MSR) tube rupture and quantified its impact, helping the Axpo team act quickly.”
