| 20120022912 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SUPERVISING INTEGRATED TRIP MARGIN OF FACILITIES IN INDUSTRIAL PLANT - Disclosed is a method and an apparatus for supervising the integrated trip margin of an industrial plant facility. The apparatus includes a measurement operation value collection means for collecting a measurement operation value of a facility having a trip setting value inside the industrial plant; a trip margin calculation means for receiving the measurement operation value from the measurement operation value collection means and calculating a trip margin; and a display means for displaying a trip margin having a smallest value among trip margins of respective groups on a screen when there is a plurality of groups of objects of interest, the trip margin of which is to be supervised. When supervising the trip margin of a facility within a plant, which has a trip setting value, information regarding a trip-related signal having the highest possibility of trip occurrence and the movement of the overall trip-related signals are grouped and displayed on the screen so that relevant people can supervise them more easily. As a result, any abnormal condition of facilities is detected as early as possible. This decreases the occurrence of trip, and increases the operating rate of the plant. | 01-26-2012 |
