Based on working principle and fault prone parts of reciprocating compressors as well as actual situation on site,a monitoring plan system overall architecture design was proposed and a measurement point configuration plan was devel-oped.Fault types that can achieve monitoring and accurate positioning were given,and the core analysis tool for fault diag-nosis of reciprocating compressors was described.The paper contains useful information for later stages of constructing networked real-time status monitoring,diagnosis and management platform.
