USING A WIRELESS SENSOR NODE TO MEASURE THE ACCELERATION OF THE SWING ROCKING MACHINE NODES

Abstract

Technical diagnosis of the drive of well rod pump units (WRPU) remains an urgent task, despite the significant amount of research in this field. One of the areas of diagnosis is the measurement and control of the angular velocity of the rocking machine elements, which requires the provision of synchronous registration and control of acceleration signals at many points of the control object. The authors proposed to implement such a system based on the wireless sensor module Steval-MKSBOX1V1 of STMicroelectronics. The results of the experimental approbation of the use of the specified module showed the effectiveness of its use for solving diagnostic tasks, since the module contains a significant set of sensors in combination with a unit for processing, storing and transmitting information via a wireless Bluetooth interface. An additional advantage of using the selected measuring module is the possibility of remote reprogramming of the module's software to perform the tasks of controlling the kinematic parameters of the installation in the process of conducting research directly at the technological facility. The use of three coordinate accelerometers as part of the measuring module allows to significantly increase the reliability of control in the diagnostic process.
