What is does our AIM software do?

AIM is easy-to-use predictive maintenance software for operators, reliability engineers, and maintenance managers, developed by the engineers of Analytical Solutions and Products.

Like AMADAS, our AIM software collects sensors data from your analytical instruments and centralizes control over your equipment.

AIM is developed to be a future proof high-tech direction for maintenance control, though still being a cost effective solution in comparison to other systems.

AIM yields high gains in efficiency, predictive maintenance savings, prevents unplanned downtime, and increased availability.

Are your analytical instruments giving you reliable, accurate and repeatable results?

You need to know the level of performance of your analyzer systems; are they giving you reliable, accurate and repeatable results? If not, operation of your analyzer systems could be compromised!

That is why ASaP has developed the Analysis Information Module (AIM). AIM is the only predictive maintenance software with support for all brands of process analyzers used in the oil and gas and (petro)chemical industries.

Our AIM software will bring you complete analyzer data overview, with clear dashboards, live tiles, and in-depth reports. Easily track your workflows, analytical instruments, their measurements, their associated equipment, sensors data, schedules, and documentation.

  • AIM monitors your analyzers performance.
  • AIM can predict the exact moment to replace your maintenance sensitive spare parts.
  • AIM software can validate your analytical equipment from a single location.
  • AIM comes pre-configured for your analytical equipment.
  • AIM supports virtually any number of devices.

How can the AIM predictive maintenance software algorithms help you and your maintenance team?

With key predictive maintenance algorithms and analyzer data acquisition system, AIM is able to provide operators, reliability engineers, and maintenance managers with detailed information and analyses on their analyzer systems so they can monitor and improve process control.

Through monitoring the performance of your analytical equipment, AIM software can predict the exact moment to replace your maintenance sensitive spare parts. You will spot potential problems from miles away and prevent unplanned downtime. By replacing spare parts on performance basis, rather than scheduled maintenance on time-based Intervals, you will make the most of your maintenance budget and see return on your investment.

The AIM predictive maintenance solution is designed to determine the condition of analytical equipment in order to estimate when maintenance should be planned and performed. This way promises cost effective savings over time-based preventive maintenance, because maintenance is performed only when necessary. It is regarded as condition-based maintenance carried out as suggested by estimations of the degradation state of analytical equipment, such as gas analyzers.

Together with your maintenance team you will make better informed decisions and improve your maintenance performance.

Which KPI’s can AIM predictive maintenance software make visible for you?

The AIM software monitors analyzer performance and provides a clear visualization of the data on Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) like:

  • Performance: accuracy and repeatability
  • Maintenance: corrective and preventive
  • Availability: actual and historical data
  • Validation: (manual/automatic) with statistical evaluation of results
  • Calibration: info on gases and consumption
  • Monitoring of equipment; ranging from simple transmitters to complex analyzers (GC’s)

What reports can I expect with AIM predictive maintenance software?

Our AIM software features a fully integrated report generator to automate generation of common reports like alarm, state machine, I-chart, and QAL3 reports. You will be able to make the best decision with your analyzer data acquisition system ready to show to anyone.

How is the AIM software architecture designed?

AIM is built on modern technology that allows de-central deployment. And with scalability in mind, AIM is designed so it can virtually support any number of devices. From a maintenance workshop to a complete production plant. It uses standard protocols to allow easy integration. The AIM software is developed with its own protocol stack and allows integration with common industry protocols such as Modbus TCP/IP, Modbus RTU, Analog and Discrete Signals and OPC.

AIM comes pre-configured for your analytical equipment and is easy to implement within your own IT-environment.

No infrastructure available and still want to implement a predictive maintenance software and data acquisition system? AIM is an independent stand-alone system, which can be integrated at any time!

What are the applications for predictive maintenance software?

The AIM software is designed for oil and gas and (petro)chemical industries. But since AIM’s design is based on common industry protocols and works with any analytical device regardless of brand or model, AIM’s applications for AIM are endless. These applications are just a few amongst many. Because of AIM growing number of users, these applications will be updated regularly.

Does AIM sofware comply to the international standards?

Yes. AIM complies to international standards. Amongst others the STM D-6299 standard. The ASTM D-6299 norm is a standard practice for applying statistical quality assurance and control charting techniques to evaluate analytical measurement system performance. AIM predictive maintenance software covers information for the design and operation of a program to monitor and control ongoing stability and precision and bias performance of selected analytical measurement systems using a collection of generally accepted statistical quality control (SQC) procedures and tools.

Does the predictive maintenance software AIM support your LNG samplers and vaporizers?

Yes. We have integrated full LNG sampler and vaporizer functionality within AIM predictive maintenance software. Operators can control the LNG sampler with one interface and have an overview of all information such as LNG vaporizer, LNG sampler, and gas analyzer performance. Our AIM software has been developed in-house by the ASaP engineering team and can be implemented with any brand or type of LNG sampler, LNG vaporizer, and gas analyzer available in any system, new or retrofit!
