Luxar

Windrock Luxar™ cloud-based monitoring system provides continuous, remote visibility into the health and performance of reciprocating compressors and engines at midstream and downstream facilities. By combining high-quality machinery data, automated diagnostics, and analytics, Luxar sensors helps operators identify developing issues earlier, reduce unplanned downtime, and optimize maintenance activities across their asset fleet.

Integrated with Windrock Enterprise™ asset optimization software, the Luxar solution delivers actionable insights, performance trends, and asset health data through an intuitive dashboard accessible from anywhere. The system enables maintenance and reliability teams to move beyond periodic inspections and make data-driven decisions that improve equipment reliability, operational efficiency, and overall asset performance.

Monitor what matters in your operations

Turn continuous data into confident decisions

Built for simple deployment and secure connectivity

• Peripheral Universal Connections (PUCs): Four modular PUCs continuously monitor critical equipment signals 24/7 and transmit data directly to the controller — scalable for engines and compressors.
• Centralized Controller: Acts as the system’s core processing unit, polling PUCs sequentially and securely forwarding operational data via WiFi for reliable, efficient collection.
• Secure Gateway Connectivity: Integrated cellular gateway provides a secure connection from field controllers to the cloud, enabling remote monitoring and system visibility from any phone, tablet, or desktop device.
• Comprehensive Sensing Coverage:
  
  • Engines: Power cylinder performance, valve train condition, turbo health, main bearing monitoring, and frame vibration analysis.
  • Compressors: Head-end and crank-end pressures, suction/discharge temperatures, crosshead vibration, real-time waveform capture, and vibration bias voltage monitoring.
  • Temperature Monitoring: Supports up to eight temperature points per PUC (maximum 32 per controller), ideal for valve-cap monitoring and additional critical assets.
• Seamless Ecosystem Integration: Fully compatible with 6400 analyzers, MD Optimo software, and Enterprise software for deeper diagnostics, analytics, and performance optimization.

1. Luxar Peripheral Universal Connections (PUCs) are mounted and capture temperature, vibration, and in-cylinder pressure data from critical machinery.
2. The controller aggregates sensor data and securely transmits it to the gateway.
3. The gateway uploads data to the cloud for continuous monitoring and analysis.
4. The Windrock software transforms the data into dashboards, KPIs, trends, and actionable alerts, enabling real-time asset health monitoring and proactive maintenance decisions.
