Chemicals and petrochemicals

Nisthora for chemicals and petrochemicals.

Batch reactors and continuous units depend on pumps, compressors, agitators and heat exchangers staying healthy. Nisthora watches their readings, alerts on limits and unusual behaviour, and tells you which asset needs maintenance soon.

The challenge

What gets in the way.

Process limits

Temperature and pressure must stay inside safe ranges.

Rotating equipment

Pumps, compressors and agitators are the most common cause of unplanned stops.

Batch recipes

Each recipe behaves differently, so a fixed limit is not always enough.

On your shop floor

What Nisthora connects to and measures.

Machines

  • Batch reactors
  • Pumps
  • Compressors
  • Agitators and mixers
  • Heat exchangers
  • Dryers and centrifuges

Readings

  • Reactor temperature and pressure
  • Agitator speed and motor current
  • Pump flow and discharge pressure
  • Bearing temperature and vibration
  • Batch step and duration
  • Run / stop state

Typical stop reasons

  • Planned shutdown
  • Pump trip
  • Cleaning between batches
  • Waiting for raw material
  • Utility failure
  • Quality hold

These are common examples. Each plant names its own machines and lines, and sets up its own stop reasons, in the words its team uses.

Records

Batch history with process readings

Each batch can be linked to its reactor, shift, stops and the full history of its process readings.

A day with Nisthora

A transfer pump's motor current and bearing temperature both start rising. Anomaly detection flags it, and the maintenance forecast gives the engineer the days left and the reasons, before the pump seizes mid-batch.

Example for illustration.

How Nisthora helps

Built for plants like yours.

Live status of every asset

Running, stopped or offline, with its key readings, live on one screen.

Maintenance forecast

Which asset needs maintenance in the next 30 days, how many days are left, and why.

Anomaly detection

Flags readings that are not normal for that asset, even inside the limits.

Alerts

Limits on any reading, sent in-app, by email, SMS, push or webhook, with escalation.

Downtime analysis

Every stop with its reason and length, and a Pareto of the biggest causes.

Root cause and fishbone

Find why a problem keeps coming back, and prove the fix.

Energy

Power use per asset and per area.

Works with your controllers

OPC UA, Modbus, Siemens S7, EtherNet/IP, MQTT and HTTP.
