Abstract
The present invention concerns a method and system for monitoring electrolyzer performances and for diagnosing and predictive identification of faults and events that could affect the manufacturing processes that uses electrolyzers. The system has a plurality of acquisition and transmission units, each of the acquisition and transmission units measuring a plurality of variables related to a respective electrolyzer and for transmitting these variables; a database and data management unit for recording the variables transmitted by each of the acquisition and transmission units; a monitoring unit for monitoring the variables; and an intelligent data analysis and fault diagnosis unit for analyzing the variables and diagnosing events. All of the units are interconnected through a communication unit.
