Project Overview
The use of RFID technology and wireless LAN for equipment and pipeline inspection, usually used in power, manufacturing equipment inspection, petrochemical pipeline inspection. In the factory area, a seamless wireless network is covered along the inspection route, and an RIFD tag is installed at each inspection monitoring point. The tag records the basic information of the inspection monitoring point. The patrol staff first reads the contents of the tag with the handset after each inspection point, checks the equipment and pipes, and transmits the inspection information to the management office through the wireless network. A patrol management system is set up in the background to realize the inspection of the patrol personnel's work quality through the system, improve the management level of the patrol equipment, increase the patrol efficiency, and provide insight into the patrol inspection work.

Industry demand
The inspection of oil refinery equipment and pipelines refers to the periodical inspections and inspections of equipment and pipelines by the equipment security inspection department to ensure the safety of oil transportation and refining. For a long time, the patrol work of the refinery has been using the “one-note system” work method. Inspectors inspect equipment and pipelines in accordance with the inspection route, and then select operational conditions on the form and return to the management office for statistical inspection. Due to factors such as poor dedication of the patrol staff and weather conditions, sometimes the patrol personnel are lazy and falsely report patrols, making the quality of safety patrols greatly compromised.
Application of RFID Technology in Equipment Inspection
system design
The equipment inspection system based on RFID technology mainly includes inspection dispatch management, inspection line management, inspection information download management, inspection information upload management, inspection information query management, and inspection information report management. The hardware equipment is mainly composed of RFID handheld terminals, RFID tags, and wireless access points. In the design of this system, it closely focuses on the core requirements of the industry and the key business processes of inspection operations, and closely combines the applicability of RFID technology to practical needs, such as the use of ultra-high frequency passive electronic for the selection of electronic tags. The corresponding reading distance of the tag is also larger, so that the electronic tag information can be accurately detected.
Application of RFID Technology in Equipment Inspection
Inspection business operation process
(1) Install RFID tags at the existing inspection and inspection sites. The tags are initialized to record the basic information of inspection inspection sites, such as inspection numbers and inspection locations;
(2) Establish an inspection management information system, manage the various businesses through the system, and internate the operation, management, statistics, and analysis of the inspection operations on the system;
(3) When there is a plan for inspection, the plan will be entered into the system, such as inspection personnel, inspection route, departure time, requirements, etc., and then the inspection task will be sent to the RFID handheld reader, and then the inspection personnel set off;
(4) The inspector starts the inspection according to the inspection task, and places the ThingMagic-RFID reader close to the inspection and inspection monitoring point at the detection point, which can automatically record the detection status of the inspection personnel;
(5) The inspection situation and results can be uploaded to the management information system in real time through the wireless LAN network, and can also be returned to the management center to upload the inspection data to the management information system;
(6) The management center can check the completion of the inspection plan through the management information system, and can query and print the corresponding inspection statistics information.
Application of RFID Technology in Equipment Inspection
System advantage
The inspection equipment system fully utilizes the physical advantages of RFID technology. It mainly utilizes the characteristics of UHF RFID that does not require contact and reading distance, and does not require manual intervention. This improves the inspection convenience of inspection personnel and greatly reduces inspections. The workload of the inspectors. Reading distance can achieve long-distance data collection and better remote inspection; RFID identification speed, reduce a lot of inspection time, improve efficiency, improve the equipment inspection management level; RFID technology can be appropriate It penetrates cloth, leather, and wood to read the material and is able to fully cope with the challenges of the harsh environment and maintain all-weather work.
What's important is that RFID technology brings real-time and accurate data. It allows managers to obtain insights from their data and translates this insight into best practices for business management, improving management and predictability, and promoting overall Increase efficiency and management.
