Estimating the term…
The method serves for monitoring an energy conversion device such as for example a pump assembly, a compressor or likewise. The energy conversion device consists of several function units which are functionally linked to one another. Power-dependent variables of at least one function unit are automatically detected in temporal intervals and/or computed and compared to one another or values derived therefrom and/or to predefined values. A corresponding signal is produced in dependence of this comparison, via which signal, the efficiency reduction of a function unit or the complete device may be specified.

A method for monitoring an energy conversion device, which includes at least two function units which are functionally linked to one another, with which power-dependent variables of at least one function unit of the at least two function units are automatically detected and/or computed in temporal intervals, and are compared to one another or to values derived therefrom and/or to predefined values, and a corresponding signal is produced in dependence on the comparison.
