A machinery monitoring system is being set up at a nuclear power station in Mississippi. It will keep an eye on 300 process variables and 200 vibration signals in each of the two units. The system will help with monitoring, starting up and shutting down, watching over things, and diagnosing issues. The monitoring tasks will happen during the plant's design, construction, testing, and operation phases. The system will help prevent component failures that could affect the plant's availability.
