- Are you optimising your plant's availability and performance levels?
- Are you undertaking predictive and proactive maintenance of your plant and equipment?
- Do you know when your assets need replacing?
What does PearlStreet do?
- As Australia's largest integrated condition monitoring service provider, with over 30 years of experience, we deliver integrated condition monitoring using the 'right' mix of technology, aimed at understanding the way specific component failures are occurring and their impact on your operation. Our approach is based on ISO 17359-2003.
- We help you develop integrated condition monitoring plans and provide staff training, relief assistance and auditing.
- We also perform rotating equipment acceptance testing, on-site commissioning and alignment and field balancing.
Vibration Monitoring
Most components, stationary or rotating, move about a reference point. Like a doctor measuring your heartbeat, PearlStreet is able to measure and analyse vibrations to accurately diagnose machinery and structural conditions.
Vibration analysis will diagnose developing or pre-existing conditions such as:
- Machinery unbalance
- Misalignment
- Looseness
- Bearing defects
- Gearing defects
- Lubrication problems
- Structural vibration
- Motor defects
- Environmental and construction/demolition vibration impact

Thermography
All objects emit electro magnetic energy. PearlStreet uses thermography to accurately measure the amount of electro magnetic energy allowing us to identify thermal variations normally not visible to the naked eye. Heat is indicative of failing components.
Applications include:
- Electrical equipment - poor connections or contacts, overloading, unbalanced loads.
- Boilers/steam systems - refractory/insulation breakdown
- Process equipment - location of solid, liquid and gas levels in tanks and vessels, scale build-up and blockages in pipelines, defective valves, hot/cold air leaks.
- Mechanical equipment - conveying systems, bearings, and seals, drive belts, drive trains, turbo equipment, coupling problems, open gear integrity, crushers, screens and pumps.

Oil & Wear Debris Analysis
PearlStreet analyses oil samples using spectrometric analysis with ferrographic and other techniques. When used with other condition monitoring techniques, the results can very accurately determine failure modes.
Non Destructive Testing (NDT)
A vital part of any integrated condition monitoring program is NDT to detect cracks, leaks, corrosion, etc. PearlStreet is Australia's leading NDT provider.
What can you expect from us?
- Measurable operational benefits
- Comprehensive range of technology
- Fully integrated approach that forms part of your overall asset management strategy
- National coverage
