Method for sensor maintenance of redundant sensor loops
First Claim
1. A system for performing sensor maintenance comprising:
- at least two sensors to collect one or more data points;
one or more non-transitory storage mediums; and
a processor;
wherein the at least two sensors are redundant sensors;
wherein one of the one or more non-transitory storage mediums receives the one or more data points;
wherein one of the one or more non-transitory storage mediums comprises one or more instructions for performing two or more statistical calculations; and
wherein the processor carries out the instructions for performing two or more statistical calculations on the one or more data points from the at least two sensors to determine if one of the at least two sensors is faulty.

Abstract
A system for performing sensor maintenance, including redundant sensors to collect one or more data points; one or more non-transitory storage mediums; a processor; and an output device; wherein one of the non-transitory storage mediums receives the one or more data points; wherein one of the non-transitory storage mediums includes one or more instructions for performing two or more statistical calculations; and wherein the processor carries out the instructions. The method for using the system includes: the non-transitory storage medium receiving one or more data points from the redundant sensors; the processor performing the statistical calculations on the data points to generate one or more processed data points and comparing the processed data points to a threshold value; and the non-transitory storage medium creating an alert when the processed data points exceed a threshold value for a period of time; and displaying the alert on the output device.
