Abstract The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) cryogenic infrastructure is composed of many equipment, among them there are the cryogenic valves widely used in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) cryogenic facility. At present time, diagnostic solutions that can be integrated into the process control systems, capable to identify leak failures in valves bellows, are not available. The authors goal has been the development of a system that allows the detection of helium leaking valves during normal operation using available data extracted from the control system. The design constraints has driven the development towards a solution integrated in the monitoring systems in use, not requiring manual interventions. The methodology presented in this article is based on the extraction of distinctive features (analyzing the data in time and frequency domain) which are exploited in the next phase of machine learning. The aim is to identify a list of candidate valves with a high probability of helium leakage. The proposed methodology, which is at very early stage now, with the evolution of the data set and the iterative approach is aiming toward a cryogenic valves targeted maintenance.
