Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) methodology focuses on maintaining safe and reliable operating conditions within industrial practices which is of crucial importance for the profitability of technologies. In this work, the development of an FDI algorithm based on the use of dynamic principal component analysis (DPCA) and the Fré:chet distance &delta:dF metric is explored. The three-tank benchmark problem is studied and utilized to demonstrate the performance of the FDI method for six fault types. A DPCA transformation for the system was established, and fault detection was conducted based on the Q statistic. Fault isolation is also of critical importance for proper intervention to mitigate fault effects. To identify the type of detected faults, the fault responses within the PC subspace were analyzed using the &delta:dF metric. The use of the Fré:chet distance metric for the isolation of faults combined with DPCA for feature extraction is a novel technique to the best of the authors&rsquo: knowledge that provides a robust computational tool with low computational cost for FDI purposes that fits well into the Industry 4.0 framework.The robustness and sensitivity of the method was validated for a wide variety of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions, with findings indicating a possible average false and missed alarm rate of 0.1 and a macro-averaged F-score above 0.8 in all cases.
