1. A monitoring system for a pump, the system comprising:
an industrial system comprising the pump;
a data acquisition circuit structured to interpret a plurality of detection values, each of the plurality of detection values corresponding to at least one of a plurality of input sensors operationally coupled to the pump and communicatively coupled to the data acquisition circuit;
a signal evaluation circuit comprising:
a timer circuit structured to generate at least one timing signal; and
a phase detection circuit structured to determine a relative phase difference between at least one of the plurality of detection values and at least one of the at least one timing signal from the timer circuit; and
a response circuit structured to perform at least one operation in response to the relative phase difference, wherein the at least one operation comprises:
selecting at least one of the plurality of detection values, wherein the selecting is based on the relative phase difference;
using the selected at least one of the plurality of detection values for subsequent operations of the signal evaluation circuit to determine the relative phase difference; and
refraining from using at least one of the plurality of detection values that were not selected for subsequent operations of the signal evaluation circuit to determine the relative phase difference.
