What is a Vibration Monitoring System?
A vibration monitoring system is a set of tools used to measure one or more parameters to identify machine health changes. Monitoring these parameters helps identifying early faults like imbalance, bearing faults, looseness, misalignment, and others. New Vibration Monitoring Systems using wireless transmission and long-life batteries are now replacing the industrial wired accelerometers all over the world.
Introducing our Vibration Monitoring System | Phantom™
Phantom™ is a Wireless Vibration Monitoring System that integrates other parameters such as temperature, current, speed, and general purpose values such as pressure, flow, and tank level into a single diagnosis system. Additionally, our sensors have an exceptional battery life of up to 100,000 measurements, and they are very easy to install. Equally important, Phantom™ can send data to a local database or to our cloud-based system, EI-Analytic™. At any moment, you can track your machinery condition using any device such as a smartphone, computer, or a tablet.
Why is Vibration Monitoring Important?
Phantom™ Vibration Monitoring Systems will help you to predict machine failures and save huge costs due to unscheduled production down times. For example, the following list is the most common failures that can be identified with our condition monitoring system:
- Bearing Failure Stage I, II, III, and IV
- Imbalance
- Shaft and Bearing Wear
- Mechanical Looseness
- Misalignment
- Electrical noise
- Resonance
- Among others…
Vibration Monitoring System Easy to Install
Wireless Technology in Vibration Monitoring has been developed in response to unmet needs of simplicity, for installation as well as industrial cabling requirements. With this in mind, our wireless sensors are very easy to install.
- Adhere the base to your machine
- Screw Phantom Wireless Sensor to the base
- Configure the software. It is as easy as that!
Finally, the connection of the sensors to the Gateway will be done automatically and securely without intervention.
Wireless Vibration Monitoring System
Also, our vibration monitoring system uses ultra-low power BLE 5.0 technology. Therefore, our wireless sensors can achieve up to 100,000 measurements without the need to change the battery.
Phantom™ technology is the most reliable online wireless machine health monitoring system on the market, providing distance ranges of up to 100 meters in line-of-sight. One of our clients even stated: “Phantom is the magic unicorn system we’ve been looking for.”
Convenience
Sometimes it is just too difficult to place sensors and wires all the way from a machine to a control room. Wireless sensors can be placed anywhere within the range.
Low Cost
If you have a PDA or a cellular phone, you easily understand why going wireless is much more cost-effective than wires. Cabling long distances can be quite expensive compared to wireless sensors.
Accessibility
Certain places on machines are simply not accessible with wires. Wireless Sensors might be a solution for that.
Security
The signal from the Phantom sensors is encrypted, which ensures your information reliability and data security.
Modbus Universal Communication
Phantom™ Wireless Sensors now include Modbus TCP/IP which is a widely known and used universal communication protocol for industrial control applications. Thus, making them compatible with any PLC, Scada system or any other Modbus TCP/IP communicating software. Applications:
- Scada systems for control automation
- PLC for machinery control and protection
- ERP software such as SAP
- Integration with self-designed applications with free APIs
- Connecting wireless sensors
