productVibration monitoring
With its robust design, stainless steel housing, IP69K rating and maximum temperature of 125°C the VTV122 vibration transmitter from ifm electronic is suitable for use in harsh environments on rotating machinery with speeds in excess of 600rpm.
productConstant monitoring of electro/mechanical enclosures
Infrared imaging does a great job of detecting thermal anomalies caused by conditions such as a loose connections, overhead circuits and unbalanced loads. It does, however, only provide a snapshot of the faults on the day of inspection. A new product from IRISS offers a solution.
productHigh return on investment
The TKTI 21 and TKTI 31 thermal cameras from SKF can be used in multiple applications to spot the unusual heat patterns that indicate machine problems, enabling prompt preventative maintenance to reduce production losses due to unplanned downtime.
