Machinery vibration monitoring is
networked
Monitoring system networks the vibration monitors and records diagnostic data, and displays graphically all the information, providing instant alarm information and maintenance instructions.
NetMonitor, the perfect complement to the efector octavis vibration monitor, is now available from sensor market leader ifm electronic NetMonitor not only networks the vibration monitors, but also records diagnostic data, and displays graphically all the information a user might need, providing instant alarm information and maintenance instructions

Sensor detects pump cavitation and stoppages
IFM Electronic's has developed a pump diagnostic pressure sensor that continuously monitors and detects cavitation, trapped air and blockages.
The efector octavis sensor detects imbalance, damage to rolling element bearings, alignment errors, cavitation and meshing at an early stage.
This allows the optimisation of vital plant availability from gears, to electric motors, ventilators, pumps and spindles and increases production efficiency.
NetMonitor centralises the informatin gathered.
Machine damage is detected as it arises.
Maintenance measures can be carried out efficiently when the plant condition requires.
NetMonitor can be set to automatically send out the instruction to maintenance personnel.
In addition to the alarm function of the efector octavis sensors, the diagnostic values can be transmitted to the netMonitor data logging software via Ethernet.
The display shows a collective alarm if any monitoring point shows danger levels, then the individual problem can readily be pinpointed and dealt with.
Infractions of the limit values can be signalled to personnel in charge via e-mail using the netMonitor message center.
Concrete instructions for maintenance can be stored.
Automatic print-out of the instructions can be set in netMonitor.
