Condition monitoring
Initial situation: unplanned downtimes and failures of machines and systems
Infrastructural equipment, such as pumps or motors, is crucial for the smooth operation of machines and systems. However, it is often unclear what condition this equipment is currently in, whether a failure is to be expected or maintenance will be necessary in the future. This important information is lost because the machinery is usually outdated and not networked with each other. Reliable monitoring of the equipment is not possible.
Intelligent retrofitting with LoRaWAN® sensors
In order to monitor the condition and performance of the infrastructural equipment, it is upgraded with new sensor technology and connected to LoRaWAN®. All data now collected will be sent to the
Element IoT – ZENNER’s IoT platform – and can also be accessed from more distant locations.
Predictive maintenance and alerting with LoRaWAN®
- Time and cost savings
- Increase in process efficiency
- Possibility of predictive maintenance and alerting
- LoRaWAN® offers high security and low energy consumption
With the monitoring of infrastructural equipment, potential failures and damage can be detected at an early stage, appropriate measures can be planned thus reducing operating and maintenance costs. In addition, the efficiency and performance of the equipment is secured and improved in the long term.
