A wireless product sends complete maintenance information

| By Chemical Engineering

This company, in collaboration with SKF, has introduced OneWireless Equipment Health Monitoring (EHM), which will wirelessly transmit complete spectral information — including vibration amplitude and operating parameter information — from the field to the plant room. OneWireless EHM is a compact, eight-channel monitoring device that collects acceleration, velocity, temperature and bearing condition data and delivers them to process operators and maintenance personnel to alert them of equipment problems. The device is a cost-effective and efficient alternative to the manual inspections that many industrial facilities employ to monitor the health of rotating equipment, such as pumps, compressors and motors. — Honeywell Process Solutions, Phoenix, Arizona
