Avoid unplanned downtime with this monitoring system

Almost all of this company’s pump series are now equipped with the i-ALERT 2 monitoring system as standard. Exceptions are made for individual designs, such as heated pumps, or if other monitoring systems are used at the user’s request. The i-ALERT 2 sensor mounted on the bearing bracket (photo) monitors the vibration of the pump and the temperature of the bearings. If the pump exceeds the preset limits in two consecutive measurements, the unit goes into alarm mode. The i-ALERT 2 sensor transmits sensor-related data stored in the device (such as vibration, temperature, runtime information and device statistics) via Bluetooth to a free app. — ITT Rheinhütte Pumpen GmbH, Wiesbaden, Germany
