SKF offers next-generation condition monitoring

By Steven Bushong | June 11, 2013

imx_smallNext-generation SKF Multilog IMx on-line monitoring systems equip users with a 24/7 monitoring system, providing timely simultaneous measurements of operating parameters to improve machine reliability, availability and performance. All IMx systems detect faults early, integrate automatic recognition to correct existing or impending conditions, and contribute to condition-based maintenance program objectives.

This next-generation IMx technology is an opportunity to convert and upgrade outdated systems and interface with compatible SKF @ptitude Analyst and Observer software to realize a comprehensive approach to condition monitoring. IMx systems include units for extremely tough industrial environments and models designed specifically for turbo machinery, wind turbine, vehicle, or railway applications, as well as portable versions ideally suited for temporary installations and troubleshooting.

Depending on model, SKF Multilog IMx units incorporate 16, 32, or 64 analog signal inputs configurable for a variety of sensors to ascertain acceleration, velocity, and displacement, among other parameters, such as acceleration enveloping. Individual warning and alarm levels controlled by machine speed or load can be set for each measurement point and built-in auto-diagnosis can check all sensors, cabling, and electronics for any faults, signal interruption, shorts, or power failure and then automatically alert when problems are found.

IMx systems can run on an existing LAN or WAN and network with computers, printers, and servers, or over the Internet.
