SKF Enlight Collect IMx-1
Automated machine monitoring for reliable rotation
SKF Enlight Collect IMx-1 is a scalable and easy to set up mesh sensor network for data collection, available on a fee and performance based contracts.
SKF Enlight Collect IMx-1 system consist of an autonomous battery powered wireless vibration and temperature sensor, a line powered communication and network manager gateway, an host software for data trending visualization and analysis and a mobile phone app for sensor and gateway commissioning. The sensor is a data-collector and radio combined into one compact battery operated device. It measures and processes vibration and temperature for detection of common issues with rotating equipment.
SKF Enlight Collect IMx-1 can detect and process common issues like:
- Unbalance
- Misalignment
- Temperatures
- Looseness
- Electrically induced vibration
- Early stage damage to bearings and gear
Features
- Overall level and dynamic vibration data
- Broadband acceleration and velocity measurements
- SKF Acceleration Enveloping for early detection of defects in bearings and gears, and other impact type phenomena
- Temperature measurement
- Configurable data acquisition and processing
- Periodic measurements
- Mesh network communication
- 4-year typical sensor battery lifetime (configuration dependent)
- Rugged, compact design
- Gateway is powered from an industrial, wide range, 24 V DC or PoE
- Interfaces to wireless sensors (such as IMx-1), SKF App and software
Benefits
- Replacement of manual machinery health data collection and/or widening monitoring coverage
- Increase of the frequency of monitoring from months and weeks to days and hours
- Makes automated data collection easier and more affordable
- Data from machines in inaccessible locations or measurement points behind guarding
- Quick and scalable deployment
- Allows reduction of unplanned downtime by identifying and resolving problems before they result in costly machine failure
