Condition monitoring

Condition monitoring systems

Condition monitoring is a proactive maintenance strategy that involves continuously monitoring equipment and systems for potential faults or deviations from normal operating conditions. Condition monitoring continuously tracks and analyzes equipment parameters to detect early signs of wear, malfunction, or deterioration in machinery

A condItion monitoring system uses sensors and data analysis techniques to detect signs of wear, damage, or impending failures.Condition monitoring systems track and assess equipment performance in real-time to identify issues before they happen.

condition monitoring systems are used for condition-based maintenance of machines and installations. They help to detect machine damage in good time and prevent costly consequential damage.
The ifm product range comprises systems for monitoring vibration, oil quality, compressed air and water consumption.

Vibration sensors detect damage to rolling element bearings and gears or unbalance in drives and rotating machine parts. Systems for oil quality monitoring assist in the early detection of water and abrasion particles in hydraulic liquids and lubricants to prevent operational disturbances or damage to hydraulic power units, pumps, valves, cylinders and machines.
