New Echo® Wireless Vibration Monitoring

Introducing the Echo® Wireless vibration monitoring system from IMI SENSORS (PCB Piezotronics) now operating in frequency bands approved for the European market. The Echo® Wireless system allows you to wirelessly monitor critical assets, especially those in remote locations, with difficult access or hazardous areas.

The monitoring of this equipment is done with a system based on automatic alarms that allows several daily measurements, helping to identify problems earlier than traditional vibration routes.

As a wireless system working in the 868 MHz frequency range, it simplifies installation and reduces monitoring costs, reducing the need for cabling and increasing the possibility of increasing the number of monitored assets with fewer resources.

The system consists of a wireless gateway that allows connections up to 1.5 km away and up to 400 sensors. In addition to the Gateway, the system has a wireless vibration sensor and a junction box that allows sending vibration data from already installed accelerometers wirelessly.

Both the sensor and the junction box allow the vibration data to be sent wirelessly to the Gateway in encrypted form and both are available in an ATEX version for classified areas.

The monitoring software included in the system allows us to have automatic alarms in different values (RMS and peak speed, acceleration, TruePeak, Crest Factor...) in which the data are archived in a SQL database, visualize these alarms, sensor status trends and send alarms by e-mail. In addition, there is a Modbus server to connect the vibration system with the plant control systems.

In short, we present a system with a long wireless range widely tested in different industrial sectors and plants in different fields, and with functionalities that allow having our critical assets monitored wirelessly, reducing monitoring costs and downtime and increasing the availability and reliability of the assets.
