Vibration levels — only a click away

09 June, 2007

Vibrations levels in plant can be monitored using a web-browser by Monitran’s VI-sage — which can also send text and e-mail messages if vibration levels become excessive.

A new combined hardware and web-based approach to monitoring vibration data remotely has been developed by Monitran, which designs and makes vibration sensors. Called VI-sage, it can be used as part of a company’s asset-management and predictive-maintenance routines. VI-sage can also use SMS text messaging and e-mail to notify users if pre-defined vibration levels are reached. The VI-sage hardware uses technologies developed by t-mac and is available with eight input channels for sensors and four outputs or 26 input channels and 16 outputs. Users can use a web browser from any PC with Internet access to check near real-time data, view historical data and control the outputs of VI-sage. Monitran offers a free site survey for potential installations.
