Wireless Condition Monitoring

Wireless condition monitoring enables you to remotely and automatically collect data critical to the health of your assets, no matter what industry you’re in.

Improve Asset Performance with Wireless Condition Monitoring

HID Condition Monitoring is a real-time monitoring platform to assess the health and performance of industrial equipment. Implementing an end-to-end condition monitoring solution enables a predictive maintenance strategy to improve inspections, maintenance, and operation decisions, reducing unplanned downtime and increasing productivity across the manufacturing plant, HVAC, elevators and other rotating equipment. Historically, monitoring more assets using legacy technology was cost prohibitive, making this technology a huge leap forward.

Machine Learning for Equipment Health

Equipment fails and when it does, it can be catastrophic for the factory resulting in lost production and lost revenue. Additional adverse effects are costs to operations, idle labor, work-in-progress scrap, machine repairs, and clean up. HID Condition Monitoring provides analytics, visualization and real-time alerts to enable a predictive maintenance strategy. The system learns the unique baseline of normal behavior of each asset equipped with an array of sensors and monitoring tools. During production, if vibration behavior deviates from the baseline for a period, an alert is generated notifying a change in operating or health status. The facility can implement remedial actions before equipment fails to reduce downtime, avoid lost capacity, and quickly respond to critical circumstances.

Condition Monitoring for Non-Manufacturing Applications

Industrial air conditioning system

HID Condition Monitoring is also used to monitor other types of capital equipment with rotating and reciprocating components such as elevators, escalators and HVAC equipment. The solution activates an alert when something needs attention.

Additionally, HID Condition Monitoring can monitor, collect and analyze data on food and beverage coolers and vending machines. Real-time data captures include cooler temperature, cooler motor health, door openings, and more. Enhanced visibility improves maintenance calls, improves cooler functionality and ensures everything is running optimally, resulting in maximized sales.

Efficient & Scalable IoT Condition Monitoring

IoT reaches almost every industry. HID shows you in this 50-minute webinar the ways you can get ahead of equipment failures, leveraging the power of condition monitoring for fault detection and predictive maintenance.

How It Works

how condition monitoring works

Monitor Key Equipment Health Metrics in Real Time

The HID Condition Monitoring beacon uses advanced edge processing to calculate equipment health metrics.  Every two minutes, the beacon samples vibration data at 25.6 kHz on all three axes, and then uses onboard signal processing to transform this data into key metrics that are used to determine machine health and status. These metrics target specific vibration frequency ranges that are present for various defect types that commonly occur in rotating and reciprocating equipment. The health metrics are then used in Bluzone cloud with machine learning technology to detect anomalies and generate alerts in real time.  Additionally, by using advanced edge processing on the beacon to calculate the health metrics, HID leverages high-fidelity, high-bandwidth vibration data while reducing network traffic and preserving battery life.

常见问题

1. How many condition monitoring beacons can connect to a gateway?

Since HID uses the Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) protocol, there is no fixed limit to the number of condition monitoring beacons that can be seen by a gateway (BluFi). However, in practice, we usually aim to have 20 or fewer beacons per gateway for condition monitoring.

2. What is the maximum distance between a condition monitoring beacon and a gateway?

In many industrial settings, up to 20 meters is common.  However, depending on the layout, obstructions, and RF interference, this distance could be greater or less than 20 meters.

3. How are condition monitoring beacons mounted to equipment?

The beacons should be mounted using approved epoxies (listed in our installation documentation that comes with the product).

4. Are condition monitoring beacons waterproof and/or dustproof?

The beacons have a rating of IP67.

5. Can condition monitoring beacons be installed in hazardous environments?

We have an intrinsically safe version of the Condition Monitoring beacon (BVCM45G2-A1Z1) that is designed for hazardous and explosive environments. See the datasheet for more details.

6. Can the gateways be installed in hazardous environments?

We work with third parties to build enclosures (custom, if needed) to suit various environments, including hazardous and outdoor.

7. What is the sampling rate of the accelerometer in a condition monitoring beacon?

With the standard configuration, the beacon will utilize a sampling rate of 25.6 kHz to collect data and then perform edge processing to reduce this to a set of metrics related to machine health.  Additionally, you may choose to pull several seconds of raw data at 25.6 kHz (on demand) from the beacon for further processing.

8. How many axes/directions does a condition monitoring beacon measure vibration on?

The beacon has a tri-axial accelerometer and collects data on all three axes (X, Y, Z) simultaneously for the edge-calculated health metrics.

9. How often does a condition monitoring beacon send data?

With the standard configuration, the edge-processed features are sent approximately every 2 minutes.

10. What is the battery life of a condition monitoring beacon?

With the standard configuration, the HID Condition Monitoring Beacon (BVCM45G2) with internal (non-replaceable) battery will typically last up to 3 years (this can vary depending on environment). The HID Condition Monitoring Beacon with External Battery Pack (BVCM45G2-EXTPOW) can last up to 5 years, and these batteries are replaceable.
