In asset-intensive industries, the focus is shifting from the traditional reactive, run-to-failure model to the predictive and proactive, life-cycle costing approach. The InSite™ Predictive Maintenance System is a fully integrated machinery monitoring solution that can lower maintenance costs and increase profitability.
Why choose InCheck InSite™? Developed by leading industry engineers, InCheck InSite™ delivers unparalleled accuracy in analysis and actionable, easy-to-understand data in a completely integrated and centralized solution. InCheck's unique online subscription-based model makes InSite™ available to even small operators and eliminates worries associated with long-term maintenance.
InCheck InSite™ is currently completing the latest stages of a successful private beta testing and will be available to select clients in Q2 of 2008. To be considered for our initial client roster, please please contact InCheck Technologies.
InCheck InSite™ is a modular integrated Condition Monitoring System best suited for monitoring of rotating equipment such as pumps, motors, etc. System modules are network enabled, providing easy integration, low installation costs, easy remote configuration, secure remote access, and efficient alarm distribution.
The concept of Modular Integrated Monitoring is quickly gaining popularity because of its ease of implementation and lower installed costs than in traditional systems. The essence of it is that data acquisition modules are installed at each machine or a major machine component. All modules are connected to a network and can be accessed from any computer having access to that network. Here are the benefits of this approach.
- Modules installed at Machine Level - compact, rugged data acquisition modules are installed at machines to be monitored. Each module contains all necessary inputs and processing power to monitor a machine, a machine group, or a component it is assigned to. Each machine becomes a node on the network.
- Easy Configuration - any system, whether it has a single machine or multiple groups of machines can be accessed and configured with a standard web browser through a secure connection, providing a single point access for the whole system. The system can be accessed from any network enabled device with a web browser, including a PDA with wireless network access.
- Low Installation Costs - there is no need to run individual sensor wires to a control room. They are all replaced with one standard network connection, either wired or wireless. For long distances a fiber optic cable could be installed with converters at each end. All network components are non-proprietary and are available from many vendors.
- Flexible Hardware Configuration - each module could be configured with a different number of sensors, and different types of sensors and data can be combined in the same module. Typical measurements of vibration, temperature, rotating speed, pressure, and other parameters will not require installation of different modules. This optimizes cost per channel and makes it lower than in traditional systems.
- Alarm Delivery - any number of continuously monitored parameters can be set as alarm triggers, including user selectable spectrum bands. Alarms are delivered over the network to the user screen with such options as phone, pager, fax, and SMS delivery. Optionally, alarm output can be hard wired through a relay to provide network independent alarming or machine shut down functions.
- Around the Clock Monitoring - machines are being continuously monitored with data available immediately and securely accessible from anywhere in the world. No additional hardware of software is required for monitoring, however data can be transferred to an external program for further analysis.
- Advanced Data Processing - a combination of real time and historical data analysis tools provides unparalleled diagnostic and prognostic capabilities. Intuitive interface and highly visible virtual gauges and dynamic charts aid in the process. Vibration analysis tools include FFT spectrum, averaged values, and available high frequency enveloping for bearing condition monitoring.
