Wouldn’t it be great if your equipment could tell you when it needs maintenance or warn you of an upcoming failure before it happens? Since aging equipment and worn components are a leading cause of premature failure and unplanned downtime, having the right predictive maintenance solutions in place helps companies like yours detect and act upon potential equipment failures before they result in major expenses.

 

Why is “Predictive Maintenance” Different?

Traditional preventive maintenance methods take place at scheduled intervals and require skilled workers to complete time-consuming manual processes that increase overall costs. Other challenges include problems arising in-between inspection dates (which are often unaccounted for) and the premature replacement of equipment.

Predictive maintenance, on the other hand, is a proactive strategy that involves evaluating your equipment’s condition through continuous monitoring. The goal is to use real-time data to identify component failures early in order to reduce unplanned downtime and avoid costly repairs.

 

Predictive Maintenance Products from Omron

S8VK-X Power Supply 

This single-phase power supply detects abnormal DC load conditions and calculates remaining power supply life based on the power supply load conditions. Its user-friendly local display provides easy status visualization and can also be monitored remotely with the included PC monitoring software.

K6CM Motor Condition Monitor

The K6CM is the latest motor condition monitoring device with the ability to quantify the status of  three-phase induction motors. With built-in EtherNet/IP & Modbus TCP communication you can remotely monitor motor current, vibration & temperature, or insulation resistance depending on the model selected. The K6CM provides 24/7 monitoring to guard against motor failure by performing multiple checks and alerting users of abnormalities. This device allows the user to perform predictive maintenance, respond quicker to issues, and reduce operational costs.

K6PM Thermal Condition Monitor

The K6PM analyzes temperature deviation over time using thermal imaging sensors and detects abnormalities before they become serious. Its digital display and alarm bar allow operators of all experience levels to respond to issues.
