Alfa Laval CM Connect
The Alfa Laval CM Connect combines a vibration monitoring system with a cloud-based gateway. By periodically measuring tri-axial vibration and internal temperature of rotating equipment, then transferring the data to the cloud, equipment can be monitored and data analyzed. This information can be accessed remotely for record keeping and troubleshooting. The CM Connect can be used as a gateway for up to 10 Alfa Laval Condition Monitors within Bluetooth range. Current running status can be compared to predetermined equipment baselines and can automatically trigger email or SMS text alerts if levels are exceeded. Reduce unplanned downtime and plan preventative maintenance according to realtime equipment condition data. Constant monitoring means constant support for your plant.
Alfa Laval is a leading global supplier of products and solutions within the key technology areas of heat transfer, separation, and fluid handling.
Working Principle
The CM Connect can act as pump monitoring device transmitting data to the cloud using a 4G LTE connection. The device begins collecting information when vibration is detected. It can also act as a gateway, linking up to 10 CM devices within Bluetooth range sending data to cloud connected devices. This data is processed through a sophisticated AI engine to help determine potential issues the pump is facing. This gives your team easy access to trends and analytics to make informed preventative maintenance decisions. Cloud access requires an annual Connected Services subscription.
