Case of Application
Smart Vibration Diagnosis and Monitoring System
Vacuum Pump
Laboratory Equipment - Vacuum Pump Life Span Forecast
The case is a professional oil quality experiment center that takes charge of the quality of various oil products. A variety of noble precision experiment instruments are available in the laboratory, including: Pyrolysis - Gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS), X-ray scattering system, specific surface area analyzer, all-purpose absorption analyzer, and high-resolution Orbitrap mass spectrometry, etc. These noble precision experiment instruments are often dysfunctional because of the failure of the vacuum pump, and their service or replacement of parts often requires a long wait to seriously impact the operations of the laboratory.
Comparison on all fronts shows that our: “Smart Vibration Diagnosis and Monitoring Solution”, with the smart vibration sensor placed in the vacuum pump of respective equipment and the Edge AI Host, is capable of effectively detecting abnormalities of the pump as soon as they appear and sending out alert messages so that it is possible to ask the Comparison on all fronts shows that our: “Smart Vibration Diagnosis and Monitoring Solution”, with the smart vibration sensor placed in the vacuum pump of respective equipment and the Edge AI Host, is capable of effectively detecting abnormalities of the pump as soon as they appear and sending out alert messages so that it is possible to ask the manufacturer to service or to make an appointment for a replacement of the pump early on, which will reduce the time involved in the discontinuation and servicing of the equipment and improve the use efficiency of equipment in the laboratory.
