Schaeffler has launched an improved version of its FAG Dtect X1 s online condition-monitoring system, which is suitable for the monitoring of rotating components and machines such as bearings, gearboxes, compressors, fans, pumps, rolling stands, paper mills and drives.
In the paper industry, FAG Dtect X1 s is suitable for monitoring complex machinery, including suction press rollers and pick-up rolls on paper machines.
The new individual modules — the monitoring unit and the multiplexer — are now integrated in a single, compact unit that is designed to offer flexibility for end users.
The system is protected to IP67 and can therefore be installed in harsh environments, in ambient temperatures from –20°C to 70°C.
Key specifications:
More compact than its predecessor
Offers increased functionality and flexibility
Combines all control modules into a single, compact housing
Measures 260 x 150 x 90mm
Enables easy installation in control cabinets
Integrated multiplexer enables the recording of signals from up to eight different sensors
Can save up to 16 separate monitoring tasks and execute these automatically
If a specified threshold value or alarm limit is exceeded, the system triggers an alarm
Vibration-monitoring data can be analysed directly on site at the central control station or retrieved via a TCP/IP communications link
Operators can make changes to system parameters remotely from anywhere in the world
All commonly used acceleration, speed and displacement sensors can be connected
Easy to retrofit to existing paper machines
Machine operators require no specific knowledge or skills
Integrated GSM modem enables direct communication between the user and the device
