iQunet offering

Technology

Sensor sleep current is extremely low (<1µA)• Touching the batteries reduces the battery life

time with approx. 50% due to induced leakage current being higher than sensor consumption

Wireless transmission is ultra fast with low consumption• Lean but effective wireless iQunet protocol

increases payload/overhead ratio

Digitalisation of the sensor makes it very low power• Inside accelerometer made of MEMS Integrated

Circuits makes it possible to run the electronics on 2 standard CR2032 coin cells

Features

Range of the sensors• 10-50m depending on (*)

• sensor mounting• Machine density in the plant• Construction of the plant

• Can be extended 1x with Repeater node(s) (**)

Number of sensors in the range• Unlimited

Life time of the batteries in the wireless sensors• ±5 years (@1 complete 3-ax measurement/day + 100 x T°/day)

(*) Note1: 50m in ideal setting / 15 to 25m in average in industrial settings(**) Note2: with inherent reduced data bandwidth (slower wireless transfer rates)

• Advantages MEMS wireless battery operated sensors• Semi-continuous measurement – largely available (trend) data• Compressive sensing techniques

• Full spectrum (not only RMS)• Characteristic harmonic detection• Operating point clustering

• Lower TCO, smaller physical footprint, cheaper • Largely available cheap measurement points

• Faster installation• Low power / on batteries / no cables

• Disadvantages MEMS wireless battery operated sensors • Trade off between power, accuracy and number of datapoints• Less accurate (but many datapoints = Machine Learning ready)

--> available for many assets !

• Advantages Piezo-electric sensors• Larger measuring range, more

information in one measure• Proven analytical technique (experts)

• Disadvantage Piezo-electric sensor• Labour-intensive• Snapshot (portable equipment)• Very expensive online wired/wireless

equipment -->used with highly critical assets

“MEMS”-vibration monitoringThe classic way

12

• With the same available power less accurate , but more datapoints

• Interesting mechanical features of MEMS: Less sensitive ( up to 10.000g) 3-axial

• Small: combination with other features (T°, Wireless, Memory, …)

• Inexpensive electronics part: use of more MEMS sensors in one device

• Inexpensive computing power correlation via Machine learning possible

Comparison (performed by Siemens) between

High-end piezo-electric sensor and

iQunet wireless sensor

VS.

Case Bio Mass Centralplease note differences in graph scales

• iQunet sensor detects also the bearing errors (all “frequency peaks” related to bearing errors are available – yet with less resolution)

• iQunet resolution in lower frequencies could be increased by sampling at lower rates with high number of samples (setting in dashboard)

• The iQunet sensor is a perfect low cost fit for anomaly detection with machine learning techniques

Mount sensor withM3 bolt and

wire bus

Use Epoxy for

permanent mount

Keep antenna top free from obstacles

(8 cm around)

Setup & Installation


Sensor mounting: “plug&play”

Sensor mounting instructions

Equipment base (e.g. rotating equipment)

Drill Ø4mm and insert M3 wire bus

Hex Socket Cap Stainless Steel Plain Socket Screw, M3 x 16mm

Use epoxy adhesive for permanent mount (*)

Antenna top must be free from metal obstructions for best range (8 cm around the top in ALL directions)

(*) see install guide or online shop for recommended epoxy type

CASES

iQunet wireless battery-powered vibration sensors detect pump damage. With automatic measurements every hour, the increasing deviation compared to a recent pump was detected and followed up. Due to the iQunet sensors it was possible to replace the bad pump within planned downtime.

Use Case:Monitoring end of life of motor-pump combination


Conclusion
