Equipment failure at a water treatment plant often leads to big costs, not to mention stress on the operations staff.Nidec Motor’s FORECYTE stand-alone remote monitoring platform takes that stress off, as battery-powered wireless sensors are used to measure equipment vibration and temperature. This allows operators to transition from reactive/preventive maintenance over to predictive maintenance since it predicts when equipment failure might be imminent, allowing operators to use and maintain their equipment more effectively.The FORECYTE device attaches to equipment magnetically; collects continuous, real-time data; and enables operators to visualize deteriorating equipment health. The data is sent wirelessly from the sensor to
