A recent installation from our partners Mutiara Jayateknik Engineering monitoring a cooling tower at Intel Penang. Sensors, cables, and a VibraLink switchbox.

Lab and ocean applications for the H23 series hydrophones include calibration, Test & Measurement, military surveillance, underwater biological studies, ship noise studies, pump cavitation and machinery studies, and monitoring of underwater ordnance.

As the cornerstone of condition monitoring, vibration monitoring can detect a wide range of bearing faults to allow scheduled maintenance, prevent unplanned downtime, and avert catastrophic failures for production assets.

What is the True Cost of "Low Cost" Accelerometers? Accelerometers with lower mean time between failures (MTBF) values result in higher costs for permanently installed vibration sensor applications. By taking the MTBF and manufacturing quality into account when making an accelerometer purchase, you can achieve lower overall program costs. To give some idea of the relative cost differences due to various MTBF rates, we calculate the “lifetime cost” per accelerometer that accrues after the sensors are bought. We use an example installation of 300 accelerometers with a program life of 20 years to compare high-, medium-, and low-quality accelerometers based on the field-failure MTBF calculation. For each, we summarize the cumulative costs over twenty years. Assumptions ● Each time the total exposure of accelerometers reaches the MTBF, one accelerometer will fail. We will consider infant mortality as well. ● Each time an accelerometer fails, it requires one man-hour to isolate the failure, replace the accelerometer, and perform all the tasks necessary to return the unit for a replacement. ● All accelerometers are replaced for zero cost. This is equivalent to having accelerometers with a "lifetime warranty” against failures. The full case study is below and it can be downloaded at https://lnkd.in/gdU-Dwyc. 

H23 next-generation hydrophones are small, versatile, self-amplified, and shielded for a variety of underwater acoustic measurements.

Last week, at Wilcoxon's Grillin' & Chillin' event, employees enjoyed all the usual picnic sides - and meats perfectly grilled by our management team! We also had delicious soft-serve ice cream brought to us by The Sprinkled Cow. #funatwork #WeAreHiring

Free Webinar! - Bearing Precision Lubrication and CBM using Vibration Monitoring and Ultrasound Detection --- Wednesday, July 24 - 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT Under and over lubrication contributes to 40-70% of bearing failures. Precision lubrication can be achieved with ultrasound analysis and supported with vibration root cause analysis. Ultrasound monitoring can be used to hear and analyze the friction index of each bearing, indicate the precise amount of lubrication required, and extend the life of the bearing. While optimal bearing lubrication reduces friction, lubrication cannot entirely stop the aging process. As the bearing ages and normal fatigue occurs, vibration monitoring can be used to detect early signs of brinelling, corrosion, and developing faults. This Free Webinar will help participants maintain plant assets in optimal operating conditions, reduce operation and maintenance costs, avert untimely shutdowns, and extend the lifespan of bearings and other rotating parts on critical equipment. Presented by industry experts, Peter Eitnier (Wilcoxon Sensing Technologies) and Benjamin Fried (CTRL Systems). Learn More and REGISTER NOW at  https://lnkd.in/gx9ieBj9 #maintenance #reliability #predictivemaintenance #reliabilityengineering #sensors #vibrationanalysis #rotatingequipment #wilcoxon
