Predictive maintenance device for electric motors.
- Connected to the IOT
- Easy to install and start up
- Parameter monitoring and failure prediction
More than just a sensor TMAS Smart Motor Sensor (TMSMS) monitors the condition of your electric motors by combining best-in-class sensing technologies with leading-edge data analysis. TMASMS detects anomalies and defects in equipment, enabling you to forecast maintenance cycles and avoid unplanned downtime.
TMASMS covers the most critical diagnostics, translating data into actionable insights. The Smart Motor Sensor allows for 24/7 condition-based monitoring of all your low voltage electric motors. It presents information in a clear way, telling you both what the problem is and how to fix it.
Mobile Application
The TMASMS app allows easy setup of your Smart Motor Sensors, visibility on deployment data, as well as in-app notifications and alerts on critical events.
Dashboard
Get a complete overview of your machine health diagnosis and fault detection with detailed information and visualization of each motor's status.
Powerful Motor Smart Sensor
Monitoring - The monitored data is sent via Wi-Fi to the TMASMS operating system, which is an expert in predicting breakdowns.
Software - It analyzes the information, detects faults, and diagnoses, and prescribes appropriate maintenance actions.
Application - Through the TMASMS Motor Sensor App you can access the operation and status of the motor in real-time.
Sensor - Detects parameters and indicators such as temperature, vibrations, and speed, essential for the operation of the motor.
How it works
1. Set up - Configure TMASMS Sensor using the iOS or Android app. Deploy the smart motor sensor within minutes, even while your motor is still running.
2. Learn - Once the sensor is set up on the motor and is commissioned, the learning process has started. Leave sensor running during normal operation.
3. Receive alerts - View your alert in the web dashboard or the mobile app. This allows you to prevent any electrical motor failures.
Benefits
TMASMS optimizes your production environment and reduces breakdowns using robust condition-based monitoring hardware and software. Realize benefits such as lowering asset maintenance costs, extending equipment life, and increasing uptime.
Real-time monitoring
Monitor your equipment more frequently to know when mechanical and electrical failures start to occur and how these issues impact your production process.
Diagnose and take action
A unique model is created for each motor to deliver optimized diagnostics that align with the process. The smart motor sensor provides the information you can use to not only diagnose the problem but know the severity so maintenance teams can take action
Optimize your business
By continuously monitoring your motor performance and health, you will have better visibility into maintenance and spare parts need to know what to order and when to order, reducing inventory costs.
Failure Detection
TMAS Smart Motor Sensor (TMASMS) is the most accurate solution on the market to sense and interpret your machine data. This is why we define ourselves as a sensing interpretation world leader. The SMS can detect the following failures:
- Power System – Asymetry in motor currents
- Stator Winding – Stator resistance variation
- Rotor - Rotor resistance variation
- Motor Shaft/Balance - Gravity center displacement
- Alignment - Motor/load misaligned
- Cooling System - Motor cooling system problem
- Eccentricity - Stator/rotor concentricity issue
- Bearing – Failures/defects in bearing
- Soft/Loose Foot – Fixing system problems
Technical Information
