Vibration Sensors

PGSO Sync vibration sensors monitor the condition of rotating plant continuously, so a developing fault becomes visible weeks before it causes a failure.

Sensors mount magnetically to the asset and measure vibration and temperature. They connect over Bluetooth to a gateway fitted nearby, and the data passes to a cloud dashboard. Nothing is drilled, wired or taken offline to install them, which means monitoring can be added to plant that is already running in an occupied building.

Continuous measurement identifies bearing wear, shaft misalignment, cavitation in pumps, lubrication problems and rising running temperature. Each of these develops gradually, and each is a planned repair if caught early rather than an emergency callout and a replacement.

Typical applications include primary pumps, air handling units, chillers, fans and lift motor rooms, along with any asset a condition survey has already flagged as approaching the end of its life.

Lets discuss the possibilities

Wireless Vibration and Temperature Sensors

Implementing vibration analysis as a key component of predictive maintenance strategies delivers substantial advantages for industrial operations, particularly those reliant on rotating machinery such as pumps, motors, and other critical assets.

The key benefits include:

Reduction of Unplanned Downtime:

Vibration analysis facilitates early detection of mechanical issues—such as looseness, imbalance, or bearing faults—before they escalate into major failures. This predictive maintenance approach helps maintenance teams prevent unexpected shutdowns, minimising production losses, costly repairs, and operational disruptions.

Extended Asset Lifespan:

By identifying abnormal conditions at an early stage, the root causes can be addressed before they lead to significant damage. This proactive management reduces premature wear, extends the service life of equipment, and optimises the use of spare parts, ultimately lowering the frequency and cost of maintenance cycles.

Data-Driven Decision Making:

Vibration analysis serves as a robust technical foundation for maintenance decisions, using frequency spectra, trend graphs, and historical failure data. This evidence-based approach eliminates guesswork, supports the prioritisation of interventions, and guides investments in reliability and asset management.

Optimised Maintenance Windows:

Maintenance activities can be effectively scheduled based on the actual condition of equipment rather than fixed calendars. This alignment reduces Mean Time to Repair (MTTR), increases Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), and improves the allocation of technical resources across the plant.

Cost Reduction and Increased ROI:

Preventing severe failures and optimising maintenance interventions directly lowers operational costs. Vibration analysis also provides the data needed to justify investments in reliability, improving the overall return on investment for maintenance programmes.

In summary, incorporating vibration analysis in predictive maintenance transforms maintenance from a reactive to a proactive discipline, empowering organisations to make informed decisions, enhance operational efficiency, and safeguard business continuity.

Hours Run

Status and uptime of four booster pumps.

Monitor the hours run of each asset using vibration analysis. In industrial operations where you have two or more assets working on the same system, this approach helps to determine if usage is equal across the set. It reveals whether one asset is shouldering the majority of the workload, which increases its likelihood of requiring repairs or failing sooner than the others. This insight is critical for effective predictive maintenance.

In depth Graphs

3D plot of acceleration peaks across frequencies over time.

The above graph is known as a waterfall graph. It displays approximately 20 data readings from a single sensor over time, making it especially useful for monitoring predictive maintenance tasks, such as greasing, both before and after the work is done. This kind of analysis is vital in industrial operations and can be effectively supported by vibration analysis.
