Explosion proof IoT module for pump systems (predictive maintenance)

E.D.&A. developed a battery/transmitter unit that is applied as a predictive maintenance sensor for pumps (in hazardous areas such as chemical plants or refineries). Via this ATEX certified module incl. housing, the vibrations, the sounds and the temperatures of the pumps are monitored and logged. This makes it possible, for example, to recognise early on that the bearings of the pumps need replacing and to schedule maintenance in time (predictive maintenance).

In view of the strict ATEX standards, we had to take account during development of very strict requirements in terms of heat generation (strongly limited currents, inductances, capacities, possible spark formation, etc.), materials used, type of housing, type of batteries, etc.

Upon delivery, we also provide a very detailed technical documentation package with the electronics.
