New i-ALERT3 wireless sensor

ITT has launched a new generation for its i-ALERT total machine health monitoring ecosystem. The i-ALERT3 sensor is designed to monitor and log the vibration and temperature of any rotating machine more quickly, accurately, and cost-efficiently. It identifies and diagnoses mechanical and electrical failures in pumps, motors, and other industrial machines before they occur by using a wider vibration frequency range.

The sensor upgrades this condition-based monitoring solution with automated machine health diagnostics. It includes a field-replaceable battery. Other features include wireless software updates that add features, a magnetic flux sensor that includes electrical health analysis capabilities for motors, accurate run speed and load trending, and faster wireless data speeds using the Bluetooth to reduce data download times with the mobile app.
