New Always-On vibration and temperature condition monitoring kit

The new FLIR SV87-KIT™ is claimed to be a low cost, easy-to-configure package  that can be installed on any surface that has wireless connectivity to a Wi-Fi network. This provides maintenance staff with the ability to track changes in vibration and heat in real time and (over time) provides operational insights to predict potentially serious problems before failure. Available with immediate effect the new kit includes four wireless SV87™ Vibration and Temperature remote sensors, along with a wireless FLIR GW65™ Gateway for 24/7 continuous monitoring of machine vibration and temperature data. The SV87-KIT is also expandable with options to specify additional SV87 Remote Sensors or GW65 Gateways.

FLIR says that the data can be transferred to any tablet, smartphone or computer via a Wi-Fi network, and that it allows the user to visualise trends and receive alerts via an app or email in the event of a threshold being exceeded. Configuration of the desired thresholds is straightforward, they can be set manually for customised applications or, alternatively, based on common ISO standards.
