Alfa Laval Condition Monitoring: Predictive Maintenance for Optimized Operations
Alfa Laval condition monitoring systems use intelligent IoT technology to monitor the health of critical rotating equipment, such as pumps, ensuring real-time 24/7 visibility. By leveraging advanced sensors and analytics, these systems enable predictive maintenance, reducing the risk of sudden failures and optimizing plant productivity.
Key Benefits:
- Real-Time Insights: Monitor pump health remotely to identify issues before they escalate.
- Cost Savings: Eliminate unplanned downtime, reduce overtime and rush orders for spare parts, and extend pump lifetime.
- Targeted Maintenance: Focus attention on critical equipment using actionable diagnostics, servicing pumps only when required.
- Increased Efficiency: Maximize process throughput and allocate maintenance resources effectively.
With Alfa Laval condition monitoring systems, plant operators can predict, prioritize, and plan condition-based maintenance activities to prevent equipment failure, ensure production continuity, and reduce total cost of ownership. Designed for industries relying on rotating equipment, these systems deliver unmatched reliability and efficiency.
Alfa Laval CM
Maximize plant uptime while minimizing costs with the Alfa Laval CM, a wireless vibration monitoring system that tracks the operating condition of rotating equipment, such as pumps, mixers and agitators. Compact and easy to use, the CM condition monitor supports decision-making to protect valuable plant assets. A sensor measures vibration and alerts operators through a visible LED indicator on the monitor and any connected mobile device within range if preset thresholds are exceeded.

How do Alfa Laval condition monitoring systems work?
The Alfa Laval condition monitoring portfolio consists of:
- Alfa Laval CM, a wireless monitoring unit that collects triaxial vibration data, surface temperature, and run time of the pumps and transmits via Bluetooth to the CM Connect gateway.
- Alfa Laval CM Connect that transmits data to the cloud via 4G.
For complete visibility of pumps in a specific location, users access data and trend analyses using an intuitive web-based dashboard on PCs and mobile devices – anytime, anywhere. The dashboard displays pump health, battery status of the units, historical vibration data for FFT frequency analysis, current and total running hours, and pump information, such as serial number, model, and type.
