Artesis MCM (Online, continuous equipment condition monitoring)
Artesis Motor Condition Monitor (MCM) is a revolutionary new system for condition-based maintenance of equipment. Using a “model-based fault detection” technique, MCM can detect faults in both the driver and the equipment itself. Once installed, it creates a mathematical reference model of the system and then it can detect abnormalities, generate warnings, alarms or even trigger automated work orders.
Installation is a snap – usually less than an hour, the software is easy to install and then you are up and running. This is an ideal solution for remote operating equipment like pumps in deep wells or compressors in unmanned stations. It is inexpensive and easily pays for itself within the first year.
This article describes it more fully and here is a case study. We are Artesis distributors here in North America. For more information please contact us.
