The DATAEAGLE Fieldbus Condition Monitoring uses a small industrial Bluetooth multi-sensor (accelerometer, gyroscope, temperature, humidity, pressure, light, acoustic, magnetometer – all in one), combined with an IoT-Gateway (the DATAEAGLE 2730) to provide sensor data to Fieldbus applications. The sensors can be connected to expensive pumps and motors to provide monitoring and predictive failure. Up to eight (8) sensors can be used with a single gateway.
The system supports the following fieldbuses: PROFIBUS, PROFINET, CAN/CANopen, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, Modbus TCP, Powerlink, Sercos and VARAN. A ready-to-use project is available to program the gateway as device in the PLC and gather the desired sensor values.
Each fieldbus version has a specific order code. The condition monitoring system is sold as a complete package; all the necessary components are included except for an antenna. Contact sales to select the correct antenna for your application.
The hardware installation is simple and can be completed in less than an hour. Simply mount the wireless sensor(s) on the desired device, for example a pump, find a source of power for the sensor (power supplies included). Mount the gateway in a control cabinet and run the antenna cables and power cables and the system is ready to program in the PLC.
