Pressure of cold and hot water (Savencia Fromage & Dairy SK)

The aim of the project is to measure the pressure of cold and hot water in the production area of the company SAVENCIA, which is engaged in food production (Liptovské mliekarne, dairy products under the brand LIPTOV)
The solution was implemented using a P1AP device - a battery-powered pressure sensor designed for industrial environments, also suitable for the food industry. Pressure sensors measure the pressure of cold and hot water on the production line. The data is then sent wirelessly to the SCADA system, where it is further processed and evaluated.
The result is monitoring and detection of water pressure problems on production lines. Problems with a possible pressure drop are detected. Due to the several places where these pressure sensors will be moved as needed throughout the plant, it was necessary to use pressure sensors with battery power and wireless data transmission, so that cable power + transmission does not always have to work, which is quite complicated in 'clean' production areas.

Inclination of the piston (U. S. STEEL)

The aim of the project was to measure the inclination of the piston floating on the liquefied gas in the tank and prevent its jamming. The previous system uses a hose spirit level, where the level of tar oil in the individual parts of the piston and human workers who use a meter to measure this fluid changes according to the inclination.
The solution was implemented using sensors that measure the level and are suitable for the explosive environment. 12 sensors send data wirelessly to the gateway using wireless technology at a shorter distance. The gateway then sends all data to the order system.
As a result, the customer can monitor the position of the piston much more often than before and also does not have to use workers who have to wear protective suits as often.

Predictive maintenance

The aim of the project is to monitor the wear of HVAC system motors in the company's production hall, which is engaged in the production of hygiene products.
The solution was implemented by an industrial, modular system that measures the temperature, vibration and consumption of the electric motor on all three phases using connected sensors. The device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The data is sent wirelessly to the customer's SCADA system, where it is further processed and evaluated. The device is used in demanding conditions in which it must withstand vibration and high dust.
As a result, the customer knows in advance what condition each engine is on in the HVAC system. Therefore, it can better set up inspections, maintenance and replacement of individual engines. The chance of an unexpected failure that could affect production is also reduced.
