by Brianna Crandall — December 11, 2015—Charleston-based Allied Reliability Group (Allied) has just announced the release of its AR-C10 data collector, which the company says is the market’s first multi-technology, Web-enabled data collection device that combines vibration, infrared, ultrasound, motor circuit analysis, and non-contact vibration (OptiVibe) measurements to offer its users a bridge to better condition monitoring.
According to John Schultz, CEO of Allied:
The condition-monitoring marketplace has had very few true innovations over the last 20 years. We know that best practice performers in condition monitoring spend up to 46% less on maintenance. With the AR-C10, a quality condition-monitoring program is feasible for anyone, regardless of size or location.
The AR-C10 data collector is a multi-technology, Web-enabled data collection device that combines vibration, infrared, ultrasound, motor circuit analysis, and non-contact vibration (OptiVibe) measurements to offer a bridge to better condition monitoring.
In addition to multi-technology integration, the AR-C10 offers its users:
- An intuitive user interface
- A single source of data storage
- Alarm management and generation
- Flexible route-based machine condition monitoring
- Enablement of a remote diagnostics model
Says Chris Klosterman, vice president of Products and Technology:
Combining the AR-C10 and Allied’s Reliability Management System, the market can now easily integrate a condition-monitoring program with existing investments in online hardware and ERPs such as SAP, Maximo, and Oracle.
This bridge solution helps drive higher productivity and cost efficiency by allowing users to scale to meet ever-changing demands in asset monitoring without increasing cost or resource strains.
Allied Reliability Group offers maintenance, reliability, and operational consulting and services, training, recruiting and integrated product solutions servicing the industrial and manufacturing sector.
