Alfa Laval Analytics for online condition monitoring

Using artificial intelligence, the Alfa Laval Analytics for online condition monitoring is designed to help hygienic industries prevent unplanned downtime, extend lifetime of valuable assets and help to reach sustainability targets. 

The easy-to-use solution is designed to detect potential machine faults before they occur and help diagnose the root cause. Suitable for new and existing pump installations from Alfa Laval, the solution includes a one-year subscription, including online installation, training in use of the dashboard and ongoing support.

The AI-based solution works by collecting and analysing pump vibration data around the clock. Analytics can provide a clear and intuitive overview of the health condition of the equipment through a simple dashboard — green for ok, yellow for pay attention, orange for warning and red for immediate action.

With its ability to predict failure and identify parts that need repair or replacement, the solution can help with implementing predictive maintenance strategies that eliminate extra cost and prevent unplanned downtime.

At the same time, the solution is designed to support the sustainability agenda by allowing plants to do more with less and enhance energy efficiency, which can help to reduce carbon emissions.

Designed to be a cyber-secure solution, all data is transmitted via mobile network and requires no connection to the plant’s internet.

Analytics is part of the Connected Services program from Alfa Laval.
