Use Case
Condition-based filter monitoring in production
Automotive, Food and Beverage, Energy and Utilities
Filters have the important task of filtering out contaminants in different media and thereby protecting the plant. They are used in various areas within a production process and must be replaced regularly as they are wearing parts. If this does not happen, components will become faulty or, in the worst case, machine downtimes will occur – a nightmare for every manufacturer. However, maintenance always means machine downtime, too. To plan the optimal use and replacement of the filters, it is possible to monitor the condition of each filter using a condition monitoring tool. This tool records current contamination using corresponding sensor data. Replacement of the filter can be planned at an early stage without having to rely on regular maintenance intervals. As a result, resources are used efficiently, downtimes are avoided and money is saved. In addition, maintenance can be optimally planned, which ensures a seamless process while taking maximum machine availability into account.
