System availability has never been as affordable as it is today | i.Sense EC.W

_{More system availability as favourable as never before. The new i.Sense EDC.W lifetime sensor.}

The new i.Sense EC.W sensor (part number: IS.EC.W.FIX.E4.XX.BETA) makes more system availability more favourable than ever before. Due to the direct connection of the PLC machine control via potential-free contacts, real-time status monitoring for your gliding energy supply systems is possible from EUR 248.00 (DE list). 

<br /><br />For this purpose, the service life sensor is installed on one of the last crossbars on the fixed end side and records the current ACTUAL condition of the chain side parts with sensor technology from the in-house igus 3D printing service; either directly for the PLC system control or via optional i.Cee module for comprehensive monitoring systems.

Tech up

• Condition monitoring for gliding e-chain® applications
• Direct connection via potential-free contacts to plant control system (PLC)
• Suitable for harsh, dark, or dirty environments
• In many cases, no additional cable routing in the e-chain® is necessary
• Comprehensive connectivity for integration into predictive maintenance concept with i.Cee

Cost down

• 80% cost reduction with a direct connection to plant control system
• Maintenance cost reduction thanks to predictive maintenance recommendations
• Avoidance of unplanned downtime thanks to condition-based alarm messages

Proof

• If there is a direct connection to the PLC customer control system, the switch cabinet module can be eliminated
• Ongoing test series in the largest Test laboratory  the industry for dynamic energy transmission systems

Sustainability

• Minimal material requirements for the integrated sensor
• Condition-based maintenance avoids unnecessary or premature chain replacement
