  • Wireless vibration transmitters makes it feasible to monitor vibration on smaller equipment like pumps, lesser compressors, cooling towers, air cooled heat exchangers, and fans/blowers etc., not just your largest and most critical turbo machinery. Vibration monitoring alone may not be sufficient so you can deploy additional wireless transmitters for complete condition monitoring of equipment to detect overheating, corrosion, leaks, and fluid losses etc. I also agree that using connected services based on Industrial IoT solutions for experts in a central location to monitor equipment in a plant or fleet of plant is a great idea. Vibration requires expertise so it is a very good example of where subject matter experts can help plants in remote locations. Valves is another good example. But even simple steam traps can benefit greatly. Learn more about connected services from this essay: www.linkedin.com/.../vendors-listening-ill-lend-you-ear-jonas-berge
