Could You Benefit from Precision Sampling?
Did you know that changing sampling methods to best practice valve sampling can have a significant impact on corporate profitability? That's because the success of an oil analysis program begins with the oil sample sent into the lab. Incorporating condition monitoring alongside valve sampling has shown to contribute to more compliance, better oil analysis results, and increased program savings. Discover the ways you could benefit from best practice oil sampling.

How to Reduce the Hidden Costs and Dangers Lurking Throughout Your Steam System – Continuous, Batteryless Steam Trap Monitoring
This paper will discuss the costs and risks inherent in every steam trap system. We will then explain why two common “solutions” simply don’t solve the problem as well as they could. Finally, we will suggest an easy-to-deploy, cost-effective answer: A continuous monitoring system that uses batteryless sensors to deliver real-time alerting through the cloud, without the need for manual inspection — ever.

The Use of New CMS Technologies for Critical Rotating Machinery
Today, there is a new generation of CMS devices that overcomes the barriers that have traditionally prevented an adequate condition monitoring service on critical rotating machinery. The use of these new CMS, in combination with the usually pre-installed Machine Protection Systems (MPS), requires a proportionally small investment, but provides numerous advantages that increase the reliability of those assets...

Lubrication Basics and Condition Inspection
According to statistics, there are more than 50 billion bearings being manufactured during the past 5 years around the world. Only a relatively small percentage of all bearings in use fail. Majority (90%) of the bearings outlive the equipment in which they have been installed.

Thermal Imaging Cameras An introduction to Selection
What is a thermal image?
Thermal images are created by converting thermal radiation into a visible light image that we as humans can interpret. One important point to remember about thermal imaging is that it is a non-contact measurement of radiated energy in a very narrow wavelength band.
