Smart monitoring

Integrated control systems manufacturer Controlstar Systems has received a grant under the DTI's Smart Awards scheme to help fund the development of two condition-monitoring systems that will have the capability of sending invaluable data from remote sites back to a central point using a dial-up connection, intranet or the internet. The first system is for vibration monitoring and will help predict incipient failures of rotating equipment in the field; the second is a power quality monitoring system that will provide a facility for analysing energy usage at remote locations.
