Predictive Maintenance,
On the Same Platform

Condition monitoring is usually sold as its own system: its own sensors, its own dashboard, its own login. It can tell you a bearing is getting worse. It cannot tell you the line was running a heavier product that week, because it has never seen your process data.

That is why so many of these programs stall after the pilot. The alerts are real, but nobody can explain them fast enough to act on them.

What we launched

Control Seat now monitors motors, pumps, fans, gearboxes, and compressors with wireless vibration, ultrasound, and temperature sensors. The readings go straight into the same platform as your PLC, SCADA, historian, and alarms.

They arrive as ordinary tags, so machine health sits right beside your process data. You can see vibration climb, and see what the machine was doing at the time.

What it catches

The sensors pick up 3-axis vibration with full spectrum detail, not just a single summary number. Ultrasound covers the range where bearing wear and lubrication problems show up first, well before anything gets loud enough for a person to notice. Temperature comes back alongside it, so you can see whether a machine is actually running hot or just noisy.

The diagnosis is automatic

A spectrum is only useful if someone can read it, and most plants do not have a vibration analyst on staff. Our intelligence layer learns how each machine normally runs, then watches the frequencies where specific faults show up.

When something changes it names the fault: bearing wear, imbalance, misalignment, looseness, or cavitation. It rates how urgent the fault is and recommends the next maintenance action. It also sees your process data, so it can tell a machine that is genuinely degrading from one that ran a heavier product that week.

No wiring to pull

Sensors form their own wireless mesh, clear of your Wi-Fi, and report through a gateway. Range is about 2 miles outdoors and 1,000 feet indoors, and the network grows as you add assets.

Each one runs up to five years on a battery you can swap with a spanner wrench. The housing is sealed aluminum and magnets straight onto the machine.

Get started

If you have machines with a history of surprise downtime, get in touch and we will scope what it takes to monitor them.
