The principle of Condition Monitoring (CM) or Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) of machinery is straightforward:

• The goal is to identify changes in the condition of a machine that will indicate some potential failure
• Physical characteristics are identified that collectively indicate the current condition of the machine
• Each of these is measured, analyzed, and recorded so that trends can be recognized.

Rockwell Automation condition monitoring technologies and services are widely available to assist in proactively identifying changes in machine condition, sometimes weeks or months before any problems are visibly apparent. Predictive and proactive maintenance methods, such as using information gathered by vibration, temperature, and oil analysis, can help companies identify potential problems that ultimately could result in downtime if not corrected.
 

In today's world, energy and demand costs have a definite impact on your company's bottom line. We understand how important it is for you to do everything in your power to reduce your energy costs. To be a well-informed energy consumer, you must know:

• how much power you use,
• what your major loads are,
• when you use electric power the most, and
• how much you pay for it.

It is also important to understand the quality of the power you use as poor power quality reduces productivity and shortens equipment life, which can drive down your company's profits.

Rockwell Automation Power and Energy Management Solutions has a complete portfolio of engineered systems, hardware, software, communication networks and specialized services to help you reduce your costs and better manage your power needs.
