INTRODUCTION
The ProSmart Wireless Condition Monitoring System provides a cost effective method to monitor all types
of rotating equipment all year around - 24 hours a day; 7 days a week; 365 days a year. The ProSmart
System collects machine specific information and provides warnings and alarms to users. The ProSmart
System is designed around ease of installation, rapid deployment, easy system expansion, and no
additional IT infrastructure required. A user needs very little training to start using the ProSmart system.
The ProSmart System consists of four core components: ProNet Server Application, Communication
Module, Data Monitor, and Sensors.
ProNet Application
An internet based system providing Graphical User Interface for Analysis Tools such as FFTs and Band
Alarms, Event and Alarm Management, and Historical Data Management. ProNet automatically alerts the
select users to alarms via e-mail or voice phone calls so that the problem can be rectified before it results
in machine failure. Data storage and maintenance is handled by ITT and requires minimal IT involvement.
Communication Module
A field mountable wireless data communication module, manages all data communication between the
Data Monitor module(s) and ProNet server application. The Communication Module supports
communication to the server via Local Area Networks (LAN), dedicated broadband connection such as
cable and DSL, GPRS, and CDMA cell modems.
Data Monitor
A field mountable wireless data monitoring module for capturing, analyzing, and processing conditions of
any rotating equipment such as pumps, compressors, blowers, fans, mixers, etc. using Sensors and
analog/digital inputs. The Data Monitor should be mounted in close proximity to the machine.
Sensors
Range of ProSmart specific industrial “Plug and Play” sensors measuring Vibration, Temperature, and
Speed. ProSmart also allows 3 analog process inputs in the form of 4-20mA to be analyzed. ProSmart will
also analyze 2 digital inputs in the form of 0-24VDC. This moves ProSmart from being just a vibration
monitoring device to a complete condition monitoring solution.
ProSmart and its related products are protected by the following patents: 6,464,464; 6,487,903
B2; 6,564,627; 6,591,697; 6,648,606; 6,681,634 B2; 6,776,584; 7,080,508 B2; 7,112,037 B2.
