SKF CMDT 391-PRO-K-SL – Standard QuickCollect Sensor with Case and Accessories

• Magnetically attaches to equipment being monitored
• Measures velocity, enveloped acceleration, and temperature
• Communicate via Bluetooth to tablets and smart phones
• Connected App compatible with iOS and Android
• Rugged design for field use with IP65 rating

The SKF QuickCollect sensor is part of the SKF Enlight QuickCollect system, which also includes SKF mobile apps and SKF Machine Health software. This system is used by service, reliability, operations or maintenance personnel as part of a walk-around data collection program. With one wireless vibration and temperature sensor which can be connected to a tablet, smart phone or smart watch, the user can monitor hundreds of assets per day and thousands of assets per month. The data can be analysed on the spot in real time or sent to the cloud for analysis.

A typical operation would include the following steps: Take the QuickCollect sensor and smart device out to the rotating machinery to be monitored (such as a pump or motor). Mount the sensor on the bearing housing using the magnetic mount. Initiate the sensor measurement wirelessly using Bluetooth® Low Energy from the SKF QuickCollect, DataCollect or ProCollect app running on a smart device. After making the measurement, remove the sensor and proceed to the next machine or measurement location and continue taking measurements. When complete, return the sensor to its charger.

The QuickCollect sensor uses Bluetooth® low-energy version 4.2 wireless technology to communicate with off-the-shelf iOS and Android devices using the SKF QuickCollect, DataCollect or ProCollect applications for capturing overall machine vibration (velocity and enveloped acceleration), time waveform and temperature data.

The QuickCollect sensor features wireless data transfer, a rugged design and a rechargeable battery. The sensor increases operator safety by eliminating the hazards and inconvenience of cumbersome cables to provide a safe, fast and easy-to-use system for performing front-line machinery condition monitoring. The data collected and transferred to the SKF app is displayed on the screen with easy-to-identify colour-coded bars that indicate alarm status: green for acceptable, yellow for alert and red for danger.

1. Power Button – Powers the sensor on and off

2. Battery LED (green, red) – Indicates status of battery charge

3. Communication LED (green, red) – Indicates sensor connection status to app and when firmware updates are in progress

4. All-purpose check LED (green, red, amber) – Indicates error condition

Measurements taken by the sensor are shown on your mobile device, which displays velocity, enveloped acceleration and temperature as shown here. Each reading displays a current overall measurement, including alarm status, minimum and maximum values, and alert and danger thresholds.
