An innovation in video-based condition monitoring

27/05/2022

RDI Technologies (RDI) has announced the release of the newest Iris CM, a scalable condition monitoring system that connects the power of video-based motion amplification technology with the ability to perform continuous condition monitoring.

“The Iris CM is a powerful union of traditional and innovative vibration methodologies that allows users to collect, store, analyse and trend all of their sensor data in a centralised place,” said Product Manager, Mason McNally. “It is flexible enough to use as a turnkey solution and robust enough to scale to fit all of your monitoring needs.”

Numerous cameras can be networked to capture simultaneous data and offer multiple views of a process, test, piece of machinery or multiple assets. Leveraging a powerful 6 TB acquisition device, the Iris CM can acquire and store HD data for each connected camera, along with external sensor data from accelerometers, tachometers and any 4-20 mA input. The Iris CM also supports high-frequency applications by leveraging the capabilities of the Iris MX.

Users can safely and remotely trigger video and data recordings, store the recordings concurrently over time and receive alerts when triggers fire. By leveraging Boolean logic, RDI customers can define precise trigger criteria based on external inputs, virtual camera-based regions of interest, thresholds for movement and timed schedules.
