Learn normal operation.
Compare new readings with the way that machine usually runs.
Predictive maintenance
Know what needs attention and why.
See likely equipment problems, the readings behind them, and recommended checks before you plan maintenance.
Use our sensors, your existing equipment data, or both.
The sensor
Vibration, ultrasound, and temperature.
Our wireless sensor measures all three. Control Seat turns the readings into condition checks and equipment history.
- VibrationLook for patterns consistent with bearing problems, imbalance, or misalignment.
- UltrasoundSpot acoustic changes that may point to friction or lubrication issues.
- TemperatureCatch overheating and unusual temperature changes.
See the problem and the evidence.
Identify likely problems.
Condition checks flag possible bearing problems, misalignment, overheating, and more, with supporting measurements.
Know what to check.
See recommended inspections and ask the AI assistant to explain a finding.
Monitor the equipment that matters.
Use sensors for mechanical condition and plant data for process and electrical checks.
Rotating equipment
Follow vibration, ultrasound, and temperature on motors, pumps, fans, compressors, and gearboxes.
Refrigeration and utilities
Track compressors, pumps, and fans alongside available pressure, temperature, and operating data.
Fluid and process systems
Check pressure, flow, temperature, and valve behavior using existing plant data.
Electrical and custom equipment
Monitor available current, power, voltage balance, temperature, and cycle data.
For the teams keeping equipment running.
Manufacturers
Monitor production equipment and utilities, starting with machines where downtime costs the most.
Marine fleets
Explore monitoring for onboard pumps, fans, compressors, and other machinery, scoped vessel by vessel.
System integrators
Add machine health to customer installations, with help from our team.
Getting started
Start with the machines that matter most.
Choose machines, install sensors, and review the first readings with our team. Add more equipment when you’re ready.
Common questions
Can you use wired sensors?
Yes. We can scope wired options to suit your equipment and site. We confirm the sensor, connection, and available measurements before installation.
Do the sensors need a PLC or SCADA connection?
Our wireless sensors connect through a gateway. A PLC or SCADA connection is not required.
Will this tell me the exact time a machine will fail?
No. Control Seat identifies warning signs and likely causes, but cannot guarantee detection of every failure or an exact failure date.
Can you help with installation?
Yes. We help select equipment, place sensors, connect the data, and review the first readings.
How do I evaluate whether it is worth it?
Compare monitoring costs with downtime and emergency repair costs. Use our guide and calculator to estimate the value.
