General description i-ALERT™ Condition Monitor
Description
The i-ALERT Condition Monitor is a compact, battery-operated monitoring device that
continuously measures the vibration and temperature of the pump power end. The condition
monitor uses blinking red LEDs to alert the pump operator when the pump exceeds pre-set
vibration and temperature limits. This allows the pump operator to make changes to the
process or the pump before a catastrophic failure occurs. The condition monitor is also
equipped with a single green LED to indicate when it is operational and has sufficient battery
life.
