Approaches to Water Leakage In The UK and the US ‘Tis the season to talk leakage. Between the North American Water Loss (NAWL) conference in Kentucky, and the UK’s Annual Leakage Conference in England, it feels like everyone is thinking about non-revenue water (NRW) at the moment. As someone lucky enough to get a ringside seat at both events, I talked to frontline professionals on ...
Introduction With the growing global demand for critical raw materials and the need to explore untapped deposits on the seabed, the underwater mining sector is experiencing a major technological acceleration. Traditional equipment is no longer enough. We need robust, smart, and remote solutions capable of operating at increasing depths. In this article, we examine the main innovations, the ...
The resulting abundance of possible operating modes is thus practically never covered with sufficient data in the plant historian, so that ML-based models cannot be trained to fully represent the capabilities of the plant, even more so when it comes to actual technical limits, since ‘normal’ operation should have some margin to such boundaries. Adding the typical ...
In industries operating in ATEX zones, where therisk of explosion is constant, predictive maintenanceis becoming an essential driver of both safety andperformance.Anticipating Critical EventsThanks to real-time data analysis, predictivemaintenance helps prevent industrial incidents bydetecting anomalies before they escalate. Accordingto McKinsey, this approach reduces ...

Intelligent Energy Management Smart control systems equipped with sensors and data analytics can monitor real-time power usage across the crane’s functions. By analyzing performance data, operators can identify inefficiencies, detect idle energy losses, and optimize operating patterns.For instance, a 30-ton crane equipped with a smart control ...
Positioning sensors, such as encoders and laser tracking systems, provide real-time data on the location of the crane bridge, trolley, and hook. ...
Introduction: The New Era of Smart Leak Detection In today’s industrial landscape, leak detection has evolved from a simple maintenance routine to a critical component of safety, compliance, and sustainability. With increasing pressure from regulators, investors, and the public, companies must now monitor and manage leaks in real time, with absolute precision. This is where the Ventus ...

Manual inspections are not only a safety concern, but also prone to human error. Traditional contact-based sensors suffer from wear and require regular maintenance, while non-contact sensors often lack the speed needed to capture real-time changes in material flow. ...
Accurate, wireless, and rugged, these sensors log vital torque and depth data for validating the quality of deep foundation work such as helical screw piling, helical tieback anchors, and ground screws.With custom firmware and decoding support from the Datum engineering team, the sensors were successfully integrated into NASKU’s rig. The Impact ...
Metal Oxide Sensors These sensors use a metal oxide layer (such as iridium oxide) as the sensing element. ...
Always weigh the cost against the expected benefits before making any additional purchases.5. Track and Analyze Performance Data In the age of digitalization, tracking performance data has become a crucial strategy for improving the ROI of mobile asphalt plants. By monitoring the plant's performance in real-time, operators can detect inefficiencies and optimize ...
To address the increasing market need, Cubic, an Automotive Tier 1, leveraged its mature R&D and manufacturing expertise in gas sensors and analyzers to develop the automotive-grade Air Quality Sensor (AQS), AQM-1020, designed specifically for monitoring external air quality and supporting intelligent HVAC control systems. ...
Introduction: Why Methane Regulations Are Evolving Methane emissions have become one of the most pressing challenges in environmental regulation. Although methane accounts for a smaller percentage of greenhouse gases compared to carbon dioxide, its warming potential is over 80 times greater in the short term. This makes methane a critical target for climate action, particularly in the oil and ...

Light scattering PM sensors feature a compact design and an anti-dust structure that enhances durability and stability in long-term operation. ...
It’s a moment every machine operator dreads: a sudden warning light, a blinking error code, and the sinking realization that something has gone wrong. Generally speaking, especially in the machinery sector, downtime is usually the synonym for cost. But what if that moment of uncertainty could be transformed into casual event that does not trigger anxiety, or a bunch of missed working hours? ...

Reduced Maintenance and Downtime Modern remote control systems often include diagnostics and load monitoring features. Real-time data allows operators to detect issues early, schedule preventative maintenance, and avoid costly downtime.5. ...
It was designed to help industrial devices, like sensors, controllers, and data loggers, communicate reliably with one another. ...
Go beyond the basics: check protections, sensors, alarms, PLCs While the line is stopped, take the chance to check those things that never get attention: safety covers, alarms that never trigger, sensors giving erratic data, and even PLC logic that needs tuning. ...
Delta-T Devices is providing soil sensors and data loggers to the British Beet Research Organisation (BBRO) for use in important drought and water deficit research projects. On average, 59% of UK sugar beet is grown on sandy or sand-based soils, making the crop particularly vulnerable to drought and water deficit. Data from British Sugar* shows ...
To minimize these challenges, many operators are turning to smart sensor technology.Smart sensors provide real-time data about the condition and performance of RTG crane components. ...
