REMOTE AND WIRELESS MEASUREMENT

EFS develops connected sensors that are essential, for example, for improving the control (servo-control, regulation) or monitoring (predictive maintenance, data acquisition) of production equipment in Industry 4.0.

The difficulty often lies in implementing reliable measurements in a highly demanding industrial environment at low cost. This is why many developments stop at the Proof of Concept stage.

EFS’s expertise in the technological building blocks of sensors, autonomous power supplies and radio transmissions, as well as its extensive knowledge of industrial environments, requirements and standards, enable it to move rapidly from the Proof of Concept stage to a high-performance industrial product.

IN THE BEGINNING

An industry (heavy industry / chemicals) contact us for a reliable solution of electrical measurements on its existing process equipment

CONTEXT

The environment is very harsh and unfavorable to radio transmissions (high temperatures, omnipresent metal structures, etc.).
The solution had to be cost-effective (several thousand measurement points in the long term).

SOLUTION

Measurement conditioning unit, radio transmission, autonomy

COMPACT, SELF-CONTAINED SENSOR

Customer problem

An industrial company (heavy industry/chemicals) contacted us to find a reliable electrical measurement solution to equip its existing process equipment at a lower cost (several thousand measurement points eventually).

EFS response

Proposal for a co-development project in several phases:

  • Definition of objectives, collection of physical data and constraints
  • Identification of possible concepts, choice and validation of a concept
  • Production of a series of pilot products based on the technological building blocks mastered by EFS
  • Industrialisation.

Advantages of the solution

  • Validated solution
  • Rapid deployment.
Stand-alone IIOT measurement unit for harsh environments
