Our service team has completed another Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) installation, this time on a vessel operating in China.
As part of the project, dedicated measuring points were installed on selected electric motors, enabling fast, repeatable, and accurate vibration measurements using the IM-200 ATEX sensor in combination with the IM DC810 ATEX tablet.
The installation of measuring points provides several key benefits:
🔹 precise reproduction of the measurement location,
🔹 reduced service and inspection time,
🔹 lower operational costs due to fewer required sensors,
🔹 improved data consistency and diagnostic accuracy.
This solution is an important element of our strategy to standardize measurement practices across the maritime industry, significantly improving the efficiency and reliability of CBM processes onboard.
Why implement CBM on your fleet?
Early detection of machinery issues, data-driven maintenance planning, and real reductions in operational costs are just some of the advantages offered by CBM.
Our technology enables continuous insight into the condition of critical machinery components while simplifying the diagnostic workflow for onboard crews.

FAQ
Q1: What is a marine vibration analyzer?
A marine vibration analyzer is a portable device that measures machine vibration onboard ships to diagnose faults like unbalance, misalignment, looseness, and bearing defects.
Q2: Do I need an ATEX-rated analyzer on my vessel?
Choose ATEX if your routes include hazardous areas. If you measure only outside Ex zones, a non-ATEX analyzer is sufficient.
Q3: Can crews collect data route-by-route during watches?
Yes. A route-based workflow lets crews follow predefined points, record FFT/envelope data, and trend results fleet-wide.
Q4: What outputs should I expect from a marine vibration analyzer?
RMS overall levels, spectra (FFT), envelope, phase (when available), severity indicators, and exportable reports for maintenance planning.
