CTRL Releases Version 2.0 With Wireless Communication to Online Ultrasound Trending-Analysis System
CTRL Systems, Inc. is releasing SoundCTRL 2.0, an ultrasound data capture software device. Using a wireless Internet connection, SoundCTRL automatically uploads the ultrasound data to InCTRL for monitoring, reporting and diagnosing bearings, gears, pumps and valves.
As a web-based analysis and reporting system, InCTRL (released in 2008) can now instantly communicate threshold conditions and bearing health assessments on the maintainer’s handheld SoundCTRL device while at the test site.
The entire InCTRL System includes online reporting and analysis software, SoundCTRL, and CTRL-developed ultrasound detection sensors. This system is scalable; suitable for deployment at a single location or corporate-wide. Management teams can access the data for oversight while away from the office, use the information for forecasting and compare equipment summaries by business unit.
