The sensorized counter ring from METAX enables precise online condition monitoring of mechanical seals. It records key parameters such as lubrication status and temperature directly in the sealing gap and thus ensures maximum operational safety.
The sensed sealing ring is an innovative solution for demanding plant operators who require maximum safety and efficiency of rotating systems. Equipped with an integrated sensor, the sealing ring constantly monitors the lubricant film condition and the temperature in the sealing gap, thus ensuring early detection of critical operating conditions. This real-time data enables predictive maintenance measures, minimizes the risk of unplanned downtimes and protects against subsequent damage to the machine and the environment.
Thanks to its ready-to-install design and the coded electrical connector, the sensed sealing ring is particularly easy to install and can be easily integrated into existing systems. The pre-assembled sensor unit ensures easy handling, while the wide variety of materials — such as silicon carbide or tungsten carbide for the sliding surfaces and several types of elastomers for the secondary sealing — opens up flexible applications depending on the medium and operating requirements.
The sensor evaluation is carried out via the BeMos One Controller or SealDot — for maximum compatibility and convenient data collection. The sensed sealing ring thus sets new standards in terms of safety, plant availability and process control.
