Bently Nevada's Ranger Pro Wireless temperature and vibration sensing system reduces the frequency of sudden equipment failures by way of accurate and early detection of an issue. Turn unplanned outages into manageable, predictive maintenance. With the addition of the Ranger Pro's wireless condition monitoring capabilities to your detection arsenal, you can expand your existing reliability program to gain a greater advantage in keeping your systems up and running.
When it comes to machinery protection, the more data, the better. The caveat is that your data needs to be accurate as well; otherwise, it's useless - or worse - detrimental to your efforts. Ranger Pro is a vibration and temperature monitoring system that provides you with the data you need to drive an effective predictive maintenance program.
Use Ranger Pro Wireless Condition Monitoring for immediate notifications of an issue, the acquisition of short- and long-term trending data, and diagnostic reporting. With wireless, plantwide and accurate data, you can eliminate the extra costs associated with "reporting by walking around" – and any potential misdiagnoses from mere observation.
