CM PRODUCTS
Alstom MSc is a premium provider of machinery health monitoring
solutions to industry. The unique benefit that we offer is an integrated
package of leading technologies, expert consultancy skills, training and
customer support. This means we can tailor solutions to meet the
needs of our customers.
When dealing with Alstom MSc, you can be assured we have the
product range, technical know-how and resources to deliver and support
a condition monitoring package that works for you.
Our product range includes:
PORTABLE VIBRATION MONITORING - The Emerson CSI range has
a reputation second to none in portable vibration monitoring. Our range
includes CSI 2130 data collectors and analysers and AMS Machinery
Manager software, plus the training and customer support to ensure
the best program performance. For smaller plants and smaller CM
programs, we offer the VMI range of hand held vibration meters and
analysers.
ONLINE VIBRATION MONITORING - For critical plant applications,
online monitoring provides the best protection against machinery failure.
However, quality engineering and project execution is important for
success. Alstom MSc has a very well equipped team of online system
engineers, with comprehensive experience in mechanical applications
and instrumentation. Our product range includes full turbine supervisory
systems through to simple online devices for smaller machines.
SENSORS - Our extensive range of CTC accelerometers, cables
and mounting hardware for monitoring online or inaccessible plant
includes the PRO line of 4-20mA sensors for simple online monitoring
and proximity probes for turbo machinery. CTC offers an outstanding
UNCONDITIONAL LIFETIME WARRANTY on all products.
WIRELESS VIBRATION MONITORING - For many applications,
such as remote machinery monitoring, the costs of wired monitoring
systems can be prohibitive. Our latest wireless solutions from Emerson
dramatically reduce these costs, while providing reliability, security and
integration with control systems.
IR THERMOGRAPHY - We provide low cost thermal imagers through
to advanced portable and online cameras .
LUBRICATION ANALYSIS PRODUCTS - We offer Emerson CSI
oil analysers and laboratory data management software and UVLM
greasing monitoring devices.
MEASUREMENT AND TEST PRODUCTS - Our range includes shaft,
pulley and roll laser alignment systems, ultrasonic thickness meters,
strobes, tachometers and stainless steel shims.
CM SERVICES
Alstom MSc has a 20 strong technical team, with experienced condition
monitoring technicians and engineers in every mainland state providing
a variety of technical services.
TRAINING - We partner with the globally recognized Vibration Institute
to offer their certification program, as well as a range of courses on CM
other technologies.
CUSTOMER SUPPORT - Our entire range of products is backed up by
our dedicated direct support team. All of our support team members are
qualified and experienced CM practitioners.
ROTOR DYNAMICS - Multichannel monitoring, troubleshooting and
balancing on gas, steam, hydro and wind turbines.
