Hi there,

I would like to share a trick how to set up a condition monitoring in MaintainX (temperature, vibration etc).

I track equipment vibration using Meters and Procedures. For some equipment which do not have online vibration reading, we perform monthly measurements using portable Fluke vibration meter. So, I have created meters to capture the vibration readings. For example, I named the meters as: ID Fan Motor DE Bearing Vibration and ID Fan Motor NDE Bearing Vibration.

Then, I created an inspection procedure in which I linked these meters for technician to capture the readings.

For the meters I created Work Order Triggers when a value exceeds a given maximum value for vibration. 

I believe the same trick can be used to monitor and trigger any other conditions.

Hope it can be useful for someone else.
