2 About Condition Monitor
The Condition Monitor (CM) is a compact, easy to use, vibration monitoring system which allows the
user to monitor the condition of rotating equipment. The CM is battery powered, and communication is
performed wirelessly by means of Bluetooth, thus no need for cabling.
During operation, the CM measures equipment vibration. The measurements are compared against a
baseline set during an initial “Teach” calibration period, which reflects a normal condition. The user is
notified in case of vibration deviations that exceeds user configurable thresholds.
Advanced frequency analysis functions assist the user in detecting maintenance demanding
equipment components in due time, so that maintenance can be carried out as a planned operation.
A minimum of 1 year of measurements can be stored directly on the CM.
NOTE
The CM shall be used in conjunction with a handheld device (not included) running Android or iOS
with the Alfa Laval Condition Monitor application installed.
The battery life of the CM is expected to be at least 2-3 years under normal operating conditions.
Since this depends on user behavior, battery life time is excluded from warranty.

The CM is approved for use in the following contries:
United States, Canada, China and The United Kingdom, Europe ; Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
