Product description
About the Schaeffler ProLink system
ProLink is a condition monitoring system for permanent frequency selective monitoring of plants. It consists of a
processor module (CPU) and at least one vibration module (Vibration). The system can be extended to a maximum
of 4 vibration modules. Up to 4 analogue and 2 digital signals can be connected per vibration module and measured
values can be logged, recorded and analysed. After the analysis, the system can switch up to 4 digital outputs per
vibration module depending on user-defined alarm limits and report the state to an external control system, for
example.
The ProLink device can be used to cover a wide range of applications; the ProLink device can be configured to
meet your own requirements using the integrated Schaeffler SmartWeb software. There, the connected modules
with their inputs and outputs are automatically created with default configurations and can then be adapted to your
system. The ProLink device is administered using the software Schaeffler SmartUtility Light or optionally Schaeffler
SmartUtility.
With ProLink, the Schaeffler offers status monitoring that is optimised to suit your requirements.
