Condition Monitoring Sensor: Vibration Monitoring for HVAC Equipment

The Condition Monitoring Sensor from MachineSens IoT is a vibration sensor that tracks the mechanical performance of rotating equipment and HVAC infrastructure, such as fans, pumps and motors. It connects over LoRaWAN, Modbus RS485 or Wi-Fi and sends readings to the BuildOT One platform, where drift is flagged before a failure.

What the Condition Monitoring Sensor does

  • Detects vibration changes. Tracks how rotating equipment behaves over time and highlights change from its normal pattern.
  • Spots mechanical drift. Slow deterioration shows up in the trend long before a breakdown.
  • Reports wirelessly. Choose LoRaWAN or Wi-Fi, or use Modbus RS485 where a wired link already exists.
  • Triggers early action. Alerts feed maintenance planning so repairs are scheduled, not rushed.

Where it is used

Typical uses include chillers, air handling unit fans, pumps and cooling tower motors in offices, hotels, hospitals, malls and campuses across the UAE and GCC. Cooling carries about 70% of peak load in Gulf buildings (PwC Strategy&), so keeping this equipment healthy matters.

Frequently asked questions

What equipment can it monitor?

Rotating equipment and HVAC infrastructure, including fans, pumps and motors.

How does it send data?

Over LoRaWAN, Modbus RS485 or Wi-Fi, depending on the site and the connectivity option you choose.

Does it replace routine inspections?

It reduces blind spots between inspections. Your team still services equipment, but based on measured condition.
