UPGRADE FOR UPTIME

Equip your flexible coupling with AIQ Detect to benefit from increased operational reliability and reduced unplanned downtime.


 

SAVE TIME, MONEY, AND RESOURCES WITH AIQ DETECT

With AIQ Detect, your flexible N-EUPEX and RUPEX coupling becomes a smart component. The digital coupling sensor monitors the wear condition of the elastomers and also measures rotation direction and speed. This way, you have the condition of your coupling under continuous surveillance.



 

MINIMIZE DOWNTIME

Continuous and permanent monitoring of the coupling with AIQ Detect prevents unplanned failures and increases operational reliability. It also forms the basis for condition-based maintenance. Instead of a regular exchange of elastomers, the replacement can now be targeted and done only when needed. This is not only cost-effective but also sustainable.

SAVE EFFORT

With AIQ Detect, the condition of your flexible coupling is always assessed in a consistent way based on valid measurements. Therefore, no training or adaptation of personnel is required for monitoring. Once the wear limit of the elastomers is reached, the sensor reports the change in condition. There is still enough time to plan for maintenance. Yearly routine maintenance can mean several hours of time and equipment shutdown. With AIQ Detect, you can save on this effort in the long term.

MONITOR FUNCTIONS

The sensor not only checks the wear of the elastomers but also records each rotation of the coupling. Based on this data, AIQ Detect can determine and provide rotation speed and direction. This ensures that the drive train is operating correctly at all times.

CONVENIENT STATUS MONITORING WITH EXTENSIVE CONNECTION OPTIONS

With AIQ Detect, you can always keep an eye on your coupling. The wear status of the elastomers is displayed directly on the sensor via a colored LED light strip. You can also call up the status in the AIQ app via a Bluetooth connection. A wired PLC interface is available to connect to your system controller. You can configure the connection assignment and adjust warnings. You can also monitor the coupling status online in the AIQ Portal. To do this, must connect the AIQ Detect to an existing AIQ Core, whose WiFi connection is then used for data transmission. You can find an overview of all technical data in the box on the right and in the data sheet, which you can download directly as a PDF file.

EASILY RETROFIT OR ORDER DIRECTLY

When purchasing a new N-EUPEX or RUPEX, you can configure it with the 'AIQ Detect Ready' option. Your coupling will then be equipped with the magnets required for the sensor's measurements right from the factory. This prepares everything for the use of AIQ Detect. Of course, you can also order the AIQ Detect sensor simultaneously. This way, you will have your coupling's condition in view immediately after installation.

AIQ Detect can also be retrofitted to any N-EUPEX or RUPEX, allowing you to easily upgrade your existing couplings. The magnets necessary for the measurements must be installed afterwards.

To retrofit your already installed N-EUPEX or RUPEX coupling with an AIQ Detect sensor, coupling-specific upgrade packages and an installation kit are available. You can order both in the FLENDER Mall. If your coupling is already AIQ Ready, the installation kit is not necessary. You can find out more about the contents of the packages and direct links to order the products in the mall on the right-hand side.

Regardless of which package you choose, the installation of AIQ Detect is easy and quick. Especially when considering that the benefits will be available to you throughout the entire lifespan of the coupling. The installation video guides you through this process step by step and demonstrates the necessary procedures. Additionally, you can also review the procedure in the AIQ Detect quick guide.
