Technologies from Banner that Simplify Machine Monitoring

Recognizes an Array of Compatible Wired Sensors
SNAP ID enables our gateways to automatically identify a wired sensor, understand what data it is able to share, and present the data in easy-to- understand units such as pressure and current. This technology is found in many of our wired sensors that can monitor vibration, temperature, humidity, current, pressure, level, and dew point.

Recognizes an Array of Compatible Wireless Sensors
CLOUD ID is a technology that allows gateways to automatically recognize sensors and configure a cloud dashboard. This technology is found in many of our wireless sensor nodes that measure vibration, differential pressure, temperature and humidity, tank level, and more.

Takes the Complexity out of Vibration Monitoring
VIBE-IQ vibration monitoring software uses machine learning to simplify the process of setting warning and alarm thresholds for rotating assets like motors and gearboxes. The software continuously monitors vibration for changes and sends warnings and alarms automatically to ensure optimal performance and prevent unplanned downtime. VIBE-IQ does all the complicated analytical work, making the process effortless for users.
