To make good decisions, people, automation and AI systems need quality data — but to let an AI agent make an autonomous decision without input from operators and key decision makers means a processor needs to have lots of accurate data based on real and known sensory inputs, which may not exist in many plants and enterprises.

Moisture monitoring has become an integral part of the production line, helping manufacturers safeguard product quality, boost efficiency and meet compliance targets.

It wasn’t that long ago that maintenance systems were an afterthought to control systems. Today, sensors and software focused on maintenance run on edge-based equipment in parallel with control systems, letting manufacturers plan for processing and maintenance in an orderly and sensible way.

The system can monitor a variety of conditions, including temperature, humidity, vibration and pressure.

Process automation with the help of sensors helps minimize waste, reduce energy consumption and optimize resources by enabling real-time monitoring and precise control over production processes.

The Rosemount 490A provides accurate dissolved oxygen measurements in demanding environments while simplifying integration into existing control systems with digital and universal Modbus RTU communication via an accompanying transmitter.

The DS1 can help operators detect and mitigate excess moisture in its early stages and prevent moisture-related equipment damage.
