The Aventics Smart Pneumatic Monitor (SPM) module provides information on the state of wear of actuators, valves and other devices as well as pneumatic systems’ energy efficiency without the need to involve machine control. Together with the Aventics AES fieldbus system, the SPM module detects in advance when critical limits will be reached and provides the key information for early intervention. The sensor data collected via the I/O modules also provides options to optimize other important areas. In line with the IoT concept, the system records local data independently of the control and prepares and supplies the information via standard interfaces wherever it is required.
