Reduces amount of equipment and saves a lot of space ... connect up to four sensors with one switch cabinet module
The universal second-generation switch cabinet module: i.Sense:modul II
The i.Sense:modul II offers you a wide range of options and application scenarios for smart condition monitoring. Specifically, this new generation allows for the simultaneous connection of four status sensors to just one control cabinet module, which results in considerable space and cost savings. This is the case not only in the control cabinet, but also in the chain itself as only one cable is required for up to four sensors.
In addition to these directly noticeable improvements, the new module now also offers a variety of typical Industry 4.0 use cases such as remote resetting via WLAN or SMS or the SMS/e-mail alarm function in the event of movement anomalies of the energy supply system. The selection of the communication path for configuration and data download with the i.Sense:module II is exceptionally versatile. In addition to the stationary connections via USB or LAN cable, this can also be done completely over-the-air via WLAN or Bluetooth with any conventional mobile device.
Tech up
- Configuration and sensor data download via a wide range of channels (USB, LAN, WLAN, Bluetooth etc.) and various terminal devices
- SMS/e-mail alarm
- Position-dependent force limit determination via GPS (optional)
- Remote reset via LAN/WiFi/SMS (with i.Cee connection)
- Extension with remote sensor box with up to 4 additional sensors
Cost down
- Up to 4 sensors for condition monitoring in one module (instead of one module for each sensor)
- Only one additional cable in the e-chain®
- SD card is eliminated completely
Proof
- Ongoing test series in the industry's largest test laboratory for dynamic power transmission systems
Sustainability
- Unplanned service deployments can be prevented - eliminating 100km of travel saves about 3.6kg of CO₂

What does condition monitoring (i.Sense) do?
Condition monitoring is the fastest, simplest way to combine many igus products to form a self-monitoring smart plastics product. Sensors are mounted to measure values such as temperature, forces and vibrations within pre-defined limits. Values outside the limits result in an alert or a notification. Based on this information, operators can decide on the next steps, e.g. maintenance or shutdown. If desired, values outside defined limits can trigger a system shutdown to prevent expensive consequential damage.At igus, we use the term "i.Sense" to refer to condition monitoring.
How do the condition sensors (EC.P) work?
- The EC.P (EC = e-chain P = pull force) sensor is mounted on the (floating) moving end of the e-chain.
- It measures pull forces applied to the e-chain.
- If force thresholds are exceeded, the sensor identifies the issue, reports it and switches off the system to prevent expensive consequential or total damage.
