CF.D Sensor

Detect cable stress early ... better and more accurately than ever before

NEW with optical condition display: The i.Sense CF.D module detects transmission problems early on if bus cables are heavily stressed; for the first time, it determines the distance to the risk area.

The new i.Sense CF.D module from smart plastics is the first real alternative to this: Predictive maintenance ... or the predictive maintenance of data, bus or Ethernet cables by means of intelligent monitoring of data transmission quality during operation.

i.Sense CF.D monitors the performance of heavily loaded, failure-prone Ethernet cables at all times and displays the current status directly on the new multifunction module. What's more, for the first time and as yet unrivalled worldwide, the distance to the detected danger zone of the cable is determined, which avoids time-consuming and costly troubleshooting. You too can plan your next maintenance optimally and utilise the benefits of predictive maintenance from smart plastics.

  • Ports and container cranes
  • Conveying and bulk handling
    • i.Cee in a train washing station

    "Less effort, higher availability"

    "The machine works with really high stroke rates. That's why we needed high-strength cables. We also needed to find a preventive warning system to avoid cost-intensive downtime on this machine with its high output."

    Other smart solutions for cable monitoring

    No additional module is required for condition monitoring (i.Sense) with the help of chainflex cables. The system can be operated without additional software during integration and networking. In these cases, cable takes over three possibilities of condition monitoring.

    • Push/pull force measurement via the cable (CF.P)
    • Measurement of the electrical specification of a cable (CF.Q)
    • Measurement of the transmission quality (CF.D)
