Application Note: Heavy Vehicle Health Monitoring

Scalable solutions to track component use and vehicle health.

 

LORD MicroStrain's vehicle monitoring systems, including the SG-Link wireless sensor node, track structural strain on off-highway vehicles. Embedded fatigue tracking algorithms enable automated alerts for streamlined maintenance action and fleet management. Wireless data is aggregated on a base station that supports custom health indicators.

 

It also enables secure communication with SensorCloud™, a remote data management and analytic platform that gives service technicians access to unlimited fleet data for enhanced tracking, reporting, and alerts. As a result, heavy-vehicle operators improve the effectiveness of scheduled maintenance programs, maximize component life, enhance machine availability, and reduce operating cost... all without sacrificing hauling performance.

Tech Note: Using a Chip-Size Antenna with 3DM-GX4-45

LORD MicroStrain 3DM-GX4-45

 

The  3DM-GX4-45™ GPS/INS inertial sensor is shipped with a Gilsson Technologies SMA1M09B180-NM general purpose, puck-type GPS antenna. This antenna has a footprint of 58mm(l) x 48mm(w) x 15mm(h). In certain applications, this antenna may have a footprint that is larger than desirable.

 

The 3DM-GX4-45™can accommodate a wide range of GPS antennas including the EAD GPS3626 Internal Active GPS antenna. This antenna has very small footprint at 20mm(l) x 20mm(w) x 6mm(h), which allows great flexibility where size and space are a premium..
