Alfa Laval Launches Next Generation Condition Monitoring

(MENAFN- Mid-East Info) /INS. Alfa Laval launches ClariotTM, a next generation, AI-based condition monitoring solution, precision-built for hygienic process equipment to deliver more accurate analysis and support. ClariotTM monitors equipment and processes, providing actionable insights that enhance uptime and optimize resource efficiency.

“We developed Clariot based on our extensive experience from more than 3,000 condition monitoring units already operating worldwide”, says Torsten Pedersen , Commercial Head Condition Monitoring at Alfa Laval Fluid Handling.“With new hardware and software, we can now offer a complete digital handshake, tailored for use in demanding hygienic processes.”

Every drop counts

Unplanned downtime costs manufacturers billions of euro in lost revenue each year. Idle process lines cause product loss, extra cleaning, production delays, wasted water and potential damage to machinery.

“In a world where every drop and every man-hour count, our customers increasingly seek solutions that improve uptime and productivity, while reducing resource waste. This is where ClariotTM makes a difference, helping manufacturers in hygienic industries prevent failures and run at full capacity without unnecessary interruptions”, says Torsten Pedersen .

ClariotTM provides 24/7 monitoring, alerts and diagnostics for pumps and other rotating equipment, e.g. agitators. The industry-intelligent solution proactively detects machine failures before they occur, maximizing performance, minimizing downtime and extending equipment lifespan.

From insight to foresight

ClariotTM is an important next step in the digitalization strategy of Alfa Laval, where resource and operational efficiency align with the latest smart technologies.

“We firmly believe that predictive maintenance is the future of manufacturing, enabled by sensor data, AI-driven insights and digital connectivity. Time and time again we have seen how our condition monitoring solutions have alerted operators to potential failures before they happen and enabled predictive maintenance strategies”, says Torsten Pedersen .

Clariot is a standalone system, enabling maximum cybersecurity by operating independently from internal business-critical systems. Installation is simple, and ClariotTM is compatible with most pump brands. The user interface is intuitive, and the investment is low with a short payback time.

“In a setup with 50 pumps, just one unplanned stop per quarter can result in annual losses up to 80,000 euros, while the solution from Alfa Laval costs less than one tenth of that scenario, delivering a fast payback time”, says Torsten Pedersen .
