Harting MICA Industrial Edge Computer Plug & Play IoT Development Kit
HARTING and Bosch have combined their expertise in the first Plug & Play IoT kit for industrial applications with IP 54 protection available on the market. It allows digital condition monitoring of many sensor inputs from machinery, extremely quickly with a simple Plug & Play system.
Digital condition monitoring using physical measurements such as temperature and vibration is an efficient means of permanently monitoring and improving the operation and health of machinery and plant. It enables changes in machine behaviour to be identified and appropriate actions to be taken. Selecting, installing and integrating suitable components in existing infrastructure can sometimes be very costly however. HARTINGs IoT starter kit is suitable for prototyping and evaluation, and for long-term use industrial environments.
With the MICA® CISS Industrial IoT Kit an IoT solution is now available with easy Plug & Play operation, supplying initial data immediately. The kit comprises a CISS (Connected Industrial Sensor Solution) multi-sensor unit by Bosch and the MICA® Edge Computing System by HARTING. Only a few steps are necessary to start the application. The small CISS sensor unit can be attached to any surface (IP54) and detects up to eight physical factors including temperature, humidity, vibration, change of position, pressure, light, magnetic field and acoustics. The robust MICA® mini-computer can also be installed right next to the machine (IP67). A control cabinet is not necessary. MICA® is connected to the sensor unit and the local network via industry standard connectors. Immediately after start-up, the sensor data is provided in MQTT format and displayed in the web browser via the integrated Node-RED dashboard. Data can be analysed and stored in any IT systems or IoT platforms. A connector for Microsoft Azure Cloud is already pre-installed.
