SEE THE PROBLEM BEFORE IT’S A PROBLEM

LOAD MONITORING FASTENERS

When it comes to renewable energy, reliability is key. Now, there’s a new tool that can help you prevent reliability issues before they happen. With Load Monitoring Fasteners, you can monitor the tension of critical bolts in real time. These advanced bolts sync with any phone, handheld reader, or connected device to continuously monitor fastener tension and alert you when it’s loose.

“Revolutionize your assemblies and maintenance with real-time, precise and easy to monitor information…”

LMF+ FOR THE RENEWABLE ENERGY SECTOR

Tightening a loose bolt on a wind farm in the ocean or at a remote solar field isn’t easy. It requires time, planning, and specific resources. With LMF bolts, you’ll know exactly when certain bolts are coming loose and have the time you need to get a team on site to fix the problem and keep generating power. Our LMF bolts are tested and proven to work in all types of conditions, helping you improve reliability, monitor changes in tension, and avoid shutdowns.

BOLTSENSE® PRODUCTS

Load Monitoring Fastener+® (LMF+®) is a wireless, accurate, and automatic load monitoring fastener system. The LMF+® is extremely easy to use and will allow users to continually observe and record the true tension (tightness) of fasteners, both during installation and while equipment is in operation. Automated alerts will notify you if tension exceeds or falls below predetermined and updateable values or thresholds.

Load Indicating Fastener includes the same base fastener as the LMF+® product, but without the continuous transmitting cap. Instead, the LIF has a stainless steel dust cap, and readings can be taken anytime with a clip-on reader (both magnetic and screw-on.)
