Unplanned equipment downtime causes signicant disruption to operations and productivity which directly impacts a company’s bottom
line. This problem is further compounded with legacy equipment that is prone to frequent failures. Current inspection methods mainly
involve maintenance personnel physically checking equipment on a periodic basis. This approach is resource intensive and cannot be
scaled easily. Further, complexity and cost of repairs increases after equipment failures occur, compared to preventive measures.
iCOMOX (Intelligent Condition Monitoring Box) – is a portfolio of sensor and backhaul devices that combined with software and cloud
capabilities create a development platform for Condition Based Monitoring (CBM) of industrial equipment, assets, and structures.
iCOMOX monitors operating conditions from the surface of the equipment to identify potential faults and reduce risks associated with
equipment operation and maintenance. This extends the lifetime of the equipment, reduces unplanned downtime, cuts maintenance
costs, and unlocks potential for energy savings.
Newly released versions
oer three options for
backhaul connectivity —
NB-IoT, Power over Ethernet
(PoE) or SmartMesh IP
Benets of the iCOMOX Platform

Ordering Information
Autonomous Mode Operation with Built-In AI
For the SRT-ICOMOX-POE-SEC-AI Version
Autonomous mode anomaly detection algorithms allow users to congure a single preset
state to be learned by the algorithm. Once a machine learning program learns a preset
state, any deviations of observed behavior relative to the preset state can be easily
detected and reported automatically. Autonomous mode nds particular application
in selecting sensors for AI systems and in training AI algorithms. Algorithms can be
congured for a wide training duration (1 to 65535 minutes) and the learning result can be
stored in non-volatile memory.
The benets of the autonomous mode include:
>Compared to the demo mode operation running on all other iCOMOX versions, the
autonomous mode has four times more internal (hidden) substates that augment
learning in a single state
>Storage of the learned model in a non-volatile memory (in external ash)
>Ability to run learning mode for an extended period allowing learning of the machine
behavior for several hours and automatically switching inference mode
>Ability to control sensors involved in the learning/inference mode
