The Octopus · IH-OCT-01

One Sensor. Many Senses.

A single industrial sensor that listens at ultrasonic frequencies and feels every vibration on every machine on your floor, creating cleaner evidence for reliability decisions. Washdown-safe, IP69K-rated, built for the lines that get hosed down at end of shift.

The sensing stack

One sensor package.
One machine picture.

The sensing stack is built to capture the fast, slow, and contextual signals around the same asset, then make them easier to compare in one view. The channel row carries the engineering depth for buyers who need it.

Channel 01 · Vibration

The bearing's signature.

Healthy machines carry expected running harmonics. Bearing geometry and RPM tell us where fault-frequency families should land; the warning is when those calculated lines grow, split into shaft-speed sidebands, or change together over time.

  • Inner-race / outer-race / cage defect frequencies (BPFI, BPFO, FTF)
  • Imbalance, misalignment, mechanical looseness
  • Cavitation in pumps and valve trains
  • Gear-mesh sidebands and tooth-wear harmonics
