Edge Solutions by ITM
Edge Solutions by ITM — Monitor
“We turn measurement into continuous, edge-based monitoring.”
“I need to keep watching continuously.” Three building blocks: turnkey Packaged Solutions, the Edge Node family of wireless sensors, and the platform that turns nodes into answers.
Why ITM
- Analytics at every altitude — on the node, at the edge, and in the cloud; most vendors give you one.
- Wireless retrofit on running plants: ~80% installation-labor reduction, typical payback under a year.
- Patented technology: US 9,927,231 · 10,724,858 · 10,094,660 plus international filings.
- Generic IoT vendors move raw data; ITM moves interpretation — built on 20+ years of knowing what the signal means.

Integration levels — L1 to L5
- L1 Edge Foundation — edge nodes + gateways: measurement without wires.
- L2 + Analytics — on-site compute: answers in seconds, even offline.
- L3 + Insights — dashboards, KPIs, and alarms your operators actually use.
- L4 Plant-Connected — Modbus, OPC UA, historian/PI integration.
- L5 Enterprise-Connected — multi-site fleets, cloud analytics, AI/ML forecasting.
Fouling-directed cleaning economics documented in ITM white papers — $500K+/year on recovery boilers.
A paper mill added dozens of boiler sensors in days, not months — ~80% installation-labor reduction documented.
Start here: every wireless deployment begins as an Edge Foundation (Level 1) — measurement without wires.

Torque-based Edge Insights: ITM iTestSystem Automated Analytics + Binsfeld TT50
In industrial and marine environments, the drivetrain is often the most critical — and least monitored — part of the system. Rotating shafts transferring torque through gearboxes, couplings, and propellers generate enormous forces that, left unmeasured, become the root cause of unexpected failures, unplanned downtime, and costly maintenance cycles. Traditional torque measurement solutions require shaft…

The Business Case for ITM’s Sootblower Intelligent Maintenance and Fouling-Directed Cleaning Solutions Executive Summary Sootblowers are essential for keeping recovery, biomass, and power boilers clean and efficient. However, without proper monitoring and maintenance, they can become hidden sources of steam waste, mechanical failures, and even safety risks. Integrated Test and Measurement (ITM) has developed the…
