Abstract: A system and method for monitoring the operating condition of a wheelset on a railcar comprising a sealed unit mounted on or near a wheelset of the railcar for collecting data from the wheelset and performing AI analyses on the collected data to determine the operational condition and predict failure modes for the wheelset. Results are communicated off-railcar wirelessly via one or more of several different methods.

Abstract: In one aspect, a mobile railway asset monitoring apparatus is provided that includes a magnetometer and a processor. The magnetometer is configured to detect a magnetic field produced by the earth and influenced by components of the mobile railway asset. The magnetometer is operable to detect a change in the magnetic field caused by relative movement of the components of the mobile railway asset. The processor is operatively connected to the magnetometer and configured to determine a parameter of the mobile railway asset based at least in part upon the change in the magnetic field caused by the relative movement of the components.

Abstract: An intrinsically safe equipment condition monitoring system is provided. The system includes at least one intrinsically safe local data acquisition unit for acquiring condition information for at least one piece of equipment. The local data acquisition unit includes a data transmitter for wirelessly transmitting the acquired condition information. A remote data receiving unit is provided for receiving the condition information for the piece of equipment.
