CoRoM Wärtsilä 50 Probe
Zero out thermal latency and redefine engine safety in a batteryless world with probe technology that makes direct contact with the hard-to-reach deep bearing points of Wärtsilä 50 engines. Meet the world's most precise bearing monitoring system.
Developed for Wärtsilä 50 engines, CoRoM-WR50P is the world's first wireless and batteryless real-time precise bearing sensor, with a probe architecture penetrating deep bearing channels.
Generates its own electricity from the engine's natural vibration with patented technology. An autonomous protective shield with no battery explosion risks, cabling requirements, or maintenance needs.
Captures heat transfer in seconds thanks to its precise probe tip. Notices metal-to-bearing contact long before smoke forms, protecting the crankshaft from astronomical damages.
Instantly transmits collected data over BLE to the Wi-GaTe system and from there to SCADA, HMI, or ESCOM-es Dashboard. It is the most critical link of digital transformation.
Deep Bearing Failures
Measuring bearing metal temperature from the surface in the complex crankcase architecture of Wärtsilä 50 engines may give late results due to thermal inertia. This delay means bearing seizure can grow within seconds.
Invisibility of Devastating Damage
Conventional oil mist detectors only trigger after smoke has covered every part of the engine. At this stage, the crankshaft is already damaged, and trying to find which cylinder failed takes hours.
Direct Intervention with CoRoM Probe
CoRoM-WR50P captures heat without delay using its probe tip that makes direct contact with the bearing metal. Eliminating reactive approaches, it saves the critical time required to protect your engine before damage occurs.
Maximum Precision, Fast Installation
CoRoM-WR50P is mounted within minutes with its design fully compatible with the Wärtsilä 50 connecting rod structure. The probe architecture penetrates the most sensitive region of the bearing, allowing real-time monitoring.
Wireless and Maintenance-Free Revolution
It operates with a 'plug-and-forget' principle on moving parts where routing cables is mechanically impossible, utilizing its wireless & batteryless structure to drop assembly costs to zero.
Data-Driven Maintenance Strategies
CoRoM-WR50P is the most reliable data source when creating the digital twin of your Wärtsilä 50 engines. Report the bearing health of the entire fleet instantaneously and historically through the ESCOM-es Dashboard.

Frequently Asked Questions
When bearing damage begins in Wärtsilä 50 engines, thermal runaway causes the bearing to weld to the crankshaft in seconds. CoRoM-WR50P, with its probe-type tip measuring directly from the bearing metal and the deepest point, saves the operator crucial seconds that OMD systems cannot see; it protects the crankshaft from heavy damage.
While standard sensors measure heat on the metal surface, the WR50P version features a probe that enters the bearing channel. This structure eliminates 'inertia' in thermal conduction, capturing temperature rise instantly at the innermost point of the metal. This is the highest level of precision.
Absolutely. Our sensor converts the natural vibration of the Wärtsilä engine into energy using patented 'Energy Harvesting' technology. This architecture requiring no battery changes zeroes out the risk of batteries leaking or losing performance at high temperatures, offering an unlimited operational life.
No. Thanks to the custom connecting rod design and probe mounting kit, no drilling, threading, or structural modifications are made to the engine. This preserves the engine's original warranty, and the system is installed within minutes under the 'plug-and-forget' principle.
Yes. When analyzing the bearing characteristics of Wärtsilä 50 engines, the 1-second data flow offers a critical safety margin. Also, because the probe architecture captures heat at the source, it provides a much faster response time compared to surface sensors.
CoRoM-WR50P is not just an alarm device but a high-precision data terminal. It continuously records the thermal trends of bearings. With analyses performed on the ESCOM-es Dashboard, it reports which bearing needs overhaul, preventing unnecessary downtime.
Grinding or renewing a Wärtsilä crankshaft is a million-dollar operation. The CoRoM investment for the entire system is about one percent of this damage. The financial value saved by a single early warning allows the system to amortize its cost repeatedly (ROI).
Our sensor has an IP68 full sealing class and is designed to operate continuously under a hot oil bath. It is CE and ATEX compliant.
Generally no. Our custom system compatible with the Wärtsilä 50 series connecting rod structure is installed in minutes under the 'Plug & Forget' principle without damaging the engine.
