The Revolutionary Valve Rotation Monitoring System

VaRoM is a Unique Patented invention, First in the World that can monitor the Valve Rotation conditions of Internal Combustion Engines used in many power plants and marine industry. VaRoM is a plug-and-play monitoring system that tracks valve rotation and temperature in real-time. With advanced sensor technology, it prevents valve failure and reduces downtime and maintenance costs.

Get VaRoM for Indispensible Engine Safety and Peace of Mind

Conventional sensor technology cannot be used inside the engine on moving parts. VaRoM is the first product that introduces batteryless and wireless sensor solution and can be installed inside the engine. No cables or power source is needed. Operators can monitor and follow each valve’s real time data on SCADA, and in case of any indication of valve seizure, pre-alarm or shutdown alarms will save the engine components on time.

Enable Live Engine Insight by VaRoM

VaRoM will make a great contribution to the digitalization of the engine control and operating system by providing; Valve Rotation Speed (RPM) and Temperature information of the valves, which are one of the most challenging parts to reach and most critical moving parts of the engine.

A Preventive, Predictive and Superior
Technological Approach

Valve Rotation Monitoring for reciprocating Diesel/HFO/Gas (Bio, NG) Engines. In conventional engine system all sensors are connected to outer parts of the engine components and coupled with cables for power and signalization. It was not possible to place sensors inside the engine, or on moving parts because of cable connections or explosive risks. VaRoM, is the first solution to be installed on the Inlet and Exhaust Valves of engines, and provides vital data about the valve rotation and temperature. Thus, operators can follow the valve conditions and apply preventive and protective maintenance against Valve Break Failures. Valve Break Failures are very common failures in reciprocating engines and one single valve failure can cause millions to recover the engine.

No More Valve Failure

Rudimentary visual valve rotation checks with 2 technical staff with experienced eye and ear was the only diagnostic method till VaRoM. This methods takes 2 hours for a 18 cylinder engine. By means of VaRoM, 7/24 real time monitoring of valve rotation is possible without opening any covers.

Traditional Way Of Valve Rotation Check

VaRoM, is the first solution to be installed on the inlet and exhaust valves of Engines and provides vital data about the valve rotation and temperature. Thus, operators can follow the valve conditions and apply preventive and protective maintenance against valve break failures which are very common failures in reciprocating engines and one single valve failure can cause millions to recover the engine.

VaRoM is a Valve Rotation Monitoring system designed for reciprocating Diesel, HFO, Gas (Bio, NG) Engines. It is a patented technology that provides continuous, reliable, and safe monitoring of the valve rotation and temperature conditions of engines. VaRoM is an innovative product, provides a vital data for Diesel/HFO Engines which has never been monitored before.
Valve Seizure or Valve Break Failure is one of the catastrophic incidents that frequently happens in Diesel/HFO Engines due to bad combustion deposits and corrosion on valve stem and guides and result in very expensive property damages like cylinder head, piston, connecting rod, liner, and turbocharger. Rehabilitation and repair works will take too much time, effort and costs.VaRoM will minimize this risk by enabling 7/24 monitoring of valve rotation and temperature. Conventional sensor technology cannot be used inside the engine, and on moving parts, due to harsh working environment. VaRoM is the first product introduces batteryless and wireless sensor solution and can be installed inside the engine. No cables or power source is needed, because VaRoM generates its own power by energy harvesting from vibration of the valves. And transmits the collected data via wireless communication protocols. Operators can monitor and follow each valve’s real time data on SCADA, and in case of any indication of valve seizure, pre-alarm or shutdown alarms will save the engine components on time. VaRoM can be easily adopted and installed on various engine types and models.
