# Condition monitoring using SICK SIG350

This article presents an illustrative example demonstrating the measurement of temperature and vibrations using the MPB10 sensor and SIG350 from Sick Sensor Intelligence.

## IO-Link masters are getting SICK! <a href="#el_1690237193298_340" id="el_1690237193298_340"></a>

Check out SIG350 (EtherCAT version) from Sick Sensor Intelligence, which can not only send the data via EtherCAT but also supports OPC UA, API, and MQTT.&#x20;

This diagram illustrates the process of observing data from the MPB10 condition monitoring sensor on the dashboard through the utilization of EtherCAT and EoE.&#x20;

Our setup involves the implementation of the **ctrlX CORE** as an **EtherCAT** master. The data can be retrieved from the **ctrlX CORE** either through the **ctrlX Data Layer** or directly from the **SIG350** using **OPC UA** and **API** over 👉[**EoE**](https://support.sick.com/sick-knowledgebase/article/?code=KA-02982).&#x20;

## **Why measure Temperature and Vibration from motors?**&#x20;

* Accurate temperature and vibration measurement in motors is crucial for preventive maintenance.&#x20;
* Elevated temperatures can indicate potential failures, while abnormal vibrations signal misalignments or mechanical issues.&#x20;
* Timely detection enhances motor lifespan, minimizes downtime, and ensures operational efficiency, reducing costly repairs and production interruptions.
