Industrial Machine Monitor Kit with Arduino Mega + Relay
Industrial Machine Monitor Kit — Build a Real-Time Motor Health Alarm System with Arduino Mega
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
You will assemble a multi-sensor monitor that reads current, vibration, and dual-point temperature from a motor, displays real-time graphs on a TFT screen, logs time-stamped data to an SD card, and triggers a relay alarm when anomalies are detected. This kit turns a standard Arduino Mega into a factory-grade diagnostic tool, ready for Smart India Hackathon prototypes, B.Tech final-year projects, or industrial IoT experimentation.
What You'll Build
You'll integrate an ACS712 current sensor, an ADXL345 accelerometer, and two DS18B20 temperature probes onto proto boards and enclose everything inside a DIN rail enclosure. The system continuously monitors motor health and raises a physical alert via the relay module if parameters deviate from safe thresholds. Every data point is saved with an RTC timestamp, and the TFT screen gives you a live dashboard you can customize further.
What You'll Learn
- Calibrating the ACS712 20A sensor for accurate RMS current measurement on AC/DC motors
- Processing 3-axis ADXL345 vibration data for FFT-based fault detection signatures
- Reading multiple DS18B20 probes on a single OneWire bus and profiling thermal drift
- Configuring the DS3231 RTC to time-stamp every log entry for forensic analysis
- Driving a 2.4-inch TFT ILI9341 to render real-time graphs and alarm status
- Writing conditional logic for the 5V relay to act as a panic switch or warning siren

Who This Kit Is For
This kit is built for B.Tech ECE and EEE students developing predictive maintenance systems for their major projects, and for teams at Smart India Hackathon who need a field-ready industrial monitor without weeks of part sourcing. It also suits ATL Tinkering Lab mentors and researchers at IIT, NIT, VIT, or BITS Pilani setting up motor health experiments in a controlled environment. If you’ve outgrown basic Arduino kits and want something that mimics a real shop-floor asset monitor, this is your next step.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code on the box to launch the AI companion trained on this project’s wiring, code, and troubleshooting. If you prefer a human, drop us a WhatsApp message and our team will walk you through the issue.
Can this monitor any motor up to 20A?
The ACS712 20A module can measure AC or DC currents up to 20 amperes. For motors within this range, the kit works out of the box; for higher loads, you’d need an external CT but the logic remains the same.
Does the SD card logging include timestamps?
Yes, the DS3231 RTC provides accurate date and time stamps for every logged data point, even if the monitor is offline for weeks. The data is saved in CSV format for easy import into Excel or Python scripts.
How is the relay alarm configured?
Thresholds for current, vibration, and temperature are set in the Arduino sketch. When any sensor value exceeds its threshold for a user-defined duration, the relay energises — you can wire it to a siren, a contactor, or a dashboard warning light.
