Interface Module for Arranging in or on a Motor

Abstract

Temperature or vibration sensors (14) are often used, in addition to a transmitter (13), to monitor a motor (12). The aim of the invention is to simplify the transmission of the sensor signals of a plurality of sensor devices (13,14) mounted in or on a motor (12). To this end, an interface module (15) is mounted in or on a motor (12), especially in or on an electric motor, said interface module comprising a processing device for receiving and processing a first sensor signal emitted by a first sensor component (13). The first sensor component (13) is embodied in such a way as to detect a first physical variable and to emit the first sensor signal, and the processing device is embodied in such a way as to additionally receive and process a second sensor signal emitted by a second sensor component (14). The second sensor component (14) is used to detect a second physical variable and to emit the second sensor signal.
