Question

Is it also possible to do predictive maintenance on construction machines, which operates in heady duty conditions (Vibration, noise..)?

    Yes, similar concept is valid also in construction machine. You can for example mount accelerometer/vibration sensor on top of the motor on these equipment, in motors you are usually interested in quite small signals/changes. Traditionally, these are demanding environments with higher background vibrations, for extreme cases we have also 400g accelerometers in st portfolio to detect shocks, H3LIS331DL exact part number. For noise and microphones components, IMP23ABSU is able to measure up to 130 dB SPL (sound pressure level) audible signals with low distortion for analysis and has also very good SNR 64 dB to detect also small audio signal levels.
