Introduction

• Centrifugal Pumps are one of the most commonly
  used pumps for transferring liquids.
• They are easy to deploy and quick to install in
  addition to being cost effective.
• Centrifugal pumps operate by using impellers and
  move fluids using centrifugal force. They are
  ideal for moving liquids with a relatively low
  viscosity that pours like water or light oil.

Problems of Centrifugal Pumps

• Variable flow patterns tend to cause damage
  leading to plant downtime and resultant loss in
  revenue.
• Support staff is notified when the failure has
  already occurred. This leads to poor equipment
  maintenance.
• No data on failure causes and patterns.
• Visibility into real time environment condition
  possible only through Manual operations.

Some additional problems

• New emerging end user markets such as chemical
  and pharmaceutical Industry demand value added
  solutions as they are extremely competitive.
• Centrifugal Pumps being used in European Markets
  always need to comply with IE3 standards during
  operation. This compliance is possible only with
  real time monitoring.

IIoT based Monitoring.

• IIoT based monitoring allows
• Real Time Condition based monitoring so that
  important parameters such as temperature,
  presence of chemicals/gases, vapor, liquid
  volume, wear and tear, vibrations, current flow
  and more can be monitored.
• Predictive Maintenance can be performed whenever
  IIoT platform indicates breach of accepted
  standards.

Technology Solution

• The IIoT platforms consists of
• Sensors All data collected from once received by
  the network Coordinator from sensors is
  transferred to the gateway from where through
  GPRS Signals it is then brought to Real Time
  Information System or RIMS.
• Real Time Information Systems RIMS comprises of
  the server part and the User Interface section.
• Server Section The Router, Knowledge Base, Data
  Warehouse are all part of the Server section.
  This is where the data gets processed and sorted.
• UI Section The User Interface section is finally
  where all stakeholders can access the relevant
  data over mobile apps, Web app and more.

Benefits of IIoT based Monitoring of Centrifugal
Pumps

• Competitive edge through condition-based
  monitoring Manufacturers can know whether their
  pumps are operating within the expected
  thresholds and their real time performance. This
  helps them provide accurate support for better
  customer service leading to brand Reputation.
• Predictive and Real-time Downtime Alerts It is
  possible to get predictive and real-time alerts
  if vital operating parameters of the pump have
  breached thresholds or if a failure has occurred.
  They can gather and analyze this data for
  enhanced product development.
• Cost Effective, efficient solutions The end user
  of the pump receives a cost-effective solution as
  it is now possible for them to monitor energy
  consumption and ensure that the pump is
  functioning in compliance to any specific
  requirement such as the European motor and pump
  efficiency regulation. It also lets them track
  excessive energy consumption thus saving energy
  costs
