What is SMART Pump Technology?

Strategic Maintenance And Remote Telemetry

Run your pumps more efficiently, get real-time OEM support and save the project money. That’s SMART.

As the world continues to get “smarter”, more devices are rolling out with smart capabilities that allow products to be quickly interfaced with computers, in addition to phones and tablets. Now, a new category is emerging in the world of pumps and they’re being called smart pumps. A smart pump offers the ability to connect to other devices to both operate the pumps and to receive diagnostic information related to the performance of the pump. Smart pumps also offer the ability to install firmware or software updates for the purpose of improving performance.

New product lines of smart pumps are beginning to replace older pump systems around the world, owing to their ability to help extend the lifetime of the entire pump system through alerts and preventative maintenance. Smart pumps can achieve these sought-after performance metrics by utilizing a series of sensors that record critical data points which are sent back to the pump operator and the control computer. These sensors are used to relay any issues that may be happening with the pump or its performance. Many sensors and options can be monitored and activated right from a tablet or smartphone which is connected to the pump via Bluetooth.

This new smart pump technology is being distributed to residential and commercial markets and offers much more powerful features than that of the older model high-efficiency pumps. The combination of delicate sensors, bi-directional connectivity (i.e. Bluetooth, programming inputs and outputs), innovative pump control functions, and software updates are the features that make a pump “smart”.

The smart pump allows an array of industry-standard control monitoring, including:

• Seal fluid pressure and temperature
• Bearing temperature
• Rotor RPM
• Hydraulic pressure differential
• Electric motor amp monitoring
• Orientation sensor
• Wireless Acoustic Slurry Flow Meter with Digital Display

What is SCADA?

Olhar mais profundo para controles inteligentes

O sistema de bombeamento inteligente de dragagem Eddy Pump é completamente operado e monitorado. Ao conectar o sistema de controle embarcado de dragagem com os sistemas SCADA existentes, a dragagem é capaz de uma operação não tripulada completa e permite menos tempo de inatividade associado à falha do equipamento. Muitos modos de manutenção comuns são realizados de forma autônoma durante a operação de dragagem.

O sistema de controle de dragagem permite que todas as funções da dragagem sejam operadas e monitoradas através de sistemas tradicionais de SCADA. O sistema de dragagem incorpora um grande grau de aprendizado de máquina que permite que o sistema de dragagem se auto tune para uma operação ideal em ambientes e materiais variados sejam removidos. A visão da máquina e o GPS de precisão facilitam a melhor operação de dragagem e a segurança das máquinas em relação à dos operadores humanos experientes.

Os controles de dragagem sintonizam para uma operação suave e eficiente de máquinas e cargas típicas, tais como;

• Guinchos de amarração para movimento de dragagem
• Levantando guincho para levantar e diminuir o boom da dragagem
• Controle RPM da bomba para o fluxo e pressão ideal do gasoduto
• Controle do agitador da bomba para a melhor mistura de material (misturadores, cortador, etc)
• Controle da bomba de reforço de dragagem para maximizar uma determinada capacidade de bombas de reforço para estabilizar a pressão do gasoduto necessária para a troca de materiais em determinadas localizações do gasoduto.

Todos os dados de status e sensor pertinentes são registrados e transmitidos de volta aos sistemas SCADA existentes para entradas de operação, monitoramento de alarme e cronograma de manutenção. Isso reduz significativamente o tempo de inatividade para falha do equipamento, notificando anormalidades antes da falha completa.

Alguns dos sensores principais monitorados incluem:

• Pressão da bomba e temperatura para comparar com o desempenho do RPM da bomba e do gasoduto para monitorar a saúde da bomba
• Temperatura do selo da bomba e pressão para comparar com as horas de vedação para monitorar a saúde do selo
• Dinâmica de dragagem para monitorar o desempenho do sistema de controle de guinchos
• Níveis de som em frequências e locais específicos para facilitar uma possível falha no equipamento inicial.
• Cargas do motor em comparação com a saída da bomba para proteger para modos de falha eletromecânica-hidráulica.

The EDDY Smart Pump

EDDY Pump Corporation introduces the newest development in pump technology, the Smart Pump. This pump includes the smart capability of monitoring all critical functions and variables in any pump or dredging application. These sensors are used to virtually eliminate downtime caused by operator error or equipment malfunction while also optimizing pump and dredge performance.

Eddy Smart Pump Technology will be optionally equipped with radios to enable connections through Bluetooth, WiFi, 4G, and satellite. The smart pump controller can be used as a simple pump controller or can be easily connected to larger systems such as a submersible dredge or surface dredge, enabling easy integration of all capabilities and sensors into more complex systems.

Smart Pump Benefits

The primary cause of pump and dredge downtime is faulty components and incorrectly used equipment. The Eddy Smart Pump controller protects the pump from most, if not all, possible failure conditions, even in an intentional and unattended state. As more smart pumps are put to use, the EDDY Smart Pump will be able to:

Improve OEM Service and Pump Maintenance: By using integrated hardware and sensors installed on the pumps, we can now have a direct look at the performance of deployed pumps. With the ability to monitor performance over time, service and pump maintenance support can be more proactive, as a result, extending the life of the pump.

Further product innovation: With smart pump technology, we can see how the end-user is operating the pump in real-time. Manufacturers can, in turn, use this data to improve features of the pump or reduce manufacturing costs for the next generation of products.

Optional Wireless Acoustical Slurry Flow Meter: With our innovative acoustical flow meter, you can wirelessly attach the device to any size slurry hose or pipeline from 1-inch to 24-inches. The meter measures the flow of liquid or slurry in real-time, allowing operators to fully optimize the use of the pump. In addition, installation takes less than an hour and comes with a digital display that can be mounted anywhere. The display will allow the pump operator to visually see real-time flow rates and adjust as needed to give maximum versatility.

Ultimately, historical and live telemetry of all pump and dredge pumps will be able to be viewed in real-time online. The most powerful feature, second to active pump protection, will be the ability to develop empirical pump performance metrics from all running systems which will greatly improve and simplify system designs for future products.

In summary, the smart pump is poised to be an absolute game-changer in the world of industrial pumps. Reduced downtime and higher production rates are entirely possible due to the smart pump’s unique ability to monitor a number of variables based on the conditions of the project.
