DOWNERS GROVE, Ill.,
May 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/
-- Wilden, part of PSG, a Dover (NYSE: DOV) company, and
a worldwide leader in specialty pumps, today announced the
introduction of the Wilden SafeGuard™, the industry's first
air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pump Internet of Things (IoT)
enabled remote performance monitoring and alert system.
No matter how comprehensive the maintenance schedule, pump
breakdowns and compromised performance are always possible, making
it imperative for operators of manufacturing facilities to be
familiar with the performance of their AODD pumps. Many
pump-performance concerns, including the high cost of downtime,
repairs, lost product and product cleanup, can be managed through
the advanced monitoring of AODD pumps.
The Wilden SafeGuard all-inclusive pump-monitoring system
remotely tracks, records and alerts customers of key performance
indicators, such as leak detection, stroke rate and total stroke
count of AODD pumps during operation. It provides real-time alerts
via SMS or email to indicate any noteworthy change in operations
that may be a precursor to or indicators of component failure. To
further enhance preventative maintenance plans, Wilden SafeGuard
also provides the ability to store maintenance records, helping to
identify and monitor patterns. The Wilden SafeGuard solution has
been designed to monitor a single pump or a fleet of AODD pumps
within one dedicated software system.
The connected Wilden SafeGuard system is composed of a single
battery-powered sensor mounted directly onto the pump. This sensor
collects and analyzes pump-performance data in real-time and
transmits it to a central gateway for encryption and transmission
to the Cloud. Once stored on the Cloud, real-time and historic
operational information can be accessed by the user anywhere in the
world through a secure smartphone app or online portal.
