Micro Station Anaylser

The Micro-SA provides centralized monitoring, management, and analysis for a pump system consisting of up to 12 pumps in parallel. Serving as an IoT edge device, it oversees multiple Micro-PM pump units, integrating via Modbus TCP protocol. There are multiple operation modes, to suit client cybersecurity protocols. Choose between Local only, Local-Cloud, and Cloud only. The local operation mode can be augmented with an HMI. For remote connectivity, the Internet version utilizes wired, cellular, or satellite communication to transmit data to a cloud for advanced processing and analysis.

Benefits:

Detect potential savings in energy costs of typically 10 – 30%.
Act on data to program maintenance interventions months ahead.
Reduce mechanical deterioration by flagging when pumps are running out of acceptable operational ranges.
Constant access to pump performance indicators

Key features and functionalities:

The Micro-SA is an advanced analytics tool that provides actionable insights into existing PLC/SCADA systems, or serves as a standalone interface for stations where PLC/SCADA is unavailable.
Local IoT Device: When paired with an HMI, the Micro-SA transforms into a locally advanced monitoring unit, providing easy access to data analytics and the status of all connected MicroPM units.
Data Collection and Integration: It aggregates data from multiple MicroPM pump units into a single database, simplifying successive integrations with PLC/SCADA systems.
Embedded Web Pages: Password-protected web pages allow access to detailed data analytics and status information for each Micro-PM unit. These can be accessed locally or remotely via network-enabled devices like tablets or phones, ensuring flexibility and accessibility.
Functionality: Beyond monitoring, the Micro-SA supports logging, reporting, and calculating operational parameters at the station level. It also includes a scheduler for optimizing pump usage based on station demand and cost considerations.
Maintenance and Decision Support: Provides comparison functionalities against manufacturers or reference data, aiding in decisions related to pump maintenance, refurbishment, or replacement.
Expandability: It is designed to accommodate installations of varying sizes, from a few pumps to potentially many, without practical limits.
Optional accelerometers and sensors can be added to monitor the vibration of pumps connected to it, enhancing its operational versatility.
Optional motor condition monitoring (Faraday Predictive S200).
