Predictive maintenance for critical pump infrastructure
Wireless, adhesive-mount sensors monitor vibration, temperature, and current draw on your pumps around the clock — built for industrial facilities and municipal water systems across Northwest Indiana.
The cost of not knowing
Every one of these failure modes develops gradually — days or weeks of slowly worsening vibration, heat, or current draw before a pump actually goes down. Without continuous monitoring, that window passes unnoticed, and what could have been a scheduled repair becomes an emergency call, a contractor markup, and unplanned downtime.
Microscopic pitting builds slowly, raising vibration signatures long before any audible sign of trouble.
Grease breakdown increases friction and heat, accelerating wear on every component downstream.
Grit and debris entering the housing show up as irregular vibration patterns well before visible damage.
Even slight misalignment creates a distinct vibration frequency — one of the earliest and most detectable warning signs.
A pump drawing more amperage than its baseline to achieve the same output is fighting internal resistance — bearing drag, impeller wear, or cavitation. That delta is a measurable early warning and a data point your team can use to evaluate repair versus replacement on your own terms.
How pulse works
01
A wireless vibration and temperature sensor bonds directly to the bearing housing. No wiring, no drilling, no process interruption — install takes minutes per pump.
02
The sensor streams vibration, temperature, and current draw continuously, establishing a healthy baseline signature unique to your equipment. Any drift from that baseline is captured in real time.
03
The moment a reading drifts from baseline, your team is notified — days or weeks before the issue becomes a failure.
A pump drawing more amperage than its baseline to achieve the same output is fighting internal resistance — bearing drag, a worn impeller, cavitation, or early mechanical breakdown. We track that delta continuously. When it crosses a threshold your team defines, you have an objective, data-backed reference point for your repair-versus-replacement decision. No guesswork. No vendor pressure. Just the number.
Built for NWI's infrastructure
For manufacturing plants and processing facilities, unplanned downtime means halted lines and missed output. Continuous monitoring extends equipment life and turns surprise failures into scheduled maintenance.
For water and wastewater systems, a lift station failure is a service interruption to residents. Pulse gives utility teams the early warning needed to protect continuity of service and plan maintenance budgets with confidence.
