| pump monitoring system

Wilden’s SafeGuard is a pump-monitoring system that remotely tracks, records and alerts customers to key performance indicators, such as leak detection, stroke rate and total stroke count, of AODD pumps during operation. It also provides the ability to store maintenance records to help identify patterns. The connected system is composed of a battery-powered sensor mounted 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.

| AC motors

ABB's AXW 5000 and 5800 large AC motors offer more horsepower per pound than conventional TEFC motors but with a smaller frame size. Other advantages include higher power densities, reduction of noise, constant cooling on variable speed drive applications to extend speed and power ranges, and reductions of heat in the surrounding environment. For harsh, contaminate-filled environments, the AXW is suited for continuous operation due to the consistent cooling of the water jacket surrounding the motor.
