Wilden® SafeGuard™ Remote Performance Monitoring and Alert System

The Wilden® SafeGuard™ is the industry’s first AODD Internet of Things (IoT) enabled remote performance monitoring and alert solution. It is a true game-changer in optimizing AODD pump performance, reliability, cost of operation and maintenance. SafeGuard is an all-inclusive monitoring system that tracks, records and alerts customers to key AODD pump performance indicators at all times of operation via continuous Cloud connectivity as a way to address and prevent operational shortcomings that can result in costly pump failures.

Why Wilden SafeGuard™?

Why is pump monitoring so important?

Unexpected pump failures can be devastating for an operation, and could result in much larger issues, including the high cost of downtime, repairs, lost product and product cleanup. This makes monitoring and anticipating potential AODD failure conditions a critical consideration for facility operators.

Unexpected Pump Failure

Costly Downtime
Lost Revenue
Overtime
Expedited Parts/Freight

Real-World Example

A pump unexpectedly fails, maintenance is out of inventory and the pump is out of service longer than expected.

Wilden SafeGuard Solution

Wilden SafeGuard collects data of pump performance over time, including maintenance records, allowing the user to create robust preventative maintenance plans and anticipate need for replacement parts.

Product Leakage

Safety Hazard
Product Loss and Recalls
Cleanup Costs
Costly Batch Rework

Real-World Example

A pump in a remote area of the plant fails, emptying an entire tank of finished product on the floor without being noticed.

Wilden SafeGuard Solution

Real-time monitoring and leak alert for immediate response, limiting product loss and potential cleanup costs.

Lost Revenue

Downtime
Costly Batch Rework
Product Recalls
Limited Production

Real-World Example

A pump is unknowingly performing below expectations due to other system issues, but its not known until a process batch is complete and the final product is found to be outside of spec, requiring rework.

Wilden SafeGuard Solution

Wilden SafeGuard makes it easy for the user to set alerts for pumps operating outside of the “normal” operating conditions.

Limited Operation Visibility

On-site 24/7
Missed Opportunities for Process Improvement
Inaccurate Preventative Maintenance Plan

Real-World Example

A preventative maintenance plan exists for a plant to service pumps every 6 months, but some pumps have far more life and others still fail prematurely.

Wilden SafeGuard Solution

Wilden SafeGuard provides unprecedented information about diaphragm life, allowing preventative maintenance plans to be more accurate and more efficient at protecting your people, product and process.

How It Works

Wilden SafeGuard is designed to monitor Wilden AODD pumps’ health and performance. It is composed of a single battery-powered sensor (Edge Device) mounted directly onto the pump which communicates to a sensor reader (Gateway Node). The Gateway Node, which can connect up to 10 Edge Devices/Pumps, operates as an encryption router, securely transmitting the data from all pumps 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 an online portal.

Features and Benefits

The design and operation of the SafeGuard system allows for complete 24/7 real-time monitoring and alerts related to a number of critical performance parameters for the pump (diaphragms, balls, seats). These readings can show the user such things as:

Leak detection to indicate diaphragm leaks and failures, preventing product loss and safety hazards
Stroke rates to monitor changes to highlight performance abnormalities
Stroke count for batching and setting maintenance schedules
Real-time alerts via SMS or email to indicate any noteworthy change in operation that may be a precursor to pump or component failure
Plug-and-play design for easy set up and easily retrofittable to current installations
Maintenance records that can indicate patterns and help manage preventative maintenance plans

User Interface

Wilden AODD pumps’ health and performance is displayed and summarized on the Wilden SafeGuard User Interface service where you can view the status of your whole fleet of connected pumps down to the details of a single pump. Capabilities include:

Fleet Management View
Pump Dashboard
Review Maintenance and Operation History
Color Code Indicators of Status
Customizable Parameters, Pump Naming, Users, and Alerts
