The Intersection of IoT and Pump Monitoring: Kirlosmart Technology

by vemcoblogs -

Pump monitoring has in the past required regular visits, checks and inspections by technicians. This has naturally involved lot of training and labour costs to begin with. Besides, the precision of diagnosing the faults and issues is quite limited. With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology however, pump monitoring has been transformed overnight. VEMC is one of the leading Kirloskar pump distributors based in Mumbai, and in this blog, we tell you how IoT-based Kirlosmart has revolutionised pump monitoring for users at home, office and in factories.

Special features of Kirlosmart

Some outstanding features of Kirlosmart have made it the product of choice for consumers across the board:

  • Real-time data visualisation: 

Kirlosmart comes with an online app and web portal that displays all the pump parameters such as head, voltage, vibration etc. on a user’s dashboard. All the data is received from the pump sensors in real-time and enables the owners to respond to exigencies quickly.

  • Predictive maintenance alerts: 

Kirlosmart acts as an early warning system of sorts. As soon as some parameters are not within the normal range, it raises a predictive maintenance alert. 

  • Remote control: 

With Kirlosmart in place, users no longer have to visit the pump site physically but can control their pumps remotely from the comfort of their home. This reduces the costs of repeatedly visiting the pump site including the labour and training costs.

  • Scalability: 

Kirlosmart is a new technology that has vast potential in pump monitoring and is highly scalable. This means easy monitoring even in bigger organisations.

  • Ease-of-use: 

Kirlosmart has a user-friendly UX/UI which is very navigable, interactive and intuitive. All the information is readily available in the form of graphs and tables. This means no dedicated labour is required to monitor the pump regularly and everything is available at the user’s fingertips.

How Kirlosmart has transformed monitoring

1. Improves pump performance: 

Kirlosmart relies on a constant stream of data flowing in from the pump sensors. The data is then analysed using the software’s data analysis algorithm which presents it in the form of tables and graphs on a user’s smartphone app or laptop. With accurate and timely information at their fingertips, they can take the right measures to improve their pump performance.

2. Predicts maintenance needs: 

As soon as any parameter appears to be out of range, say too much vibration, it is a signal that the pump needs maintenance.

3. Prevents downtime: 

With early fault detection and timely intervention, sudden breakdown of the pumps is prevented. This saves a lot of repair and replacement costs and also the business costs associated with the breakdown.

Kirlosmart is a great leap towards blending IoT technology with pump monitoring.

Importance of High-Quality Fire Panels

by vemcoblogs -

As a business or home-owner, you would appreciate the importance of a fire panel in early detection of an outbreak. Undetected outbreaks can cause immense and irreversible loss of life and property, and a good fire panel can be crucial in preventing this. However, to ensure utmost reliability, you must only choose high-quality fire panels for the safety of your family, employees and property. 

VEMC is the leading Kirloskar fire pump dealer in Mumbai, and in this blog, we tell you why a high-quality fire panel is important.

Types of fire panels

  1. Conventional: These panels use basic technology to detect fire but are still considered quite effective for homes and businesses. They connect sensors and alarms using zone wiring. Sensors are linked in parallel with one or more circuits connected to them.
  1. Addressable: A step ahead of conventional fire panels, the addressable fire panels assign each device an individual address. This enables you to find the exact location of the outbreak in the building.
  2. Intelligent: These are also known as smart fire detection systems. They offer greater flexibility using customer programming of each application and are best suited for accurate and timely fire detection for advanced safety.

What makes a fire panel high-quality?

Fire-panels could be crucial in saving lives and you must only trust the highest quality of component parts. Monitors, flow switches and control valves must be high quality and in good working condition. Only resilient and durable material can withstand the degradation with the passage of time, and provide fool-proof safety during an outbreak. 

Quality can be assessed by certifications that the manufacturers have. The three main standard certifications for fire-panels are provided by LPCB (Loss Prevention Certification Board), UL (Underwriters Laboratories), and VdS (Schadenverhütung GmbH). When deciding to buy a fire panel, look for any of these standards.

Quality however cannot be expected to remain constant. Like all other equipment, fire panels also undergo deterioration with the passage of time, unless maintained regularly and properly. This requires thorough training of the maintenance staff to bring them up-to-date with the latest maintenance practices. Generally speaking, fire panels must be kept clean and visually inspected regularly. VEMC –– a trusted Kirloskar fire pump dealer in Mumbai, can offer more insights on the maintenance of your fire panels.

Evaluating a fire panel system

When buying a fire panel system for your house or factory, you must be mindful of a few factors. In fact, you must have a standard checklist handy to ensure proper evaluation of the fire panels. 

  • Has the fire panel been designed by a reliable company or a qualified professional?
  • Are the equipment and component parts reliable and do they meet quality standards?
  • Is the installation team qualified and experienced enough?
  • Is the fire panel cost effective in terms of the finances and effort required for maintenance in the long run?
