How KirloSmart Has Proved to be a Vital Technology During the Covid-19 Lockdown

Imagine having access to all the parameters of your pumps on your smartphone or iPad, without having to leave the comfort of your living room. Kirloskar has made this possible by designing “KirloSmart”, the first-of-its-kind software solution for remotely monitoring the parameters of a pump. This is a unique application of the cutting-edge Internet-of-Things (IoT) technology to augment your conventional pumping system and has given birth to a new generation of IoT pumps. Besides ensuring comfort and ease of monitoring, KirloSmart has a number of operational benefits that makes it an outstanding software solution for your pumping system.

With continuous real-time data streaming from the pumps, it is easy to prevent breakdown, especially in those systems where the pumps installed are very crucial and any breakdown could hamper the operations of the facility or increase the electricity bills.

Once KirloSmart is installed on your device, your new ‘smart pumps’ won’t need the traditional SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system to monitor them. Also, there will be no need to employ any additional manpower to check and maintain the pumps on a regular basis. This can significantly reduce the running expenses of your facility and account for enhanced operational efficiency.

However, the most path-breaking benefit of KirloSmart is predictive analysis for quick diagnostics and resolution. Sudden breakdown of the pumps can be disrupted as well as costly, but anticipating its incidence can enable the user to keep spares ready to avoid prolonged downtime. Unplanned breakdowns may bring critical production processes to a halt, but this can be prevented if accurate real-time data is available. KirloSmart also provides daily updates related to the energy and water consumption of the pumps, ensuring peak efficiency at all times.

The software is capable of monitoring the following pump parameters remotely:

  • Flow
  • Pressure
  • Power
  • Voltage
  • Current
  • Frequency
  • Power Factor
  • Pump and Motor Bearing Vibrations
  • Pump and Motor Bearing Temperature
  • Motor winding temperature
  • Pump run hours 

KirloSmart proved to be a path-breaking technology especially during the Covid-19 lockdown. Its users didn’t need to go out to monitor the condition of their pump and were able to remotely and wirelessly monitor the pump from their smart devices. They would receive preventive and predictive maintenance alerts, spare notifications and analysis based on the historical trend. This technology has revolutionized monitoring and diagnostics, and has become the single most transformative force behind the modern pumps of today!
