Pump Monitoring from Specialists

KSB Guard: Pump monitoring as a digital solution

Prevent malfunctions and downtimes using the cloud-based monitoring system KSB Guard: helping you keep track of your pumps at all times.

Comprehensive monitoring of your pumps – any time, anywhere

On the one hand, smooth running is essential for your system. But on the other, you want to minimise outlay for system monitoring and maintenance. KSB Guard lets you achieve both. Keep an eye on all of your pumps’ data without needing to be on site.

KSB Guard monitors the vibration and temperature values of your pump at regular intervals and notifies you immediately of any deviations. This allows you to fix problems before more substantial damage occurs. KSB Guard also helps you schedule maintenance jobs based on specific measurement data.

What is more, KSB Guard saves resources right from its installation: the sensor unit is easy to install and pumps are quickly registered.

Smart solution for condition monitoring of pumps and other rotating machinery. Sensors on the machinery record measurement data, which is processed in the KSB Cloud. Information on the machinery status can be accessed via mobile phone or computer. Simple retrofitting of the sensor unit for measuring vibrations and temperature during operation of dry-installed pumps and other rotating machinery. Components of the KSB Guard system: sensors, transmission unit and KSB Guard Gateway. For dry-installed pumps the sensors in the sensor unit and the corresponding transmission and battery unit are comprised in the KSB Guard kit. Access via the KSB Guard web portal www.ksbguard.net (computer) or the KSB Guard app is required to retrieve operating data. Data from up to 40 pumps can be transmitted via one KSB Guard gateway.
