World-class pumping system monitoring for you and your customers

Enable smarter performance through the system life cycleAs a pioneer in the use of web-based technologies, Schneider Electric

facilitates the implementation of strategies based on Industry 4.0,

the Internet of Things, and cloud computing. MachineStruxure provides

easy-to-implement tools for collecting real-time data as well as software that

helps optimise system performance.

EASY INTEGRATION OF SYSTEMS Open and flexible, architectures based on MachineStruxure can be easily integrated through simple

communication tools into larger systems, such as building or manufacturing management systems.

Facilitating communication across systems, platforms, and solutions from various manufacturers,

MachineStruxure enables a comprehensive approach to facility management.

REMOTE ACCESS AND CONTROLWith a web-based monitoring application provided by MachineStruxure, you can take pumping

management system to a new level. This solution enables remote viewing and analysing machine

data at any time and place, through web-connected devices such as smartphones or laptops.

The embedded web-server enables users to gather detailed, real-time information on pumping

system performance, including energy consumption, productivity, and usage statistics.

By providing the complete view of system operations, it helps allocate resources more efficiently

and boost pumping system capacity.

CASE STUDY: ATFAB, TENNESSEE

Challenge

Design an automated solution for a natural gas production company

enabling remote monitoring and access to each well site and improving

efficiency of extraction, service, and maintenance.

Solution

An automated pump jack solution with the Modicon™ programmable logic

controller (PLC), Altivar™ variable frequency drive (VFD), Magelis™ human

machine interface (HMI) and Modbus open communication protocol.

Results

• Time savings, as 80 wells are now monitored remotely

• Significant energy savings

• More efficient extraction process

In addition, comprehensive software libraries based on ready-to-use Application Function Blocks

allow you to easily configure and implement pumping-specific functions.

PUMPING APPLICATION FUNCTION BLOCKS

Pump stage and de-stage Switching between pumps to maintain the required pressure

Booster working mode Electing the best working mode for the booster in a single- or multi-drive system

PID For avoiding damping to ensure smooth system operation

Friction loss compensation Compensating friction lost by adapting the pressure setpoint to the number of pumps or the flow value

Cavitation protectionExtending the operating life of the pump by preventing cavitation

Auxiliary pump Controlling the auxiliary pump pressure and detecting conditions when it needs to be operated

Reduceengineering time of pumping systems by using complete project templates

EFFICIENT

Deliver efficient solutions for a sustainable businessEfficient pumping systems, engineered with MachineStruxure solutions,

can help your customers improve their overall business performance.

Smart functionalities, embedded at every stage of the engineering process,

enable more efficient use of energy and resources per product, and

enhanced pumping system operation.

USE SMART ENGINEERING STRATEGIES TO SHORTEN TIME-TO-MARKETTake advantage of Tested, Validated, and Documented Architectures (TVDAs), pre-developed

architectures provided by Schneider Electric, to design and build pumping control systems faster

and more efficiently.

Tested in all available configurations by experts, TVDAs ensure full compatibility of hardware and

provide complete user guides with detailed instructions for installation. Open and flexible, the

architectures help optimise machine control for diverse needs and applications.

CASE STUDY: ROMEO ENGINEERING, INC., TEXAS

Challenge

Design automated solution for a leading oil services company that is

smaller, less costly, and more energy-efficient than a variable displacement

piston pump.

Solution

An automated solution for a fixed displacement vane pump - utilizing

an Altivar variable frequency drive (VFD), Modicon programmable logic

controller (PLC) and pressure transducers — that changes pressure by

changing the RPM of the motor.

Results

The fixed displacement vane pumps consumed only 12 percent of the

original power use at the maximum pressure, bringing 88 percent savings.

BUILD ADVANCED ENERGY MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS With energy-efficient solutions for pumping applications provided by MachineStruxure you can meet

efficiency regulations easily and reduce energy costs.

Monitor power use with power meters and compare acquired data with machine energy dashboard

to identify potential savings
