A remote pump station benefits from both mechanical-condition intelligence and dependable field I/O. PyXis monitors triaxial vibration and temperature at the rotating asset, while Titania acquires run, trip, level, pressure-switch and pulse signals and can drive local indication or approved auxiliary outputs.
Field arrangement
Mount PyXis on the motor or pump bearing housing. Connect dry contacts, PNP/NPN sensors and pulse signals to Titania according to the documented input mode. Use Titania outputs for stack lights, sirens or non-safety auxiliary loads within the electrical limits.
Local and supervisory functions
- Read vibration severity, harmonics, temperature and prognostic values from PyXis.
- Read pump status, counts, frequency and switch states from Titania.
- Use local alarm annunciation or simple interlocks where approved.
- Forward consolidated data through the station PLC, RTU or gateway to central SCADA.
Failure behaviour
Configure Titania power-up and communications-loss safe values from the approved process response. Retain local visibility when the upstream network is unavailable. Treat a loss of condition data as an explicit data-quality alarm rather than a healthy state.
Maintenance workflow
Combine mechanical trend, operating hours, starts, trips and process condition in the CMMS. This gives maintenance teams a more complete basis for prioritising inspection, bearing work, alignment, cleaning and hydraulic investigation.
