// The physics-informed platform

Two ways to look inside your pumps. Built to work together.

Depth where it’s critical, breadth where it counts. No pump in your fleet is left in the dark.

Sentinel
Prescriptive · Physics-Informed Machine Learning

Physics-derived prescriptive intelligence for the pumps you cannot afford to lose.

Best for Moderate-scale, mission-critical assets, comprehensive diagnosis

Accel
Predictive · Physics-Informed Neural Network

Lightweight predictive health assessment across every pump in the fleet. Efficient in handling multiple pump types.

Best for High-scale fleets, complete coverage, rapid transfer learning

SmartBeam Sentinel
SmartBeam Accel
Where it fits

Critical pumps, where every parameter matters for real-time visibility and downtime is not an option.

Whole fleets — a fast healthy / faulty read across every asset you run.

Intelligence type

Prescriptive. It tells you the fault, the cause, and what to do about it.

Predictive. It flags what’s degrading, with known fault classification.

How physics is used

Physics-derived soft sensing trains the fault models — Sentinel knows how the pump should behave from first-principle laws.

Physics priors make transfer learning efficient — one model generalised across the fleet.

Sensing stack

Minimal sensing plus high-speed vibration waveform at 26 kHz and an edge-compute device for waveform processing.

Minimal sensing, no high-speed waveform — runs at any sampling rate.

Data & cost

Waveform-grade capture — comprehensive depth for the assets that can’t skip a beat.

Sampling rate flexes the cost-vs-accuracy trade-off to fit the fleet.

What you get

Detailed RCA and fault causal maps → a prescriptive intervention.

A confidence-scored healthy / faulty assessment for triage.

// How they complement

Run Accel across the whole fleet for continuous, low-cost coverage. When a pump’s confidence drops, that’s the escalation trigger — bring Sentinel to bear on the critical asset for waveform-deep root cause and a prescription. Breadth finds it; depth solves it.

// The Sentinel Stack

From the bare metal to the decision support.

An end-to-end, accountable system — purpose-built instrumentation, secure telemetry, the physics engine, the prescriptive intelligence it delivers, and the people it serves.

// Built for the entire ecosystem

Whether you build them, install them, or run them, Sentinel + Accel cover every PD pump, at every stage.

PD pump OEMs, commissioning experts, site O&M engineers, and fleet operators at scale — each gets intelligence shaped to the decisions they own.

PD Pump OEM
The Pump Maker
The shift

Today, a pump leaves your dock and disappears. With SmartBeam, every unit you ship stays intelligent and connected, so you can guarantee your customers the healthiest service life.

What you getWhy it matters
Twin-at-Birth: every pump ships with a cyber-physical twin and a certified baseline performance curve.Quality becomes auditable. Every unit carries a birth certificate of how it should perform — and you win specs competitors can't answer.
Performance outcomes, not bare metal: visibility into volumetric efficiency and energy per cubic metre lets you underwrite what was previously unknowable.Assured flow. Guaranteed kWh per m³. Availability contracts. You move from competing on price-per-pump to charging for performance-per-year.
Design feedback from the field: anonymized fleet-wide patterns reveal which geometries fail, where, and why.Your next pump is engineered on real-world physics, not design assumptions — every customer benefits from lessons learned across the installed base.
The outcome

From pump manufacturer to intelligent-asset partner, trusted for the life of the machine.

PD Pump User
The Flow Guardian
The shift

Today your team is drowning in threshold alerts, deciding which ones are real. With SmartBeam, the physics does the triage — so your team spends their judgement on fixing the problems, not filtering the noise.

What you getWhy it matters
Runtime Intelligence: live, confidence-scored state of every pump while it runs.You act on what's happening now, not last Tuesday's report.
Fault signature recognition: cavitation looks like cavitation, valve wear like valve wear.Ends the false-positive burden. Alerts your team can trust again.
Causal Twin: symptom mapped to physical root cause in minutes.Fix the right thing the first time — less downtime, no guesswork.
The outcome

Critical fluids keep moving. Surprises don't.

Fleet Operator
The Efficiency Scaler
The shift

Today you manage hundreds of pumps as line items in a spreadsheet. SmartBeam turns them into an intelligent portfolio that tells you where money leaks and which assets to trust.

What you getWhy it matters
Fleet-wide coverage (Accel): every pump scanned on minimal sensors.Full-fleet visibility with no instrumentation project and no blind spots.
Business Intelligence: an agentic loop surfacing design-flaw patterns, runtime-vs-flow-output, and energy and cost roll-ups.Sourcing, standardisation, and capital decisions grounded in physics-true field data.
Sentinel depth on critical assets: escalate the pumps you can't afford to lose.Protect the critical few without over-instrumenting the many.
The outcome

A fleet that reports its own economics.

// Outcomes

Reliability you can put a number on.

0h

Unplanned downtime avoided per 90 days across a 40-pump fleet.

0%

Precision on failure predictions, validated against work-order history.

0h

Median lead time between prescription and predicted failure.

0

Positive-displacement pump classes supported out of the box.

// Instrumentation to insight

One engineered stack for the entire PD pump ecosystem.

Most industrial intelligence is a patchwork — someone's sensors, someone else's data pipeline, someone else's dashboard, and no one accountable when the signal breaks. Sentinel™ is built as one stack, end to end — under one roof.

We sensorise the pump → We read its physical signature → We turn it into intelligence

Whether you make PD pumps, run them, or service a fleet of them — it's one system, one source of truth, one partner.
