Pioneer Pump: Enhancing electric pump set monitoring with telemetry

  • Sector: Pumps
  • Location: UK

Since 2017, Pioneer Pump has championed telemetry on its diesel pump sets – a commitment now extended to its electric pump sets through a collaboration with WASP. These advanced electric units, powered by high-capacity variable frequency drives, are now supported by ORB telemetry for remote monitoring and control.

Challenge:

Pioneer needed a robust telemetry solution to manage real-time monitoring and control across a range of drive settings and operating conditions. Key technical hurdles included complex Modbus communication, live fault diagnostics, and seamless remote adjustments.

Solution:

WASP’s telemetry system enabled:

GPS tracking and geofencing

Real-time status updates and fault alerts

Remote start/stop and speed control

Customisable alerts via SMS, app, and email

Operators can now view key pump performance data remotely, diagnose issues in advance, and reduce costly site visits and downtime.

Outcome:

The integration of ORB has delivered a reliable, user-friendly dashboard with custom controls and widgets. The solution has already been successfully rolled out across a major UK rental fleet, with WASP and Pioneer Pump now working to add multi-pump and duty/standby functionality.

Result:

Improved efficiency, reduced costs, and greater reliability – all backed by ongoing innovation and support from WASP.
