4.5 Function
Sensor unit The sensor unit is preferably installed at the pump’s bearing bracket or drive lantern,
where it measures the pump’s vibrations and temperature trends using built-in
sensors. This data is sent to the transmission and battery unit.
Transmission and battery
unit
The sensor unit is connected to the transmission and battery unit with a connecting
cable.
The transmission and battery unit sends the measured data to KSBGuardGateway
via a radio signal.
KSB Guard Gateway KSBGuardGateway collects the data of the sensor unit and transfers it to the
KSBCloud in encrypted format. The data can be accessed via the KSBGuard app or
the ksbguard.net web portal.
One KSBGuardGateway can process the data of up to 40 transmission and battery
units, if they send data once an hour. If data transmission is more frequent, the
number of units per gateway is reduced.
4.6 Measured values
Temperature The temperature is measured inside the sensor unit. The values can therefore differ
from the actual surface temperature of the pump set.
Vibrations The vibration values are measured in three axes and usually output as RMS values.
4.7 KSB Guard Gateway
KSBGuardGateway cannot be accessed; it is located in a flameproof enclosure. All
connections (antennas, power supply) are located outside the flameproof enclosure.
