£9.8M in benefits
1,300 assets monitored across hundreds of pumping stations. 70,000 manual inspections replaced. Fleet-scale coverage that transformed how Yorkshire Water manages pump health.
63 failures caught
£748K annual savings from early fault detection. Submersible pumps monitored 24/7 from the MCC — preventing pollution events and unplanned callouts across the network.
9/9 faults detected
100% detection rate. ESA caught bearing damage that the existing vibration monitoring programme missed. The definitive proof that ESA and vibration are complementary technologies.
Bearing fault in extreme environment
SAM4 detected bearing degradation on a critical motor in a high-temperature, high-vibration steel environment — conditions where traditional sensors struggle to survive.
800% ROI in 11 months
Zinc smelting operation. SAM4 detected faults that would have caused unplanned shutdowns costing tens of thousands per hour. Payback in under a year.
7.1% energy efficiency gain
Drinking water utility. SAM4 identified pumps operating below best efficiency point — enabling targeted energy optimisation across the fleet without capital expenditure.

Detection stories
Each card below is a documented detection — a specific fault that SAM4 caught before it caused failure. Filter by industry to find detections relevant to your operation.
Up to 5 months advance warning
Belt, gearbox and bearing faults detected remotely on wastewater inlet screws — up to five months before failure.
Downtime avoided
Rising belt frequency energy flagged at a chlor-alkali plant. Belt replaced during planned stop — no production losses.
€15,000 saved
Mechanical seal damage caught before catastrophic pump failure. Minor repair instead of full replacement.
Timely action taken
Debris clogging detected through sustained cavitation signature. Customer removed blockage before permanent damage.
3-week detection window
Missing coupling bolt causing misalignment detected weeks before damage. One bolt replaced — no downtime.
100% detection accuracy
Fatigued coupling detected in hot strip mill roller. SAM4 has caught every coupling failure on these assets — zero false positives.
$90,000 saved per detection
Motor overloading on heated godet roll detected and resolved within 30 minutes. $70K lost production + $20K corrective maintenance avoided.
Same-day detection
Diagnosed within hours of SAM4 installation — thanks to 2.5 years of baseline data from identical rolls.
3 faults found
Worn coupling spider, stuck vanes, and loose foundation — all three detected from a single alert. Complete failure prevented.
~1 year advance warning
Iron buildup at submerged pump inlet detected through decreasing power and cavitation patterns — nearly a year before failure.
7 months advance warning
Misalignment wearing out coupling blocks detected and tracked for 7 months. Confirmed at scheduled preventive maintenance.
Up to 200 m deep
Clogging, VFD issues, and mechanical degradation detected on submerged pumps — impossible to reach with traditional sensors.
2 machines, 1 fix
Loose guard in one blast wheel disturbed its neighbour. Both returned to normal after a single repair.
7 months of tracking
Bearing degradation tracked from early detection to scheduled replacement. 26+ faults detected for this customer.
Pollution prevented
Both co-located pumps completely blocked. SAM4 was the only system that detected it — telemetry had failed. Boots, tyres, and debris cleared in time.
Hundreds of thousands saved
Belt, bearing, and pulley faults across pumps, fans, and conveyors in ATEX zones. Sensors install in the MCC — no access to hazardous areas.
Root cause fixed
Severe cavitation from suboptimal startup procedure identified. Operating procedure changed — recurring impeller and seal damage eliminated.
