It is mainly composed of pumps, drive devices, pipeline systems and control systems, etc., and lifts liquids from low places to high places, or transports them from one place to another by electric or mechanical drive. Pump station units may have various faults during operation, including but not limited to: wear and damage of the pump body, failure of the drive device, leakage or blockage of the pipeline, insufficient or abnormal flow, abnormal temperature and pressure, and vibration and noise problems.
[0003] In order to ensure the normal operation of the pump station unit, the following diagnostic methods and equipment are usually used: Vibration sensor: used to detect vibration during equipment operation and identify mechanical failures. Flow meter: used to monitor liquid flow and determine the working efficiency and performance of the pump station. Infrared thermal imager: used to monitor the temperature distribution of the equipment and detect overheating or uneven cooling.

The purpose of diagnosing the pump station unit is to promptly detect and handle abnormalities in equipment operation, prevent the expansion of faults, reduce equipment downtime and maintenance costs, and ensure the safe and efficient operation of the system.
[0004] However, in the prior art, the fault diagnosis of pump station units usually relies on a single or a few sensor devices, such as vibration sensors and flow meters, to monitor local or single parameters. These devices usually transmit data to the local control center by wire for preliminary analysis and processing. After a fault occurs, it is handled by manual inspection and maintenance. The prior art has the following problems and shortcomings in the fault diagnosis of pump station units. Limited monitoring range: Existing diagnostic equipment can usually only monitor a single parameter (such as vibration or flow), and cannot fully grasp the operating status of the equipment. Poor real-time performance: Due to reliance on manual detection and analysis, the real-time performance of fault diagnosis and processing is poor, and it is difficult to detect and respond to equipment failures in a timely manner. Single data transmission method: Most existing systems rely on wired transmission, which has poor flexibility and is greatly affected by the environment. Inconvenient installation and maintenance: Existing equipment is complicated to install and maintain, affecting normal production operations. High cost: A large amount of manpower and equipment investment is required, which increases operating costs.
