• Yorkshire Water is expanding its use of AI to monitor 1,500 additional sewage and clean water pumping assets over the next 18 months.
• The expansion will utilize Samotics’ electrical signature analysis, which detects developing faults by analyzing current and voltage signals remotely.
• This AI-driven approach targets hard-to-reach and submerged pumps that are difficult to monitor with traditional vibration sensors.
• The existing monitoring technology has demonstrated substantial effectiveness with 726 detected faults, prevented 40 pollution events, and yielded a 571% ROI for Yorkshire Water.
• Data insights generated from the AI system will support strategic infrastructure planning and investment through long-term deterioration analysis.
