Periodic inspection for pumps and hydraulic systems

Octav handles the periodic inspection of your pumps and hydraulic systems. The mobile app connects directly to your flow meter: flow rate and pressure are captured with no re-entry, and your inspection report generates itself.

Why Octav

Inspecting pumps is, above all, a matter of measurement

The inspection of pumps and hydraulic systems relies on precise readings: flow rate, pressure, operating points. That is exactly where the traditional process loses time and reliability, between the field notebook and the re-entry back at the office.

01

Remove the step that creates the errors

The inspection of a pump relies on precise readings. Every manual transfer of a value is a source of error: a mis-copied measurement means a false report and fragile traceability if you are audited. Octav captures the value at the source.

02

Take back control of a scattered fleet

Motor pumps, booster pumps, hydraulic units, fire pumps: equipment is spread across several sites, with deadlines that are easily lost. Octav brings them together with their measurement histories and their next inspections.

03

Deliver reporting that matches the work

Your clients expect clear reports, with the measured values, the history and the recommendations — not a hastily reformatted spreadsheet. The report is built from the readings, ready to sign before you leave the site.

Industry features

Octav features for pumps and hydraulics

Octav helps you capture measurements at the source, track every item in the fleet and produce reliable inspection reports without going back through the office.

App connected to the flow meter

At the inspection point, the mobile app connects directly to your flow meter: flow rate and pressure are captured with no re-entry at all.

Reliable, time-stamped measurements

Each reading is dated, attached to the equipment and kept in its history — solid traceability in the event of an audit or a dispute.

Reports generated automatically

The measurements feed the equipment record and the report, ready to be signed on site and sent to your client.

Field offline mode

Machine room, basement, remote site: you take readings and record inspections even with no network, and syncing happens on return.

QR code / NFC on each pump

One scan opens the equipment record, its measurement history and its next inspection deadline.

Deadlines and client portal

Upcoming inspections are scheduled and chased automatically, and your clients consult their reports on their own.

The Octav innovation

A mobile app connected to your flow meter

No more notebook and no more copying back at the office. The measurement goes straight from the flow meter into your inspection report, with nothing in between and no error.

Straight from the field

The flow meter reading becomes the value in the report.

The inspector connects the app to the flow meter, takes the reading and moves on to the next item. Flow rate and pressure are already in the record, time-stamped and traced.

  • Direct connection to the flow meter
  • Flow and pressure captured with no re-entry
  • Values attached to the equipment and time-stamped

1. You connect the app to the flow meter

At the inspection point, the Octav mobile app connects directly to your flow meter. No notebook, no screen photo to deal with later.

2. Measurements are captured automatically

Flow rate, pressure and key values are captured directly from the device and attached to the inspected equipment — without any re-entry.

3. The report builds itself

The measurements instantly feed the equipment record and the VGP report, ready to be signed on site and sent to your client.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about pump inspection and the flow meter

Yes. Octav handles the periodic inspection of pumps and hydraulic systems — motor pumps, booster pumps, hydraulic units, fire pumps and associated equipment. You track each piece of equipment, its measurements, its history and its deadlines, with reports generated automatically and reflecting your company.

At the inspection point, the Octav mobile app connects directly to your flow meter. The measurements — flow rate, pressure and key values — are captured automatically and attached to the inspected equipment, without re-entry. They immediately feed the equipment record and the VGP report, ready to be signed and sent.

Because manually copying values is the leading source of error in an inspection. By capturing the measurement directly from the device, you remove this step: the value shown by the flow meter becomes the value in the report, time-stamped and traced. You save time and make your traceability more reliable.

Yes. Octav’s offline mode is designed for difficult environments: machine rooms, basements, remote sites. You take readings and record your inspections without a network, and everything syncs automatically as soon as the connection returns.

We are continually expanding the app’s compatibility with the flow meters used in the field. Contact us with your current equipment: we will confirm support and the best way to connect your flow meter to Octav.
