Periodic inspection for pumps and hydraulic systems

Octav handles the periodic inspection of your pumps and hydraulic systems. On Android, the mobile app reads flow rate and pressure over Bluetooth from your measuring device and pre-fills the report, which the technician checks before signing.

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. On Android, the app reads the value from the measuring device and pre-fills it in the report: the technician checks it instead of copying it.

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

On Android, the mobile app connects over Bluetooth to your measuring device and pre-fills the flow rate and pressure of the pump or hydrant report. Your flow meter's compatibility is to be confirmed with us.

Measurements attached to the equipment

The values captured appear in the report of the inspected equipment and stay in its report history.

Reports generated automatically

The measurements pre-fill the report, which the technician checks and signs on site; the PDF is generated on closing and sent to your client.

Field offline mode

Machine room, basement, remote site: in the Android app, the pump report can be filled in even with no network, and syncing happens on return.

QR code / NFC on each pump

The pump's QR code, or an NFC tag you program with its link, opens its record online: history, reports and documents.

Deadlines and client portal

Upcoming inspections show up in your deadlines, with an email summary if you turn it on, and your clients consult their reports on their own.

The Octav innovation

A mobile app connected to your flow meter

No more copying back at the office. The measurement read from the device pre-fills your inspection report, and the technician checks it before signing. The reading is taken from the Octav mobile inspection app, on Android, over Bluetooth.

Straight from the field

The flow meter reading pre-fills the report.

The inspector connects the app to the flow meter and takes the reading: flow rate and pressure are pre-filled in the report, which they check before signing.

  • ✓ Bluetooth connection, on Android
  • ✓ Flow and pressure pre-filled in the report
  • ✓ Values checked before signing

1. You connect the app to the flow meter

On Android, the Octav mobile app connects over Bluetooth to your measuring device. An initial setup links each of its readings to a field of the report.

2. The readings pre-fill the report

Flow rate and pressure are read from the device and pre-filled in the report of the inspected equipment; the technician checks them and can correct them.

3. The report is signed on site

Once the values are checked, the report is signed on site; the PDF is generated on closing 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.

On Android, the Octav mobile app connects over Bluetooth to your measuring device. After an initial setup, it reads flow rate and pressure and pre-fills the pump or hydrant report; the technician checks the values before signing, then the report is sent to your client.

Because manually copying values is a common source of error in an inspection. By reading the measurement from the device, the app pre-fills it in the report: the technician checks it instead of copying it. You save time.

Yes, in the Android app, designed for difficult environments: machine rooms, basements, remote sites. You fill in your pump reports there without a network, and everything syncs automatically as soon as the connection returns. A few features, such as voice dictation, still need a connection.

The app runs on Android, and each flow meter’s compatibility is to be confirmed with us. Contact us with your current equipment: we will confirm support and the best way to connect your flow meter to Octav.
