The patent US12044239B2 describes a submersible pump system designed to enhance the monitoring and control of submersible pumps. The system includes a submersible pump for water storage, an electric current detection unit to monitor the drive electric current, and a storage unit for recording this data. An identification unit is integrated to facilitate data transmission and reception, enabling the calculation of various electric current parameters, such as standard deviation, maximum and minimum values, and the rate of change over time. Additionally, the system can incorporate a water level detector to monitor the water level in the storage unit, further informing the pump's operational state.

The identification unit plays a crucial role in assessing the pump's operational status by utilizing machine learning techniques to establish virtual boundaries that differentiate normal and abnormal operations. The system can predict future operational states based on current conditions and various detected parameters, including water content, temperature, and discharge metrics. It is also capable of notifying external devices about any identified abnormalities and can control multiple pumps, ensuring that those likely to be malfunctioning are only operated in emergencies. The patent also encompasses a computer-readable medium and programs that facilitate the execution of these processes, ensuring efficient monitoring and management of submersible pump operations.
