Predictive Maintenance

Stop Shutting Down Healthy Equipment

Predictive models are only as good as the sensor data they consume. Expanso validates PLC and SCADA telemetry at the source, so your maintenance decisions are based on signals you can trust.

No infrastructure replacement. No pipeline rewrites. Works alongside your SCADA and historian.

Predictive models inherit every flaw in the data they consume

Sensor drift, duplicate readings, and ingestion lag don't just add noise - they cause models to recommend shutdowns on equipment that's running fine, and miss failures that are actually developing.

5-15% of sensor readings are duplicates from retransmissions

When a PLC retransmits data after a network hiccup, those duplicate readings enter your historian and get consumed by predictive models as if they were independent observations. Vibration trends spike. Pressure baselines shift. Your maintenance team investigates equipment that never had a problem.

5-15%
typical duplication rate

Ingestion lag shifts model baselines by seconds or minutes

When batch data arrives late, your models compute features on windows that don't align with physical reality. A 3-second delay on a 500ms vibration signal makes the model's frequency analysis meaningless.

Dropped PLC samples create false vibration trends

When a PLC drops 2% of readings, the resulting gaps in your historian look like sudden transitions. Your predictive model interprets them as equipment degradation patterns.

Incomplete data windows inflate false positive rates

When a predictive model operates on a window that's missing 5% of its data points, the confidence interval widens and every marginal reading gets flagged. More false positives mean more unnecessary shutdowns and inspections.

Sensor integrity, enforced before ingestion

Expanso validates every PLC reading, SCADA signal, and sensor stream at the source. Your historian and predictive models only receive data that passes validation.

# Edge validation output - compressor station 7
vibration: 847/847 samples
duplicates: 23 removed
drift: within 0.2%
pressure: complete window
temperature: 4 sensors consistent
flow_rate: nominal range
latency: 12ms edge-to-historian
schema: v2.4 compliant
status: forwarded

What we validate

Sample completeness - every PLC reading in the window is accounted for

Duplicate suppression - retransmitted readings stripped before ingestion

Timestamp accuracy - sequence and timing validated against physical constraints

Sensor drift detection - readings that diverge from calibration baselines are flagged

What your systems receive

Complete data windows with no gaps or dropped samples

Deduplicated streams that reflect actual equipment behavior

Time-consistent records that align with physical process windows

Drift alerts that arrive before corrupted data reaches your models

Large-Scale Deployment

14,847 distributed endpoints. 4.7 PB/month. $4.3M quoted for analytics.

A major U.S. deployment across 14,847 endpoints validated Expanso's approach to edge-first data integrity. Processing moved to points of presence, raw data stayed local, and only metadata and flagged events flowed upstream.

Data Volume
4.7 PB/month 47 GB + 230 GB flagged
99%+ reduction in upstream volume
Data Retention

"We already have SCADA and predictive analytics."

You do. SCADA visualizes process data. Your historian stores it. Your predictive models consume it. None of them verify that the sensor telemetry reaching them is complete, time-consistent, or free of duplicates.

Expanso validates PLC and sensor data at the source before ingestion. Your SCADA, historian, and models stay exactly where they are - the difference is they now operate on signals you can trust.

Built for energy infrastructure

Works across SCADA, PLCs, and sensor networks from any vendor

No disruption to control systems or operational workflows

Deploys incrementally, site by site, without downtime

Scales from a single compressor station to an entire fleet

Why teams deploy Expanso

Runs at the edge, where the equipment operates

Doesn't replace your analytics - makes them accurate

Reduces false maintenance alerts and unnecessary shutdowns

Improves predictive model accuracy by fixing input quality

If the sensor data isn't clean, the maintenance decision isn't safe

Fix the signal at the source. Let your models do their job.
