For your production
1. Reduce downtime: Production downtime can be avoided when pumps are well maintained. GENIUS Instant Insights™ tells you when to perform service, based on the pump operating profile, keeping your pumps in good health.
2. Lower risk of production losses: With GENIUS, vacuum pumps are continuously monitored and at any indication of failure, an alert can be addressed to the concerned people and a solution can be put in place.
3. Scheduled maintenance: When your pumps are connected to GENIUS, you can plan downtime for maintenance and align it to your production schedule.
For the environment
1. Less energy consumption: Pumps connected to the GENIUS Portal deliver transparency about energy consumption and cost, all while sending you recommendations increasing your energy efficiency.
2. Lower CO2 footprint: By becoming more energy efficient, your vacuum pumps will also reduce their CO2 output, helping contribute to your sustainability targets.
3. Compliance: Waste reduction through a more efficient pump operation will help you to be more compliant with local regulations.
GENIUS Cybersecurity
One of the many benefits of GENIUS is that information on your pump’s performance is safely stored on the Cloud, so you can access it at any time, from anywhere. We know how important data safety and cyber security is and have put safety measures in place to ensure that your data is as secure.
We use the latest technologies, experienced partners, and managed data access to protect your data. Our main development partner is ISO 27001 certified. We also use additional measures, such as PEN-tests, to keep your data secure.
No risk for your internal networks: data transfer with secure cellular mobile technologies using a dedicated gateway. Plus, GENIUS is completely independent from your internal networks (like WIFI and LAN).
State-of-the-art encrypted data transfer: all data communicated to the Cloud is encrypted with state-of-the-act asymmetric encryption, and only trusted devices can communicate with the Cloud.
Managed data access: access to data limited to you and selected ACG employees engaged in providing you a better service and helping you to operate your pumps better.
Experienced partners along the value chain: such as, Sierra Wireless, Microsoft Azure, OrangeNEXt and Vodafone.

GENIUS Instant Insights™——客户评价
In June 2020, our Customer Center in Germany installed 5 GENIUS Instant Insights™ boxes on five Dry Vacuum Pumps during the pilot phase of the connectivity project. The customer is a leading manufacturer in Germany. The result was outstanding. The customer was delighted when in early September they received a critical level alert on an e-mail from the GENIUS Instant Insights™ portal.
This was our first installation of the remote monitoring GENIUS Instant Insights™ system on the client side. The client was aware that given the number of machines involved, the system would have to be complex. They concluded that GENIUS Instant Insights™ would be up to the task and gave it a try. The results surprised them beyond expectation. The early warning messages and information helped them in lowering downtime.
“The pre-filter in the water circuit was almost completely blocked. We were able to recognize this immediately from the pressure display on the GENIUS Instant Insights™ portal and changed the corresponding pre-filters. 20 minutes of downtime, but our process could continue to operate without any loss of material. I have now included our operators in the notification list for alerts. They are grateful for such a valuable input, as it prevents unpleasant tidying up (e.g., shoveling 20 tons of glass after breakage). A clear indication that this system is indeed useful for us.”
“All these machines need to work specifically and shouldn’t delay my production. I never wanted a long-term production loss, so when they said we want to install this, I said, “Yes, of course”. We had installed a new pump system in 2018. We had never used a dry vacuum pump before; we used to use an oil-based vacuum pump. So, I wanted to know if there is a possible failure mode. These machines have several parts; using this monitoring system, I get pre-warning about pretty helping details. Those early messages in my e-mails help me a lot.”
How to connect your pump to GENIUS
There are three different ways to connect your pumps.
- Connecting to GENIUS with a new pump
- Connecting GENIUS to an installed pump
- Connecting GENIUS at our workshop
Connecting to GENIUS with a new pump
Are you thinking about, or in the process of purchasing a new vacuum pump?
Ask your machine sales representative if GENIUS Instant Insights™ is compatible with the model that you are purchasing.
Vacuum pumps with intelligent controller: connection to the GENIUS Portal can be achieved via LAN or by having a GENIUS Box Kit installed during the pump’s start up.
Vacuum pumps without intelligent controllers: these pumps can be ordered from our factory with a GENIUS box kit preinstalled.
Connecting GENIUS to an installed pump
The GENIUS kits can also be installed by one of our service engineers or our authorized distributors.
We can install GENIUS during a normal service visit. This means that there is no additional cost for the installation. It takes on average 30 minutes to get your pump fully communicating with the GENIUS Portal.
For some machine models, the customer can easily and safely install the kit by themselves. Please talk to your service provider for more information.
Connecting GENIUS at our workshop
When booking a major maintenance at one of our workshops for your vacuum pumps, you can request your service provider to install a GENIUS Box kit at no additional installation cost.
Your vacuum pump will return to you already communicating to the GENIUS Portal. You will be ready to follow your pump condition from day one after it is back from the workshop. And the best, at your convenience!
