The pump model, published in 2021 and stable since. Pumps are everywhere in process industry and are classic candidates for condition monitoring, since a failing pump gives warning if anyone is watching.
Where it sits in the stack
Built on the Device Information Model, and PA-DIM is the more actively developed neighbour for process-industry device data generally.

Using it on a real machine
- Check PA-DIM as wellFor process-industry devices PA-DIM at 1.02.0 is the more actively developed model and carries IRDI semantic identifiers.
- Focus on condition, not productionA pump does not produce parts. Its value in an analytics platform is condition and energy.
- Look for the DI nameplateDevice identification underneath gives you the asset register join, which is what lets pump data reach a maintenance system.
What it gives you for OEE
Not a production asset, so no direct OEE contribution. It matters indirectly and sometimes decisively: a pump failure that stops a line is unplanned downtime attributed to the line, and pump condition data is what turns that into a predicted, scheduled stop instead.
Gotchas
- Published 2021 and unchanged since. Stable, but not actively developed.
- PA-DIM is the more active process-industry device model. Check it first.
- Condition and energy, not production. Set expectations accordingly.
Once the machine speaks a companion spec, the OEE mapping is portable across vendors, which is the point at which analytics stops being a per-machine project.
