How AssetGuardian Connects
No rip-and-replace. Connects to your existing control systems in days, not months.
Layer 3 · The intelligence layer
AssetGuardian AI Layer
Predictive analyticsAnomaly detectionExecutive dashboards & ROI
Predictive models, health baselines and executive reporting run entirely above your control stack.
Data flows up. Commands never flow down.
Layer 2 · Deployed in days
Connector Layer
OPC-UA / OPC-DAModbus TCP/RTURead-only historian pull
Sits alongside your control system — reads tag data, never writes commands back. Zero risk to control logic.

How it works
Four steps, no downtimeConnect
01- What it adds
- Connector layer authenticates to your historian or OPC server using existing credentials.
- Why it matters
- No new hardware, no new network paths, no vendor lock-in.
- Expected benefit
- Live in hours on the first tag set
Read
02- What it adds
- Pulls tag data — pressure, flow, vibration, power, temperature — scheduled or streaming.
- Why it matters
- Strictly read-only. The control loop is never in the data path.
- Expected benefit
- Zero impact on control performance
Model
03- What it adds
- AI layer builds asset health baselines and detects deviation against your fleet's own history.
- Why it matters
- Models are trained on your operation, not a generic reference plant.
- Expected benefit
- Site-specific accuracy within 2 weeks
Surface
04- What it adds
- Recommendations and alerts appear in the AssetGuardian dashboard for operations and executives.
- Why it matters
- Your control system and operators are never touched.
- Expected benefit
- Actionable alerts, no new operator workflow
