An app for managing pumps: not simply an accessory, but a tool capable of changing the way installers work. The reason lies in today’s context, where the world of electric pumps has fully entered the phase of digital evolution. A pump is no longer just a mechanical device to be installed, started up and periodically checked: it is increasingly becoming an intelligent system, capable of generating data and communicating information about its own operation.
This transformation represents a true paradigm shift. Concepts such as continuous monitoring, preventive maintenance, remote control and long-term performance analysis are now central to the life cycle of pumping systems.
Calpeda Flow, the mobile app for managing Calpeda e-products, was developed precisely in response to these new needs: to provide installers, maintenance technicians and users with a simple, immediate tool for accessing key operating data and taking action with greater awareness, thanks to clear, precise and always available information.
App download and pump registration
Getting started is simple and intuitive. After downloading the Calpeda Flow app from the Play Store for Android devices or from the App Store for iOS, users can log in with their credentials and start the configuration process straight away.
To register a new pump, simply select “Add new pump” and enter a few essential details, such as the customer name and the system location. At this point, using the “Find nearby pumps” function, the app searches for nearby devices, displaying only compatible Calpeda pumps and automatically filtering out any other devices in the area.
Once the scan is complete, users can identify the correct pump by its serial number and associate it with their account, turning the smartphone into an access point for monitoring and controlling the system.
Calpeda Flow has been designed to adapt to different operating needs and to act as a link between installer, system, customer and service team. This is a major advantage at every stage: installation, programming and maintenance.
In addition to Bluetooth communication, which allows the smartphone to interact with the pump, it is possible to enable data transmission and reception via cloud. With the Wi-Fi Box, the system also enables full remote control, allowing the pump to be managed and monitored even when the user is not physically in front of the installation.
Monitoring and adjusting the pumps directly from your smartphone
The app provides an instant status check: see at a glance if your pump is running, on standby, switched off, or in an error condition. All key operating parameters are available in real time:
- pressure;
- speed;
- power;
- AC current;
- voltage;
- temperature;
- event logs.
For installers, having this data immediately available means reducing inspection times and understanding more quickly whether the system is operating under the correct conditions.
Calpeda Flow goes beyond monitoring: it also allows users to act on certain operating settings. For example, the app makes it possible to set the pressure of the pump or pressure boosting unit, an important function both in terms of comfort and energy consumption optimization. The app also features automatic restart management to protect the system against dry running.
Dynamic charts and historical data to understand system performance over time
The app does not provide just an instant snapshot. The charts page allows users to monitor parameter trends over time, observe how the pumping system behaves, compare values, identify variations and understand whether operating conditions have changed.
This function is particularly useful after installation, when the stability of the system needs to be checked, or during service operations, when it is necessary to reconstruct the pump’s behavior before an anomaly occurred.
From an energy consumption monitoring perspective, it is a valuable tool for assessing efficiency and identifying any critical issues.
Real-time alerts
A concrete advantage is the management of warnings through alerts sent directly to the phone. The app allows users to receive notifications in the event of anomalies, making it possible to intervene before a problem becomes critical.
Take, for example, a scheduled irrigation system or, more generally, any situation where service continuity is essential. Without a notification system, a fault may be detected too late, when the problem has already caused consequences. Thanks to the app’s alerts, users can instead be notified promptly.
Steamlined support thanks to geolocation and integrated media sharing
When it comes to service, speed often depends on the quality of data. Knowing a pump’s exact location and status details makes all the difference.
With Calpeda Flow, you can geo-locate each pump to get a clear map of installed systems. This makes tracking down equipment effortless during inspections, routine maintenance, or support requests.

To make things even easier, the media function lets users share multimedia content like photos, screenshots, or installation details. In case of an anomaly, this real-time data helps the service team instantly grasp the situation, assess the operational context, and deliver a faster, more effective response.
Calpeda e-products: smarter products, simpler work
The app targets Calpeda’s e-products: advanced plug-and-play solutions where electronics and hydraulics seamlessly integrate to maximize efficiency and control.
At the core is the MÈTA family—variable speed pressure boosting systems developed under the Extended Product Approach. These systems are engineered for ultra-high energy efficiency, maximum compactness, and exceptionally quiet operation.
The family includes MÈTA and MÈTA SMALL pumps, compliant with UL certification for the American market, as well as the latest evolution, MÈTA-2, developed on the MÈTA SMALL platform while delivering the performance of MÈTA.
The Calpeda Flow app provides the ultimate digital ecosystem for the range. It stands as a powerful operational tool engineered to unlock the full potential of connected products while streamlining on-site fieldwork.
