PumpDeviceIntegrationServer

August 4, 2026 · View on GitHub

A self-contained, NativeAOT-friendly OPC UA server that demonstrates the OPC 40223 Pumps companion specification with a full live simulation, wired through the fluent INodeManagerBuilder API and the additive OPC 10000-100 topology-element builder integration.

The pump sample is the integration test for every fluent API extension shipped under src/Opc.Ua.Server/Fluent/. Each extension is documented in Source-generated NodeManagers — Building richer node managers.

The simulated asset is a SimPump Corp PumpX-2000. Its nameplate, engineering ranges, alarm trip points and simulation profile are all published in DATASHEET.md — an official-style product datasheet that the server is aligned to and that tests/Opc.Ua.Di.Tests/PumpDatasheetConformanceTests.cs asserts against, so document and address space cannot drift apart.

Volumetric flow is the only independent variable in the simulation. Head, differential pressure, mass flow, efficiency and shaft power all follow from the datasheet characteristic curves (H(Q) = 32 − 0.0104·Q², η(Q) = 72·(1 − 0.6·((Q−25)/25)²), P = ρ·g·Q·H/η), so the published values are mutually consistent at every tick rather than being independent sine waves.

Running the sample

cd samples/PumpDeviceIntegrationServer
dotnet run -c Release

The server listens on opc.tcp://localhost:62542/PumpDeviceIntegrationServer by default. Override with --host localhost, --port 62550, and --pumps N (or the matching host, port, and pumps environment variables). --pumps defaults to 2 and accepts values from 1 to 100.

Browse to Objects > DeviceSet > Pump_1 in any OPC UA client (e.g. UaExpert) to explore the first simulated pump. BrowseNames use identifier-safe names (Pump_1, Pump_2, ...); DisplayNames keep the operator-friendly labels (Pump #1, Pump #2, ...). Pass --pumps N or set pumps=N to materialise more instances. Every pump is wired through the same simulation, alarm, history, identification, maintenance, and declarative DI ConfigureDevicesFor flow, so pumps added after startup automatically join the same live simulation. All pumps are units of the same PumpX-2000 product and differ only in serial number, asset id, component name and installation bay. They publish monitored data changes every 250 ms, with deterministic phase offsets so their values do not move in lockstep.

Subscribe to the EventNotifier attribute on any pump to receive alarm condition events when its simulated MotorOverheat state activates or clears. Each pump is also registered as a root notifier, so the same events are available from a subscription on the Server object.

Only the subtree of Pump_1 is drawn; every further pump (Pump_2, …, up to --pumps N) carries an identical one. Diagnostics is the one group that is not part of the model — it is added declaratively per pump by the non-typed WithFunctionalGroup(QualifiedName, ...) overload from Program.cs. OpenUsdRepresentation carries the twin bindings described in The OpenUSD twin.

Validating the address space

The Pump Address Space Validation workflow runs nightly and can also be started manually. It builds this sample, installs the latest stable OpcUaAddressSpaceChecker global tool, and validates all PumpType instances.

To reproduce the validation locally, start the server and run the following commands in another terminal:

dotnet tool install --global OpcUaAddressSpaceChecker
opcua-check-address-space `
    --endpoint opc.tcp://localhost:62542/PumpDeviceIntegrationServer `
    --type "nsu=http://opcfoundation.org/UA/Pumps/;i=1052" `
    --severity-threshold warning `
    --view-completeness complete `
    --require-complete-view

The nightly check keeps the tool's default auto validation-view policy and fails on confirmed errors or any checker execution failure.

The OpenUSD twin

The server also publishes an OpenUSD representation of the pump line (the draft OPC UA — OpenUSD Bindings companion model, see docs/OpenUsd.md) and serves its USD layers as embedded assets, so a connector can render the twin with no external asset resolver.

Every configured pump is a twin in its own right. The DeviceSet carries a plant-level representation anchored on /Plant whose single Many component binding is scoped to PumpType, so a connector composes one @pump.usda@</Pump> reference prim per pump — /Plant/Pumps/Pump_1, /Plant/Pumps/Pump_2, … — and each pump's own bindings drive only its own prim. Start the server with --pumps 6 and six fully modelled machines appear, each turning at its own speed, each with its own gauges, fluid level and alarm halos. Each pump publishes its bay as a ThreeDCartesianCoordinates value bound to xformOp:translate, which is what lays them out in a row without the stage having to author anything per pump.

The composition arc is Reference, not Instance: an instanceable prim turns its descendants into a shared prototype, and a shared prototype cannot carry the per-pump impeller rotation, casing colour or needle positions that make each machine read as its own.

Assets/Plant.usda models the pump as a real machine: a horizontal long-coupled end-suction centrifugal pump built to EN 733 (formerly DIN 24255), size 65-200, following the published dimensions of the Grundfos NK 65-200 / KSB Etanorm 65-200 family and driven by an IEC 160M motor on a fabricated baseplate.

ItemValue
Baseplate1.80 × 0.46 × 0.12 m
Shaft centreline above baseplate0.160 m (the IEC 160M frame number is the shaft height)
Volute casing0.355 m outer diameter × 0.110 m wide
Suction flangeDN80 axial, OD 0.200 m (EN 1092-2 PN16)
Discharge flangeDN65 vertical, OD 0.185 m (EN 1092-2 PN16)
Impeller0.198 m, six backward-curved vanes
Motor frame0.254 m outer diameter × 0.615 m long
Bay pitch2.4 m

Livery is KSB signal blue (RAL 5005) for the wetted castings and RAL 7035 light grey for the motor. pump.usda is that machine as a self-contained component asset, referenced once per configured pump. It is generated from the /Plant/Pumps/P101 master by Assets/generate_pump_assets.py — edit the master and re-run the generator, never the generated layer. The master itself is authored active = false, because the composed pumps are what render.

Two departures from a real pump are deliberate, so the twin can be seen: the suction pipe is drawn as a stub leaving the casing eye open (a cutaway, as trade-show display pumps are presented) and the coupling guard is a cage rather than a solid barrel. Both let you watch the shaft turn.

The hall

The rendered hall holds exactly the pumps the connected server simulates — one referenced pump.usda prim per configured pump, one bay every 2.4 m along +Y, each with its suction vessel behind it. Nothing else is drawn: the ProductionLine aggregation and the cross-server component are address-space topology, not machines anyone is driving, so composing them put pumps in the twin that no client could account for, and a pump federated from another server is not this server's to show at all.

HeroCamera is an operator's viewpoint: eye height 1.65 m in the aisle on the discharge side, pitched 7° below horizontal, framing every configured pump at a three-quarter angle with the vessels behind them. The framing holds from one pump up to eight, so it does not have to be retuned for --pumps N. Pass --camera /Plant/HeroCamera to start on it.

An error draws a red circle on the floor around the machine. A ring reads from anywhere in the hall and from any camera angle; a lamp on a mast only reads when you happen to be looking straight at it. The ring says that a pump is in alarm; the two fault halos — at the suction eye for cavitation, on the bearing bracket for motor overheat — say why. All three are authored invisible and only a live supervision binding reveals them, so a machine nothing is bound to never shows an alarm it did not raise.

Live bindings

All paths are relative to the pump's own prim, so every pump drives its own copy of every target.

MotorOverheat…/OverheatHalo.visibilityoverheat, on the bearing bracket
SpeedSetpoint…/Impeller.inputs:speedSetpointopt-in UsdToUaCommand, fail-closed

MassFlow is a rate, so binding it straight to a rotation op pins the shaft at a fraction of a degree and the pump looks dead. The simulation integrates the running speed into a ShaftAngle instead, and the binding scales it down to a legible ~45°/s — a real 2900 rpm shaft would alias into a stroboscopic blur at any practical sampling rate. Speed follows flow, so the impeller visibly slows and picks up with the duty point, and the phase offset the simulation gives each pump means no two shafts are ever at the same angle.

The OverTempAlarm condition itself is deliberately not bound. The fluent alarm builder leaves the condition's state children on their standard namespace-0 declaration NodeIds — which PumpInstanceNodeIdRegressionTests pins — so every pump's alarm shares one ActiveState, Severity and AckedState node, and binding those would ring every pump in the hall at once. The per-pump supervision states are the alarm indication instead: they are genuinely per instance, and they are what drives the condition through ActivatesAlarm in the first place.

A real pump shaft is horizontal, but the binding contract fixes the driven operation as xformOp:rotateZ. Impeller therefore carries a static xformOp:rotateY = 90 ahead of xformOp:rotateZ in xformOpOrder, which lays its local Z along the world shaft axis. The impeller and the coupling both hang off that one rotating prim, so they turn together — as they do on the real machine. The gauge needles use the same trick with xformOp:rotateX = 90, because their dials face the plant Y axis.

Which op a bound prim has to declare depends on the render target, and getting it wrong fails silently. A connector accumulates Translation, Rotation and Scale into a single xformOp:transform matrix, so that it never has to rewrite xformOpOrder — the list is uniform, and an opinion in the asset layer cannot be cleared from the stronger layer a connector edits. Every other xformOp: property, such as the scalar xformOp:rotateZ above, is authored under its own name. USD evaluates only the ops named in xformOpOrder, so a prim bound to a Translation target must declare xformOp:transform — the pump root and the suction vessel's fluid surface both do. Naming xformOp:translate there instead makes USD discard every value written to it: the pumps keep reporting their bay positions over OPC UA, and every one of them renders on the origin, so the hall looks like it holds a single machine. TransformBindingsTargetDeclaredXformOpsAsync checks each transform binding against the op the served asset actually declares.

Because the render targets expect degrees Celsius and bar while OPC 40223 publishes Kelvin and Pascal, the colour bindings declare the conversion themselves (offset: -273.15 and scale: 1e-5); §5.8 applies Scale then Offset. The gauge scales are derived from the PumpDatasheet engineering ranges, so a datasheet change moves the needles with it. PumpEfficiency is a readout rather than a colour: the DisplayColor ramp models a temperature, and colouring efficiency with it would read as a lie.

Viewing it

Run the server, then point the connector at it with --view:

Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Connector --server opc.tcp://localhost:62542/PumpDeviceIntegrationServer `
                         --insecure --view --fetch-assets .\stage-cache

The connector fetches the server-delivered layers, composes a self-contained stage and streams the live OPC UA values into live.usda and the viewport. See tools/Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Connector.

Running in Docker

A Dockerfile is provided that builds the Release publish output on the .NET AzureLinux 3 base images and runs it as a non-root user.

Build from the repository root, not from this folder. The image needs the full source tree (src/, samples/, tools/), so the Docker build context must be the repo root and the Dockerfile is selected with -f. Running docker build . from inside this folder fails fast with a message telling you the correct command.

# from the repository root:
docker build -f samples/PumpDeviceIntegrationServer/Dockerfile `
             -t pumpdeviceintegrationserver:local .

Run it, publishing the OPC UA port:

docker run --rm -p 62542:62542 pumpdeviceintegrationserver:local

Inside the container the endpoint binds to 0.0.0.0 so it is reachable from the host. Override the bind host and port via environment variables:

docker run --rm -p 62550:62550 `
           -e host=0.0.0.0 -e port=62550 -e pumps=4 `
           pumpdeviceintegrationserver:local

The server creates its certificate/PKI store under /app at runtime. To persist certificates across container restarts, mount a volume:

docker run --rm -p 62542:62542 `
           -v pump-pki:/app/pki `
           pumpdeviceintegrationserver:local

The image is built and published to the GitHub Container Registry by the pump-device-integration-server-docker.yml workflow on every push to master and on manual dispatch.

└── Properties/AssemblyInfo.cs

The Opc.Ua.Di model library is consumed as a project reference (its types live under the Opc.Ua.Di namespace and are source-generated from the ModelDesign XML). Cross-namespace references from Machinery and Pumps to DI types resolve through the [assembly: ModelDependencyAttribute] carried in the Opc.Ua.Di assembly — no DI NodeSet2 XML needed in this project. The unified attribute carries the compact type-table payload that the consumer's source generator imports at compile time; see ModelDependencies.md for the wire format and consumer-side flow.

The Machinery and Pumps NodeSet2 XMLs are source-generated locally inside this assembly via the <AdditionalFiles> plumbing in the .csproj. The generator emits typed *State classes, NodeId tables, and the AddOpcUaMachinery / AddOpcUaPumps extension methods that LoadPredefinedNodesAsync calls. No runtime XML loading happens — the Model/ folder is a build-time input only. Consumer assemblies that want to reference Machinery or Pumps the same way they reference Opc.Ua.Di should source-generate against the model XML inside their own assembly using the same <AdditionalFiles> pattern.

The sample intentionally does not add GeneratesEvent to pump instances. OPC 10000-3 restricts that reference to ObjectType, VariableType, and Method declarations; runtime delivery is provided by the notifier/event-source hierarchy and ReportEvent.

Extending the sample

When you change a published value, update DATASHEET.md and the constants in PumpDatasheet.cs together — PumpDatasheetConformanceTests fails the build otherwise.

  • Add a measurement: open PumpNodeManager.Configure.cs, add a bound updater in CreatePumpSimulation, store it in PumpSimulationState, and publish its value from Publish. Add its engineering range to PumpDatasheet.Ranges and to section 4 of the datasheet.
  • Add an alarm: create it from the typed Events builder in CreatePumpSimulation and wire the triggering boolean variable via .ActivatesAlarm(...). Document its trip points in section 7 of the datasheet.
  • Add a nameplate field: materialise it with the generator-emitted AddXxx(context) helper in PumpNodeManager.MaterialiseNameplate, assign its value in WithIdentification, and add the row to section 2 of the datasheet.
  • Add pumps: pass --pumps N (or set pumps=N) to materialise N identical simulated PumpType instances. PumpNodeManager demonstrates the hand-written fluent style by creating every pump, wiring Identification, Measurements, Supervision, Maintenance, engineering units, alarms, history, and the simulation callbacks. Program.cs keeps the declarative DI style by wrapping each generated pump with ctx.TopologyElement<PumpState>(...) and adding the ad-hoc Diagnostics functional group through ConfigureDevicesFor<PumpNodeManager>. CreatePumpAsync registers each new instance with the shared simulation, so pumps created after startup join the same live tick.

NativeAOT publishing

cd samples/PumpDeviceIntegrationServer
dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x64

The pump server publishes cleanly under NativeAOT — no trim or AOT warnings — because every fluent extension is reflection-free and the generated model factories are statically rooted.
