| contents | Predicting equipment anomalies before they escalate into failures is a critical challenge in industrial facility management. Existing approaches rely either on hand-crafted threshold rules, which lack generalizability, or on large neural models that are impractical for on-site, air-gapped deployments. We present an industrial methodology that resolves this tension by combining open-source small foundation models into a unified 1,116-dimensional Triplet Feature Fusion pipeline. This pipeline integrates: (1) statistical features (x in $R^{28}$) derived from 90-day sensor histories, (2) time-series embeddings (y in $R^{64}$) from a LoRA-adapted IBM Granite TinyTimeMixer (TTM, 133K parameters), and (3) multilingual text embeddings (z in $R^{1024}$) extracted from Japanese equipment master records via multilingual-e5-large. The concatenated triplet h = [x; y; z] is processed by a LightGBM classifier (< 3 MB) trained to predict anomalies at 30-, 60-, and 90-day horizons. All components use permissive open-source licenses (Apache 2.0 / MIT). The inference-time pipeline runs entirely on CPU in under 2 ms, enabling edge deployment on co-located hardware without cloud dependency. On a dataset of 64 HVAC units comprising 67,045 samples, the triplet model achieves Precision = 0.992, F1 = 0.958, and ROC-AUC = 0.998 at the 30-day horizon. Crucially, it reduces the False Positive Rate from 0.6 percent (baseline) to 0.1 percent - an 83 percent reduction attributable to equipment-type conditioning via text embedding z. Cluster analysis reveals that the embeddings align time-series signatures with distinct fault archetypes, explaining how compact multilingual representations improve discrimination without explicit categorical encoding. |
