A pump audit from Grundfos analyzes the energy consumption of a pump system by collecting flow and pressure data. It attaches measuring equipment to the system to gather this data, then uses the data to provide recommendations on how to optimize the system to save energy and costs. Case studies show that pump system upgrades based on audit results can save 20-56% on annual energy costs, with investment payback periods ranging from 14 to 20 months.

1. 20% to 50% of the energy consumed by pump systems could be saved! Nearly 20% of the world’s electrical nergy are used for pump systems Energy, Service, etc. Pump systems

2. What is a Pump Audit from Grundfos Basically, it’s a check-up of your existing pump installation. It gives you an analyses the flows and energy consumption of a given system It shows if it would be cheaper to change to more energy-efficient pumps. It is carried out by attaching measuring equipment to the system, letting it collect data,and using the data to make recommendations. It is optimizing your investment by calculating your return on investment on the actual situation.

3. On site measuring the facts Flow meter measures pipe sizes 15 - 2000 mm. Measures liquids from –20 degrees to 200 degrees Celsius. 1 digital + 1 analogue output. Data logger Analogue sensors Pressure, temperature, etc. Digital/event sensors Pump on/off etc. Energy meter up to 6kV, for motors 1.5 to 450kW.

4. Comprehensive reports to make the right decisions
