Pump System Optimization Guide

May 22, 2024
How to assess your pump performance and maximize efficiencies.

By some industry estimates, the average pump in an industrial production facility is operating at less than 40% efficiency, and 85% of pumps are not optimized to their system. This subpar performance translates to real money lost in the form of higher energy costs and premature wear and tear on overstressed valves. This excess stress on system components can lead to shorter mean time between repairs, higher maintenance costs and more unplanned downtime. To learn expert insights on optimizing your pump system for maximum efficiency and cost-effectiveness, download the eBook below! In this eBook, we cover:

  • How to take a holistic approach to assessing your pump performance
  • Lubrication best practices for compressors and centrifugal pumps
  • How one aging chemical plant addressed its recurring pump reliability issues
  • Why you should focus on the pumps that will yield the highest amount of savings first when tackling energy efficiency
  • Practical considerations for modern boiler feed water (BFW) pumps
