What makes a pump "smart"?
A smart pumping system consists of a pump integrated with a logic controller, variable speed drives and sensors, to monitor its operating characteristics and prevent dry running and cavitation. The capability to regulate pump operating parameters, such as pressure and flow, and operate them under optimal conditions makes these pumps smart.

Smart Pumps - Why should customers opt for it?
1. Energy efficiency and life cycle costs
2. Environmental friendliness

The two Cs: Cost & Conservativeness - Why they are misplaced
1. Initial Cost of the Smart Pump
2. Conservative Nature of End Users

Selection of Pump near BEP is the smartest solution.

In todays market where operating cost is becoming a factor to work with, the demand for pumpsmart becomes more demanding. As a retrofit in a application it does not always work, but that is just a few cases. Pumpsmart has been develop for "smart" operation and has more advantages than the conventional stop-start system. It allows the pumping equipment match the demand and you only pay for the percentage of pump kw used and have the availability of dealing with sudden high inflow.

Smart Pump technology is a great innovation and we have used it on our rotary screw pumps to alert viscosity changes, early detection of upset condition, etc. It is an evolving technology that can be effectively used with most pumping technologies. Goulds has a great Smart Pump program in place as well.

Armstrong pumps has an sensorless-vertical inline pumps with Integrated variable frequency drive which removes your sensor to be installed in risers,pump panel etc..

If a circulation hot water in use find the "MAGNA " type circulators made by GRUNDFOS PUMPS . very smart type of pumps .
