Floating Solar Panels: An Alternative to Land Panels

One of the main concerns people have when they’re considering installing solar panels is the fact that their premises may not be big enough to house large solar panels. In Indian cities, for instance, Mumbai, space constraints are very common. As a result, many buildings are small and don’t have rooftops big enough for Residential Solar Panels. If you’re planning on installing Solar Panel in Mumbai, floating solar panels may prove to be a great option.

What are Floating Solar panels?
Floating PV Panels are solar panels that are installed in a body of water. These are attached to buoyant structures, such as pontoons, which ensure that they remain afloat. Such panels are located in stagnant bodies of water, which could be natural (e.g. lakes) or manmade (e.g. reservoirs).

Key benefits of floating panels:

  • Overcoming space constraints: Renewable Energy like solar power no longer takes up vast chunks of your land if installed in water bodies.
  • Prevention of overheating: Contrary to popular belief, too much direct sunlight can cause solar panels to overheat. Hence, when it comes to floating panels, water can help cool the panels down to some extent to maintain efficiency.
  • Prevention of water loss: Since floating panels cover large sections of water bodies, they slow down evaporation since those sections are no longer in contact with direct sunlight.

Vijay Engineering and Machinery Company is a top-notch EPC Consultant in Maharashtra. If you’d like to explore the option of floating panels for your green energy needs, feel free to contact us!

Points to keep in mind while purchasing split casing pumps

A pump can be described as a hydraulic operating machine which enhances the overall mechanical power of a fluid. Pumps are fundamental devices that transform cold and hot fluids in a condensed system and are the basis of the modern world.

The sheer specialty of these split casing pumps lies on the procedure of moving slurries or fluids which run through them impeccably from a higher level to lower level. Throughout the years, the pumps have incorporated themselves like the staple devices of colleges, households, commercial complexes, hospitals, etc. Nowadays, one can come diagonally a pump fixed for a plethora of reasons, for example, water supply, chemical movement, gasoline supply, flood control, marine service, etc. in urban as well as rural areas.

These pumps are either horizontal split casing pumps, vertical split casing pumpsor centrifugal split casing pumps. These types of pumps are further divided into 2 types, viz. single stage horizontal/vertical pumps and multistage horizontal/vertical pumps Every single stage pump is provided with double suction sort impeller. Both double stage/single stage pumps are fixed with mechanical seal. A lot of aspects plays an important role while choosing a right split casing pump. We have listed some points below which you should follow:

Head:

The pump head denotes the enlargement in energy obtained by 1 liter of fluid between the output and the input section of the pump. It is symbolized by the H letter and is calculated in meters of transmitted liquid or J/kg. To make out the head rating of a pump, search for a data shield which specifies the total head (Ht), discharge head (Hd) & suction head (Hs).

Flow Rate:

The stream rate of a pump is the functional volume of fluid dispensed by the pump into the time unit. It is generally symbolized with the letter Q and is calculated in the units: m3/s, m3/h or LPM.

Power:

The control imparted into a liquid increases the force of the fluid for each unit volume. Therefore, power relies on the transfer of the mechanical power of the fluid elements and pump mechanism present inside the pump. It is another critical thing to be noticed it is the effectiveness of a pump (ηp) to be exactly the ratio between the power Pactl absorbed by the pump and power P supplied to the fluid the (that is the automatic power transmitted by the electric motor):

 ηp = P/Pactl

Speed:

The rotating speed of a pump is the amount of uprising carried out by the pump in a permanent time unit. The speed is symbolized with the ‘Ns’ letter and calculated in Revolutions Per Minute (RPM). Generally, pumps are fixed with a 2-pole induction speed. If the average management of the motors as well as the electrical power dispersed in the mains includes a frequency of more than 50 or 60 Hz.

Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH):

If you would like to purchase a centrifugal pump, then NPSH is the leading parameter that should be regarded without fail. NPSH points out an inability of a centrifugal pump to create an unconditional vacuum as well as suck at higher than or height equal to 10 meters.

So, the points mentioned above clear your doubts and help you to decide to buy split casing pumps.

Important information regarding centrifugal pump designs

There are different types of pumps and one of the most prevalent is the centrifugal one.  This pump boasts varied applications in the agricultural field, power generation sector, petroleum industry and wastewater plants among others. There are multistage centrifugal pumps that serve major uses and boast a lot of horsepower and efficiency. Centrifugal pumps are categorized in a class of pumps known as kinetic pumps.

How do centrifugal pumps work?

They have a swiftly rotating impeller (at a speed of 1750RPM to 3500RPM) that is driven by a shaft and placed in a casing. So the liquid flows into the inlet of the casing and then tossed to the outside of the casing to flow out through a discharge port.  When the impeller is working at a high speed, the high Continue reading “Important information regarding centrifugal pump designs”

Fire panels: The most essential controlling device during fire breakouts

With fires being as rampant as they are today, it is crucial for all of us to take every measure possible to minimise damage in case of an unforeseen fire breakout. So, what can you do to safeguard life and property on your premises? One would possibly think of investing in fire extinguishers and a fire fighting pump set. While both of these are necessary, the most important thing to first look at would be a good fire panel.

That’s right. A fire panel. This is what will control your fire fighting pump set so that you don’t have to. A fire panel works completely autonomously so no one would need to risk their life to switch on the pump. The only thing you’d need to do is switch off the diesel engine pump once the fire is out.

Vijay Engineering and Machinery Company is a name people have been trusting for decades when it comes to fire safety.

Our firefighting control panel comes with the following features:

  • It automatically operates the main and the jockey pump
  • It comes with an advanced alarm system that gets triggered automatically
  • It automatically starts the diesel engine drive pump in case of power failure. The diesel engine panel also comes with a battery charger.
  • A standby pump automatically takes over in case the main pump stops working
  • It displays the system’s status, i.e. on, off, or other parameters

How does it work?

The main job of a fire panel is to maintain a constant pressure in the line. Since the entire firefighting system is pressurised, a fall in pressure predetermined by the fire panel allows it to start or stop different pumps. In case of fire, the panel first activates the jockey pump. The pump is activated by a fall in pressure. But if this pressure drop is too high for the jockey pump to handle, the main pump is activated. This is also when the alarm is activated to alert everyone and commence the evacuation process. The standby pump is activated in case the main pump fails.

Hence, VEMC’s fire panel was curated keeping in mind different types of contingencies and is designed to deal with each one. So, when you’re fireproofing your property, be sure to complete your firefighting system with a VEMC fire panel.

VEMC also supplies high-quality fire fighting pump sets. Click here to know more.

Net Metering and Why You Need It

Today, thanks to adverse economic and environmental conditions, we’re constantly on the lookout for cheaper, more sustainable alternatives for many things. Electricity generation is one such thing. With more and more people switching to solar electricity, many financial models and billing mechanisms have been introduced to significantly enhance the cost-effectiveness of solar models. Long gone are the days where we’d complain about unreasonably high light bills!

Solar net metering

Solar net metering is a popular billing mechanism among solar energy users. It works in a grid-tied system, where your solar PV system is connected to the main utility grid. So, if your energy production exceeds your usage, the extra units produced are added to the main grid. These units can then be used by others connected to the grid who need them.

When it comes to billing, users are credited every time they add units to the grid and debited whenever they use energy from the grid. They’re only billed for the net energy used. Usually, users tend to add more to the grid than they consume, e.g. when it’s sunny and limited electricity is required for indoors lighting. This allows them to minimize their electricity bills to as low as zero!

Perks of net metering

  • Save money. That’s the biggest perk of this system. It takes care of bringing down your light bill so that you can spend your hard-earned money on other things you’ve always wanted.
  • Eliminate the need for expensive solar products. By using net metering, your PV system adds excess units produced directly to the utility grid. This means you don’t need expensive solar generators or batteries to use solar energy.
  • Be more environmentally friendly. Net metering makes the best use of a renewable source of energy and adds sustainability to its consumption.
  • Make your neighbourhood self-sustaining. By switching to this system, your entire neighbourhood will use energy generated by its residents. Those with extra energy would provide it to others who need it. This way, power cuts will be a thing of the past!
  • Motivation to save electricity. Unlike in non-renewable forms of energy, you get credited for using lesser energy. This helps instil a conservative mindset when it comes to power consumption as those who add units to the grid are rewarded with significantly lower light bills.

Kirloskar HYPN Systems: Efficient multi-use water supply systems

Urbanization has increased the demand of efficient water supply systems. With a large number of people living in residential complexes, towers and high number of people working in big commercial buildings supplying water at a constant pressure is a big challenge. Kirloskar Bros. Pvt. Ltd.has brought an efficient water supply solution for large residential and commercial complexes that promises pressure maintained water supply with the required pressure across all the outlets all the time.

Introducing Kirloskar HYPN System:

Kirloskar HYPN system is a combination of Hydro (HY) that is liquid circulation and pneumatic (Pressure) system (PN) abbreviated together as HYPN system. This system is far more advanced than the traditional water supply system that relies on gravity for water pressure development through overhead tanks. This system is a combination of high power centrifugal pumps and tanks with compressed air that maintain water flow and pressure throughout the supply system. This system has a capability of maintaining constant water pressure all the time irrespective of changes in water consumption.

Advantages of HYPN system:

  • HYPN system maintains uniform pressure across all water outlets
  • It has an automated control system that regulates the water supply across tanks
  • It maintains the desired water pressure across all the outlets
  • It requires least intervention during sudden increase in water demands

How does HYPN system work?

Residential towers, hotels, and commercial complexes require constant water supply. They possess more than one buildings and varied supply needs of each building. The traditional “pressure due to gravity system”with overhead tanks is not capable to provide uniform pressure across all outlets all the time because there is limit to pressure the system can generate. This is a problem in case of increased water use during the morning time of the day. For example water pressure and the force reduce when more taps are open in a building. Also in case of overhead tank supply system the top floors get low water pressure because they are nearer to the overhead tank.

HYPN is an automated system that does not need overhead tanks. It can work with all water tanks irrespective of their position or height (also ground placed tanks). It is the combination of the pumping and pressurized tanks to maintain water supply with a constant pressure.

The system operates at a set pressure that is to be maintained across all water outlets across all buildings of a complex. It is equipped with pressure sensors that sense the decrease in the pressure when one or more outlets are open. The demand of water is more in the morning work timings. Consequently more water outlets are open during that time and pressure reduces because of high water consumption. For the buildings to receive equal watersupply all the time HYPN system sensors sense the drop in the pressure and increase the pressure or force of water by speeding the pumps. Small difference of pressure is covered by the pressure tanks.

VFD system integration

HYPN system is equipped with Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) that increases or decreases the RPM of the pumps for maintaining the pressure. It acts as per the instantaneous feedback of the pressure sensors to the system. The maximum RPM of the pumps is 2900 per minute and this is the stage where the pumps produce maximum pressure.

The RPM of the pumps is altered by changing the frequency of the electrical power of the pumps depending on the pressure requirement. The VFD system maintains the pressure by changing the RPM corresponding to the specific value of the required pressure. This feature of the HYPN system makes it the most preferred water supply system in the international market.

Types of pressure boosting systems:

  • Fixed speed system: All pumps operate at fixed speeds
  • Single VFD system: One pump on VFD and remaining 1 or 2 on full speed.
  • Multiple VFD system: All pumps on VFD system

The type of system to be implemented depends on the water flow requirements and the size of the overall system. In case of utility of a single big pump it is run with a VFD and if multiple pumps are necessary 1 or 2 is run on full RPM for maximum pressure and one is run with VFD to cope with the water pressure changes across the day.

Uses of HYPN system:

  • Tank filling system for underground water tanks to overhead water tanks
  • Water supply to residential buildings, hotels, commercial buildings, townships, airports, IT parks etc.
  • Water transfer from one storage tank to other storage tank
  • Bottling plant and demand based industrial applications like textile, process automobile, power etc.
  • Municipal corporation water supply schemes, irrigation and gardening systems

Vijay Engineering and Manufacturers Company (VEMC) supply Kirloskar pumps with high functionality control panels that help you get more out of the HYPN system. The control panels make the controlling and setting of the system very easy and add to the overall capability of the HYPN system.

Energy Saving and Efficient Water Pumps – The Need of the 21st Century

21st century is a time of cut throat competition in all fields and when it comes to large corporate houses and industries, the proverb takes a whole new meaning all together. With the rising competition and evolving technology, business houses indeed have to stay up to date with what is imperative for their field. And when it comes to water pump dealers specifically, the imperative is energy saving and efficient pumps.

There are many who consider this a fad or are discouraged by the higher initial monetary input required. However, the time when sticking to the old, inefficient pumps was a feasible option is long gone. Here we present why going for energy saving and efficient equipments is the need of the hour for water pumps distributors.

1. Cost Efficient: The energy saving pumps might present you with a higher initial assembling or purchase cost but in the long run, these pumps save you a lot more money in the form of less energy usage and reduced electricity bills. Along with their more efficient set up, they give you a better output performance than the conventional, inefficient pumps which in turn is a form of indirect monetary benefit.

2. Customer Demands: The importance of energy saving and efficient machinery is unknown to no one and with passing time, these have become one of the most important specification when it comes to customer demands. The case is same, whether you are dealing with a large scale sale to an established industry or to an individual for domestic use. As water pump dealers, it is better for the business to invest where the demands lay.

3. Better for Environment: Every time someone plugs in anything, the natural resources of the world get depleted. Hence, as conscious citizens of any country, the need for energy saving equipments and products is recognized by everyone. Apart from the self-consciousness, there is a huge load on industries to leave behind good environmental footprints as well as follow the government mandates when it comes to energy consumption. These energy efficient Kirloskar water pumps make it easier to see to these mandates and limits and take one step closer to sustainable development.

4. Reduced Downtime: The better parts used and the overall structure of these pumps is aimed at ensuring not only a smooth but also efficient running. This increases the quality of the product and reduces the possibilities of any breakdown or downtime of the machinery.
