Energy efficiency is a top priority for industries today, as reducing power consumption directly impacts operational costs and sustainability. Pumps, integral to numerous industrial processes, often account for a large portion of energy usage. Optimising equipment performance like pumpsets becomes crucial as businesses strive to cut energy costs.
VEMC is one of the leading Kirloskar pump dealers, enabling energy efficiency with the SP coupled pumpset. These pumpsets are designed to consume 16.5% less energy while delivering highly efficient outcomes. This blog will explore how KBL’s SP Coupled Pumpset makes energy conservation easier.
High-Efficiency Design: Made to Save
The core of the SP Coupled Pumpset’s energy-saving capability lies in its high-specific discharge. Its design ensures that the pump delivers the same volume of liquid using significantly less power than conventional pumpsets. The result?
A 16.5% reduction in energy consumption for the same task which can lead to substantial cost savings in large-scale industrial operations.
The pumpset minimises leakage using an advanced gland-packed/mechanical seal. The seal also reduces friction loss and protects the shaft from wear and tear. Hence, the pumpset lowers energy loss and extends the equipment’s operational life, reducing maintenance downtime.
IE5 Motors: Promoting Ultra-Premium Efficiency
A key innovation in KBL’s SP Coupled Pumpset is its IE5 motor, which is classified as an ultra-premium efficiency motor. IE5 motors are the highest efficiency class available, offering a significant leap over traditional motors in energy savings. Here’s how they empower industries with energy efficiency:
- Unlike permanent magnet motors, which can be costly and difficult to service, the IE5 motor in this pumpset is designed for ease of operation and local maintenance.
- The AC induction motor design does not include complex accessories or control equipment, making it reliable, affordable, and suited for various field conditions.
Whether dealing with extreme power fluctuations or harsh environmental factors, the pumpset guarantees reliability, enhanced equipment safety, and longevity.
Hydraulic Optimisation: Contributing to Lower Power Usage
One of the SP Coupled Pumpset’s greatest benefits is its sophisticated hydraulic optimisation, which guarantees a fluid and friction-free water or liquid flow path. This modification lowers energy losses and raises the pumping process’s general efficiency. The pump’s efficiency is further enhanced by its capacity to handle high flow rates and head ranges of up to 32 meters.
Precision Engineering: For Maximum Output
Precision engineering is key to its energy-saving potential. By incorporating tight tolerances in its manufacturing process, KBL ensures the components are perfectly aligned to minimise energy wastage.
For example, the non-clog impeller can handle suspended solids up to 40 mm, making it ideal for handling sewage, wastewater, and other challenging fluids without risking performance dips. The impeller is also coated with CED (Cathodic Electro Deposition) technology, enhancing corrosion resistance and ensuring a longer lifespan of uniform coating.
Precision engineering, combined with the IE5 motor’s high-grade insulation, guarantees durability, even in aggressive environments.
Choosing the Right Pumpset for Your Needs
When considering a pumpset for your industrial needs, consider factors such as system size, energy goals, and cost considerations.
However, SP Coupled pumpsets are the ideal choice regarding energy conservation. Their self-priming feature, which eliminates manual priming with a foot valve, and the optimum fan design for silent operation make them a trusted solution.
With this pumpset, industries can pump 75 litres per second with minimal energy wastage, making it ideal for wastewater handling, sewage treatment, dewatering applications and more.
