Pump System Optimization Overview
Course Description
Pumping systems account for a significant portion of a facility's energy use in many industries. In the majority of pumping systems, energy added to the working fluid by the pump is much greater than required by the process. The excess energy generates heat, noise and vibration that increases system maintenance costs. It also results in over-sizing piping system components such as pumps, process components, and control valves that increase capital costs. Understanding how to assess pumps systems and identify and quantify pump system energy consumption is essential in reducing excess energy consumption while improving reliability. To help pump users run their systems more efficiently, a pump system assessment identifies problematic areas where the greatest opportunities for improvement exist. The Pumping System Optimization course will provides attendees with the information needed to conduct basic assessments of their pumping systems. Case studies will be discussed throughout the course. Hands-on group exercises are an integral part of this course including: How to estimate the annual energy cost of a pumping system, how to match a system curve/pump curve and determine if the right pump is being used and how to improve a pumping system and the life cycle costs of each improvement.
