Water Connections: Introducing 'Grundfos for Engineers'

Aug. 28, 2015
Imagine all the knowledge, information and tools you need to specify a highly technical pump system in one place. That's exactly what the new Grundfos for Engineers website gives you -- while also helping you to save time on complex tasks. Launched by the global pump manufacturer, the website addresses common, daily challenges faced by consulting engineers and system designers.
The total cost of owning a pump over its entire life is about far more than the purchase price.

The Grundfos for Engineers website, launched by the global pump manufacturer, addresses common, daily challenges faced by consulting engineers and system designers. For instance, a simple sizing tool allows you to enter duty points and then search for matches by application, pump design or family. To simplify decision-making, there is also a huge range of downloadable product and application material, case stories and video insights from experts.

The site also features an online training tool and information platform called Grundfos Ecademy. It gives you free access to a range of training modules that you can complete at your own pace and which can count towards professional accreditation.

Most importantly, Grundfos for Engineers is designed to deliver up-to-date knowledge and insights on technical specification challenges related to applications, products and industries. Featured themes highlight common issues and provide information to help you address them.

"We know from conversations with engineers that time is a scarce resource and that keeping up to date within their area of expertise is key to their professional performance," said Morten Bach Jensen, Group Vice President, Group Marketing and Sales Development, Grundfos. "Grundfos for Engineers is designed to provide quick and easy access to relevant tools and knowledge -- a site made for engineers, by engineers."

KNOW-HOW IN THE SPOTLIGHT

If you've ever wondered about the breakdown of a submersible pump's life cycle costs, a current theme on the site explores the subject in detail. It might surprise you to learn that only 5 percent relates to the initial investment, and 10 percent to maintenance, while operational costs account for as much as 85 percent. An efficient system solution can reduce energy consumption by up to 50 percent. You can use the site's SP Energy Tool for an indication of the savings you could potentially make in your system.

This theme's video takes you on a tour showing the manufacturing process of Grundfos SP pumps. From their stainless steel construction, stringent quality control, unrivalled sand resistance and thorough testing, you can see why these pumps are renowned around the world.

INFORMATION AND ANSWERS JUST A FEW TAPS AWAY

Grundfos for Engineers is ideal for anyone wanting to find pump systems knowledge quickly, and it delivers an opportunity for engineers to optimize specification tasks promptly.
