Users of the ePUMP-FLO software can select, evaluate, and analyze centrifugal pumps using the Goulds Pumps' electronic pump catalogs. ePUMP-FLO uses a powerful web-based search engine to select all the pumps that meet the user's specific criteria, from which they can select the best pump for the application.
After searching the chosen catalog, ePUMP-FLO then creates a list of pumps meeting the desired criteria. There are several categories for selecting the best pump and motor including speed, power motor size, NPSHr, design efficiency, and best efficiency point (BEP). Pump curves can then be displayed for comparison and evaluation.
PUMP-FLO software is currently used in some capacity by over 75 pump manufacturers and 65,000 customers in various industries.
