Energy and economy calculations





Save energy with the N-pump
A frequently occurring problem with almost all types of impellers is that fibres and other particles tend to build up on the impeller vanes. For instance rags can build up on the vanes and in worse cases even block the pump. In most cases this causes a decreased hydraulic efficiency for the pump and subsequently, increases power consumption.

The N-technology however brings a solution to the problem: With its extremely high non-clogging ability it ensures a trouble free operation and a high efficiency that is maintained over time.

This results in a pump that has a very high potential of minimising the consumed energy (and in some cases also the operational costs) and therefore the total cost for a pump.
