Pump Systems Optimization: For Wastewater Facilities and other Industries Hosted By: ABB Baldor Course Date: October 22, 2015 Time: 8:00am – 5:00pm Location: Kennedy Industries, 4925 Holtz Drive, Wixom, MI 48393 Registration: http://estore.pumps.org/Education/PSOBaldorABB.aspx Presented by: Program Description This program will provide in depth instruction on the methodology and opportunities to increase energy efficiency in pumping systems. Pumping systems are amongst the highest energy consumers in industrial plant operations and frequently offer one of the greatest energy cost savings opportunities. The attendee will learn how to assess and consider options to improve both efficiency and reliability of pumping systems. Energy assessments and various options for increasing efficiency and determining cost effectiveness will be discussed. Course Objectives Upon completion of the program, participants will be able to: • List the benefits of a pump system energy assessment • Define pumping system optimization and its benefits • Describe the fundamentals of a pump • Explain the interaction of a pump with the pumping system • Identify options for pump system optimization • List the areas to review for pre-screening pump systems • Understand more about variable frequency drives • Understand pump and motor life-cycle cost analysis • Develop a pump system assessment action plan • Understand ASME pump system energy assessment standard and ISO 14414 pump system energy assessment • Start to learn how to manage a pump system audit Who Should Attend The training is designed for engineers, operators and maintenance personnel involved with pump systems who are seeking to reduce energy costs, reduce maintenance and increase reliability at industrial sites. Facilities in water and wastewater, power generation, and manufacturing will benefit from improving both energy efficiency and reliability of pumping systems. Certified Course Instructors Ray T.
