Introduction2

PumpMeter. Innovation

for more transparency.

Imagine you are planning to buy a new car. A long list o requirements

inuences your choice o model. Ater al l – what use would a modern car

be i it did not come equipped with accessories such as uel consumption

or gear-change indicator? These indicators are the key to fnding out how

to avoid unnecessary wear and uel consumption and save costs as a result.

What these indicators do or your car, PumpMeter can now do or your

pumps. Statistical analyses have revealed that most pumps do not run at

their best efciency point. The reasons or this are oten to be ound in

deviations between anticipated parameters and the system’s actual situation.

KSB’s innovative PumpMeter shows your pump’s current operating pointand provides the answers to your questions: Will running my pump at this

operating point have an adverse effect on its availability? Can my pump

provide efcient and cost-saving operation?

■ Transparency of pump operation

■ Securing your pump’s availability

■ Identifying potential energy savings

■ Saving time, energy and money

Product Description and Benets4

With PumpMeter you can seehow your pump is operating.

PumpMeter calculates the dierential pressure and estab-

lishes the pump’s operating point by measuring the

pump’s suction and discharge pressure around the clock.

The measured and calculated values are shown in alter-

nation on a user-riendly display. A typical pump curve

graph shows you where your pump is currently operating.

A load profle is established in the course o the pump’s

operation using all data compiled, and inormation is

provided on the pump’s actual operating mode. You then

have the chance to implement optimisation measures

and save costs.

Our KSB experts will help you interpret the operating data displayed and will show you how tomake optimal use o potential energy savings.

Interpretation of current operating pointPumpMeterdisplay

Very low to possibly zero ow rate.*

Low ow.*

Necessary to take action ifpump is permanently operatedwithin this range.

Optimisation requiredin the long term.

Optimum operating point. The pump runs at itsbest efciency point.

Excessively high ow rate, possibly

above the maximum.

Necessary to take action ifpump is permanently operatedwithin this range.

*Depending on the characteristic curve type , no dierentiation is made between the curve's frst two quarters, i.e. during

low-ow operating conditions, and the corresponding segments o the pump curve are di splayed at the same time.

The extra benet: PumpMeter is more favourably priced than conventional measuring equipment*.

PumpMeter’s advantages speak for themselves:

■ Provides all important measurement variables

■ Allows on-site display of all relevant operating data

■ Calculates the pump’s operating point

■ Establishes a load prole

■ Displays information on the optimisation potential

by means of the energy efciency icon (EFF)

*such as pressure gauges and transmitters

Savings Potential6

Recognise the potential

for energy savings.

PumpMeter continuously analyses your pump’s operating

data and, in so doing, establishes its energy saving poten-

tial. I the energy efciency icon (EFF) is displayed, it

means that your pump could signifcantly beneft rom

measures to save energy. Employing the PumpDrivevariable speed system might be an appropriate option.

Retroftting PumpDrive is straightorward: PumpMeter

provides all parameters needed to employ PumpDrive;

this, in combination with the new Plug&Pump principle,

greatly simplies PumpDrive’s parameterisation.

*Further inormation on SES can be ound at www.ksb.com/SES

A KSB expert is on hand to give you detailed inormation on measures to increase the energy efciency o your pump:

rom simply retroftting a PumpDrive to providing a comprehensive analysis o the entire system via KSB’s SES (System

Efciency Service)*: Get in contact – we would be pleased to provide more inormation.

Operation at or

around the BEP.

The operating point moves

across a wide range of the

pump’s characteristic curve.

No action required.

The pump runs at its bestefciency point.

Take action for optimisation.

Signicant energy saving

potential can be realised, e.g. by

using a variable speed system.

Borderline operating range,risk of pump and/or motor

overload.

Take action for optimisation.

Increased availability and

energy efciency can be achieved

by trimming the impeller.

Load profile (examples) Recommendation



Commissioning 7

PumpMeter comes mounted to the pump as standard

making commissioning straightorward. (The pump can

be optionally ordered without PumpMeter.)

PumpMeter simplifes commissioning o both the pumpand the retroftted PumpDrive variable speed system as you

can always keep an eye on the pump’s operating point.

The connection o PumpMeter to your process control

system using standardised interaces allows you to have

central access to relevant data.

See for yourself how easy it is

to start up PumpMeter.
