Topic: Demystifying Pumping Curves
Presented by: Tony Furst MSEd, CPD, LEED AP Senior Systems Engineer – Commercial Training, Taco
Pump curves are a critical piece in the selection and application of pumps, regardless of whether they are for domestic water service, fire service or HVAC. Are you confused by the terms “design flow” or “rated flow”? What about variable speed curves? NPSHr and NPSHa? What does pump efficiency mean? How about “rated BHP versus Peak Power BHP”? What effect do specific gravity and density have on a pump curve, what about fluid temperature? Being able to read and understand pump curves and use the information to get the best pump selection as well as being able to use the curve to verify performance is a critical skill for providing the most energy efficient and low maintenance systems. At the conclusion of this class the attendees will have a thorough understanding of pump curves for all applications.
Bio: In his role, Tony works with the area sales directors across all US business units to drive complex technical solutions utilizing all of Taco’s products. Additionally, he provides high level technical applications support and training to our channel partners.
