  • Saving energy and reducing costs with energy-efficient pumps

Saving energy? SKS helps optimise your processes with energy-efficient pumps

Pumps are essential in a wide variety of industries and processes, varying from water supplies to food production. Like the beating heart of processes, they move matter from A to B. To produce foodstuffs or pharmaceutical substances, various hygienic pumps are used, which ensure a general movement of product or facilitate evaporation, high pressure, priming and CIP return tasks. Depending on the application and the product flowing through the pump, we can recommend the right type of pump for you, such as a centrifugal, twin screw or positive displacement pump.

Optimal processes

Pumps account for 10 to 20% of the total worldwide energy use and the demand for pump capacity is increasing more and more. At the same time, we are under increasing pressure to save energy and reduce our ecological footprint. Efficient, energy saving pumps are therefore a must. Energy-efficient pumps make the entire production process smoother (and consequently more economical). This results in fewer faults and you end up saving energy and therefore money, a win-win solution in other words. A pump can be set up locally in such a way that it does its job as best and effectively as possible. And you get the most out of a minimum amount of energy!


Durable products from SKS

Besides the type of pump, the performance of a pump is also influenced by the size of the motor, options such as a variable speed drive and the pump specifications. All these influences are visible on a so-called pump curve: a graph showing the pump's influence on overall power consumption.

Find out how much you can save

Even modest improvements in the efficiency of pumps can lead to significant results globally with regard to energy use and the environment. At SKS, we contribute to this by actively starting a discussion with you to arrive at the optimum solutions. Our sales engineers are happy to establish with you what the right pump would be for your application. Thanks to their vast knowledge and the scope of the delivery programme, they always take an independent view. For each pump in our range, they can also calculate with you which savings in power consumption and/or reduction in CO2 emissions can be achieved. Download one of our reports to get an idea of the possibilities. In this case: An ROI of 42% and a reduction of CO2 of approximately 25%!
