Product overview for E-pumps
Examples of E-pump applications
CRE, CRIE and CRNE pumps are the ideal solution in
a number of applications characterized by a need for
variable flow at constant pressure. The pumps are
suited for water supply systems and pressure boosting,
but also industrial applications.
Depending on the nature of the application, the pumps
offer energy-savings, increased comfort or improved
processing.
E-pumps in the service of industry
Industry uses a large number of pumps in many
different applications. Demands on pumps in terms of
pump performance and mode of operation make speed
control a must in many applications.
Below are mentioned some of the applications in which
E-pumps are often used.
Constant pressure
• Water supply,
• Washing and cleaning systems,
• Distribution from waterworks,
• Humidifying systems,
• Water treatment systems,
• Process boosting systems, etc.
Example: Within industrial water supply, E-pumps with
integrated pressure sensors are used to ensure a
constant pressure in the piping network. From the
sensor, the E-pump receives inputs about changes of
pressure as a result of changes in the consumption.
The E-pump responds to the input by adjusting the flow
until the pressure is equalized. The constant pressure
is stabilized once more on the basis of a preset
setpoint.
Constant temperature
• Air-conditioning systems at industrial plants,
• Industrial cooling systems,
• Industrial freezing systems,
• Casting and molding tools, etc.
Example: In industrial freezing systems, E-pumps with
temperature sensor increase comfort and lower
operating costs compared with pumps without a
temperature sensor.
An E-pump continuously adapts its performance to the
changing demands reflected in the differences in
temperature of the liquid circulating in the freezing
system. Thus, the lower the demand for cooling, the
smaller the quantity of liquid circulated in the system
and vice versa.
Constant flow
• Steam boiler systems,
• Condensate systems,
• Sprinkler irrigation systems,
• Chemical industry, etc.
Example: In a steam boiler, it is important to be able to
monitor and control pump operation to maintain a
constant level of water in the boiler.
By using an E-pump with level sensor mounted in the
boiler, it is possible to maintain a constant water level.
A constant water level ensures optimum and cost-
efficient operation as a result of a stabile steam
production.
Dosing
• Chemical industry (i.e. control of pH-values),
• Petrochemical industry,
• Paint industry
• Degreasing systems,
• Bleaching systems, etc.
Example: In the petrochemical industry, E-pumps with
pressure sensors are used as dosing pumps. The E-
pumps help to ensure that the correct mixture ratio is
achieved when more liquids are combined.
E-pumps functioning as dosing pumps improve
processing and offer energy-savings.
E-pumps in commercial building services
Commercial building services use E-pumps to maintain
a constant pressure or a constant temperature based
on a variable flow.
E-pumps are used in applications such as
Constant pressure
• Water supply in high-rise buildings i.e. office
buildings, hotels, etc.
Example: E-pumps with pressure sensors are used for
water supply in high-rise buildings to ensure a constant
pressure even at the highest draw-off point. As the
consumption pattern and by that the pressure changes
during the day, the E-pump continuously adapts its
performance until the pressure is equalized.
Constant temperature
• Air-conditioning systems in hotels, schools,
• Building cooling systems, etc.
Example: E-pumps are an excellent solution in
buildings where constant temperature is essential.
E-pumps keep the temperature constant in air-
conditioned high-rise glass buildings, irrespective of the
seasonal fluctuations of the out-door temperature, and
various heat impacts inside the building.
