Are your pumps helping—or hurting—your bottom line?
In the cover story of the latest Empowering Pumps Digital Magazine, Hydro dives into how operating pumps away from their Best Efficiency Point (BEP) impacts cost, reliability, and energy usage.
With most systems already in service and not slated for replacement, the real opportunity lies in optimizing what’s already installed. This article explores practical steps to boost efficiency, extend pump life, and cut operational expenses—without sacrificing performance.

Before committing to a full pump replacement, consider the power of virtual retrofitting with CFTurbo. Their advanced software tools offer a cost-effective and efficient way to analyze and optimize existing pump hydraulics.
A recent case study in the Netherlands showcases the effectiveness of this approach:
• Significant Performance Gains: CFTurbo helped increase the flow rate by 21% (to 340 m³/min) and the head by 33% (to 6.0 m).
• Cost-Effective Solution: By retaining the existing impeller, significant cost savings were achieved.
• Enhanced Operation: The retrofit ensured cavitation-free operation and met power requirements.
CFTurbo's virtual retrofit approach offers a sustainable and efficient alternative to complete pump replacement. Read more: empoweringpumps.com/cfturbo-…#VirtualRetrofit#PumpOptimization#SustainableEngineering#CFTurbo@CFturboInc
