Sizing Pumps for Cooling Towers 

A free supplier webinar presented by Grundfos

Broadcast live Tuesday, March 12 at 3 p.m. ET 

Learn to correctly select the pump types and then size them for cooling tower applications in commercial buildings, industrial, and other applications. Should you choose a split case, vertical turbine, end suction, vertical inline multistage or other pump type? What determines the flow rate required? How is the pumping head to be calculated? How do we avoid NPSH and cavitation issues and other suction problems such as vortexing and imbalanced suction inlet flow?

Also discussed will be choice of proper controls to assure that the pump is operating in allowable areas of its curve and that the pumping system is operating with the greatest possible efficiency and the lowest possible overall Life Cycle Costs, including a reduction in the need for cleaning and maintenance of the tower.
