PARSIPPANY, N.J. - The Pump Systems Assessment Professional (PSAP) Live Virtual Prep Course brings participants together in a virtual classroom, where they receive training from an expert.
PSAPs meet rigorous required criteria to assess a pump system.
The initial purchase and installation cost of a new pumping system is a small portion of the life cycle cost of the pump.
PARSIPPANY, N.J. – The Hydraulic Institute (HI), under the approval of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), is seeking qualified individuals in North America to participate in the review process for the draft of the following updated standards: ANSI/HI 9.1-9.5 Pumps – General Guidelines, ANSI/HI 9.6.2 Rotodynamic Pumps – Assessment of Applied Nozzle Loads, and ANSI/HI 9.6.8 Rotodynamic Pumps – Guideline for Dynamics of Pumping Machinery..
Expert says while need for these services is “solid,” several factors contribute to the industry’s financial health.
PARSIPPANY, N.J. – The Hydraulic Institute (HI) announces the availability of its HI Pump Systems Matter (PSM) Basic Training platform to non-member organizations. Now, engineering, maintenance and other professionals across industries can gain access to critical insights to boost reliability, optimize efficiency, save energy and reduce costs of pump systems.
PARSIPPANY, N.Y. - Hydraulic Institute is partnering with Valve Manufacturers Association to host Virtual Market Outlook Workshop: Navigating the Recovery from coronavirus on Aug. 6-7. The event will feature live presentations, chat with speakers, small group discussions and one-on-one networking. For the first time, the event is open to anyone in the industry.
These are manually set and do not react to pump and system changes.
In some cases, sudden valve closures can cause high pressure spikes.
HOUSTON – Grundfos announced the appointment of Jim Swetye, Grundfos technical training manager, to serve on the Board of the Hydraulic Institute (HI) for 2020-2021 as vice president of education.
PARSIPPANY, N.J. - The Hydraulic Institute (HI) announces that its Energy Rating (ER) Program database of rated pumps has grown to include more than 9,400 products. Based on the U.S. Department of Energy’s Motor Market Assessment, pumps can account for 40 percent of energy usage in industrial fluid systems.
These bearings are located within a containment shell with no shaft exposed to atmosphere
A liquid-lubricated seal may have no visible leakage.
There has been an effort to upgrade pumps originally designed for packing to accommodate mechanical seals.
PARSIPPANY, N.J. – The Hydraulic Institute (HI) 2020 Annual Conference concluded with the gala and awards dinner, Thursday, Feb. 27, 2020 at the J.W. Marriott Starr Pass Resort & Spa in Tucson, Arizona. During the program, HI presented awards for the following categories:
