PARSIPPANY, N.J. (Sept. 13, 2016)—Manufacturing plants, commercial buildings and municipalities all rely on pumping systems for daily operations. In the manufacturing sector alone, pumps represent 27 percent of electricity used by industrial systems. As pumping systems across all industrial sectors represent the highest energy use, they also represent the greatest potential to save energy and reduce maintenance related expenses.
PARSIPPANY, N.J. (Sept. 12, 2016) – Hidden to the general public, pumps are constantly at work behind the scenes providing clean water, heating and cooling, generating energy, and ensuring we can continue to manufacture and produce goods. While commercial and industrial pumping systems can account for more than 25 percent of electricity use in North America, the Hydraulic Institute (HI) and its members are working hard to reduce that load.
PARSIPPANY, N.J.
