Energy Audit of pumping system | Methodology Adopted for Pump Energy Audit | SEA Energy

What is Pump Audit?

A pump audit is a scrutinize of your pump system. It scrutinize the overall efficiency of your pumps and reveals how much energy could be saved by switching to a different pump / pipe line changes. What is more, it clearly shows the monetary impact of those savings. Because we believe that energy conservation is most efficient when it benefits everyone.

SEA Energy Pump Audit

Many pump systems are waste energy and money day after day. SEA Energy Auditors can help you determine whether your system is one of them. A pump audit will tell you exactly how much you could save by optimizing your system. And then we can help you achieve those savings.

Why Pump Energy Audit?

Pumps account for 10% of global electrical power consumption
Two third of all pumps use up to 60% too much energy
If every business switched to a high efficiency pump system there could be global savings of 4% of the total electricity consumption - comparable with the residential electricity consumption of 1 billion people.
The life cycle cost of a pump reveal that the energy costs eats away 85%, maintenance costs 10% and the initial investment of the product is a meager 5%

The reasons for high power consumption in pumps are

Improper selection and operation
Over-design
Improper layout
Old inefficient pump

Why Save Energy ?

Energy is one of the key barometers in identifying a country’s economic development and hence more energy saved improves the country’s security as also economy. Higher energy needs results in huge investments in the form of setting up power plants etc. Depleting natural resources; Oil will last for 45 years, Gas 65 years and Coal over 200 years - is quite disturbing and thus the need to save energy becomes inevitable. It’s an initiative for a clean, green and sustainable environment.

What Can You save from Pump Energy Audit

A pump energy audit helps you take affirmative action in order to save energy. The pump audit tells you exactly how much you could save with new, more efficient pump technology and how long it takes to see a return on your investment.

When energy accounts for a staggering 85% of the total cost,that’s where you can achieve real savings. In many systems, more than half of all the energy consumed by the pumps could be saved. Yes, more than half. It’s not just something we say it’s something our pump audits have proven.

The reduced energy costs alone mean that new pumps can pay for themselves in very little time. In each case, the pump audit report will show the exact number of months, usually around 18 to 20. After that, the savings translate into pure profit for you. Year after year.

SEA Energy want to actively help conserve the world’s energy resources. We do so by following environmentally responsible principles ourselves, but even more importantly, we create technology that has a real impact on energy consumption worldwide.

One important factor is our firm belief that everyone should have the opportunity to make an informed choice. The pump audits are one example. Best of all, our products make energy savings financially viable. And that’s when things really start having an effect.

We believe in building strong relationships based on trust and commitment. Our services exceed expectations in improving business bottom lines. We promise and deliver on time completion of projects.
