Hamworthy Sees the Value of PUMP-FLO Electronic Catalogs
LACEY, Washington - October
6, 2011 - PUMP-FLO™ Solutions (An Engineered Software Business)
the leading provider of software solutions to the fluid handling
industry, announced that Hamworthy, a high technology
marine pump manufacturer, has chosen PUMP-FLO Solutions to create
an electronic pump catalog for use in the PIPE-FLO® system design
software and PUMP-FLO selection software. Under terms of the
agreement, Hamworthy has chosen to make available their centrifugal
pump line catalog to the PUMP-FLO and Engineered Software user-base
through the Engineered Software website.
Hamworthy, headquartered in Poole
(UK), serves not only the marine industry but also gas & oil
and has branched out into general industrial as well. Hamworthy
pump catalogs will soon be available free on the Engineered
Software websites for download and use by the PIPE-FLO, Flow of
Fluids and PUMP-FLO software users.
"Many of the pump manufacturers'
catalogs we offer are a direct result of a pump user or system
designer's request. In this case, our mutual customer, Transocean,
actually requested their catalog through support as they use the
PIPE-FLO® software. The manufacturers understand the opportunity
afforded them by making their catalogs available to the system
designers. Naturally these requests are taken seriously and we make
them a priority whenever possible," said Michael Blondin, Chief
Operating Officer for Engineered Software, Inc.
The PUMP-FLO software allows users
to search across a manufacturers' pump catalog to generate a
dynamic pump curve based on a system design point search.
Additional search criteria include fluid properties, motor sizing,
NPSH calculations, pump limits, and system operating points. Once a
dynamic pump curve is generated, users have the ability to trim
impeller diameters, adjust operating speeds, and dynamically
generate electronic curves & data sheet reports. The PUMP-FLO
selection engine is developed by Engineered Software, Inc. and is
fully integrated into the PIPE-FLO Professional program used to
design, simulate, analyze and optimize fluid piping systems.
