Industrial motor systems represent the largest single electrical end use and represent 25% of all electricity sales. Improvements to pump systems represents the greatest opportunity for improvement with a midrange savings of 20.1% (Reference 1). Pumping systems are widespread, they providedomestic services, commercial and agricultural services, infrastructural services, and industrial services for food processing, chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and mechanical industries. Although pumps are offered to markets as individual machines, they provide a service only when operating as part of a system. The energy and materials consumed by such a system depend on the design of the pump, proper pump test acceptance grade selection, the design of the installation, and the way the system is operated.These factors are interdependent and must be carefully matched to each other, and remain so throughout their working lives to ensure the lowest energy consumption and cost. The initial purchase price is a small part of the life cycle cost (LCC) for high usage pumps. Operating requirements may sometimes override energy cost considerations but an optimum solutionis still possible.By better understanding all the components that make up the total cost of ownership, operators will be able to dramatically reduce energy, operational, and maintenance costs. Excessive waste and energy usage are important factors in global environmental pollution. Reducing energy and material usage also benefit the user by reducing costs.LCC analysis is a management tool that can help companies minimize waste and maximize energy efficiency for many types of systems, including pumping systems. The Hydraulic Institute and Europump have developed Pump Life Cycle Costs: A Guide to LCC Analysis for Pumping Systems to help plant owners and operators apply the LCC methodology to pumpingsystems.
