The Registration for This Event is CLOSED

Training Overview

The Pumping System Assessment Tool (PSAT) helped pump users assess the efficiency of pumping system operations. PSAT uses achievable pump performance data from Hydraulic Institute standards and motor performance data from the MotorMaster+ database to calculate potential energy and associated cost savings. PSAT was developed for the U.S. Department of Energy and relies on field measurements of flow rate, head, and either motor power or current to perform the assessment. PSAT quickly estimates existing pump and motor efficiency and calculates potential savings.

Benefits

	An overview of pump, motor, adjustable speed drive, and fluid system performance characteristics
	Practical issues involved in field measurements of fluid and electrical data
	Use of the PSAT software, including application to real-world situations (case studies)
	Energy management references and software for pump systems
	Analytical tools for conducting self-led pump system assessments and optimization programs.
	Contacts for technical and financial assistance.

Who Should Attend

	Plant and Facility Managers
	Energy and Mechanical Engineering staff
	Operation and Maintenance staff
	Energy Professionals
	Industrial and Commercial Facilities
