Tough jobs are no match for Xylem Water Solutions South Africa’s new range of Lowara e-NSC pumps. The new Lowara e-NSC heavy duty end suction pumps are designed to take on the most challenging water related problems at the lowest costs. By combining high efficiency with high flexibility in terms of installation, material options and temperature, the new Lowara e-NSC series is the natural choice for a vast number of Industrial and Building applications. The robust design, different bearing frame sizes and stainless steel replaceable wear-rings ensure a long service life. The Lowara e-NSC pump’s easy maintenance will also reduce downtime.

Constantly working towards a greener future, the new Lowara e-NSC series has been designed to offer end-users the most energy-efficient solution possible. It has a Minimum Efficiency Index  well above the level required by the ErP Directive’s 2015 update – and uses IE3 motors, which require very low operation costs. This offers long-term economic benefits to clients. The ErP Ecodesign Directive 2009/2015/CE supports the sustainable and economic use of available energy resources. Its main goals are encouraging ecological design and fighting against climate change by reducing CO2 emissions to the atmosphere.

When combined with Xylem Water Solution South Africa’s Hydrovar pump controller, the Lowara e-NSC’s pump speed can be reduced by 50% to save as much as 82.5% of power consumption, compared to a traditional pump. Given the scale of many commercial and industrial heating systems, this can significantly reduce a building’s energy costs without having an impact on system performance.

In order to cater best for the ever changing needs of the Industrial Building Services market, Lowara’s e-NSC end suction pump is available in six different sizes ranging from DN100 to DN300, and can reach pump flows of up to 1,800 m³/h. With a head of up to 120m the e-NSC series can perform to a maximum pressure of 16 bars and pump water ranging from -20°C to +140°C. An extended temperature version is also available which can transport water from -40°C up to +180°C. “With the electricity costs on the rise, our energy-saving e-NSC range can provide end-users an avenue to reduce these bills and improve the overall efficiency of their HVAC system. The new Lowara e-NSC series offer our customers a long term economical pumping solution,” said Ernst Viljoen, Growth Centre Manager: Applied Water Systems at Xylem Water Solutions South Africa.

As a leading provider of intelligent industrial pumps and related technologies, Xylem Water Solutions South Africa’s new Lowara e-NSC range also incorporates a number of innovative features. These include mechanical face seal options to eliminate leakages, which are available in different materials including the standard mechanical seal configuration (Silicon, Carbon, EPDM). Casing materials options range from cast iron to duplex stainless steel – to cater for any liquid which may need to be pumped. It is suitable for a variety of applications, including: water transport, hydronic heating and chiller systems, fire systems.

With decades of experience, Xylem is the world leader in energy efficient water technology in a number of industries. The Lowara e-NSC pump range is yet another example of Xylem’s ability to create efficient systems and sustainable solutions all rolled into one.
