Intelligent Pumps Selection

ARC has been conducting research related to Intelligent Pump technology for over two decades.  Pumps have outgrown their traditional role as the mechanical workhorses of manufacturing with the addition of digital technology and have entered the process control domain.  Based on this research, ARC analysts have developed a comprehensive set of criteria to help you select the best intelligent pump solution available in the market.

Intelligent Pumps Overview

In their new role, Intelligent Pumps have the potential to improve process control, enable better management of their health, and assist plants in reducing total energy consumption.  The value proposition of intelligent pumps is high enough to be a process control game changer, yet overcoming the work culture in the process industries is proving to be the greatest challenge for suppliers as manufacturers and owner-operators drag their feet into incorporating pumps into their control schemes.

Selecting the correct intelligent pumps can be crucial to the operation of your operations.  Failure to utilize digital commands and information correctly can negatively impact production, operations efficiencies, and safe operation.
