Once the need to up-rate existing equipment has been established, a feasibility study is performed to establish the scope of the upgrade to meet the end user and system requirements. From this, a simple cost vs. benefits analysis can be performed that typically demonstrates significant savings. Typical examples of payback periods for multi-stage pumps would be 20 to 60 days for a high flow unit, one to two years for increasing the pump efficiency and two to three years for increasing the Mean Time Between Repair (MTBR).

The following are examples of typical upgrades that delivered substantial benefits for our customers.
