Armstrong Fluid Technology introduced two new series of horizontal end suction pumps featuring integrated controls for greater energy savings. 

The IPS (Integrated Pumping System) 4000 is an advanced multi-zone control that directly integrates with pumping units to optimize energy performance, system handling, and installation. 

Since the introduction of the Energy Savings Dashboard, Armstrong Design Envelope HVAC solutions have saved customers more than 630 million kWh of energy, representing a carbon emission savings of more than 212,000 tons of CO₂ and a cost saving of more than $60 million. 

The manufacturer held 10 events in the U.S. and Canada last year. They were so successful that Armstrong expanded its scope in 2015 to include international locations such as Mumbai, India; and Dubai, United Arab Emirates. 

Interfacing seamlessly with the existing building automation system (BAS), the Opti-Visor™ controls the key energy-using components of the chiller plant, providing the optimal operating settings for equipment such as water-cooled variable-flow chillers, compressors, cooling towers, and condenser water pumps. 

The new COMPASS circulator helps contractors and wholesalers with easy selection, fast installation, and extremely broad performance capabilities for application to a wide variety of installations, the company said.
