Tsurumi launches drainage KTZE pump
Adapter reduces the cost of pump replacement
The new drainage KTZE pump is based on Tsurumi’s existing KTZ range, which has already been tested and proven by several heavy-duty applications. The new model is available in seven variants from 1.5 to 3.7 KW of motor
The Flygt Connect adaptor is specifically designed to enable Xylem’s range of submersible wastewater pumps, the Flygt N-pump, to connect to existing pump installations, which is particularly useful in the replacement process of underperforming pumps.
power at 400 V. The pump, depending on the model 430-1440 l / min, creates a maximum lifting head of 36.5 M. The discharge of the pump can be adjusted either horizontally or vertically, which helps to keep the pump standing in the direction of discharge. The pump starts when the sensor identifies the correct water level and stops as soon as the water level drops below a certain point. The user can manually adjust the level required in order to maintain the amount of water desired. Water contaminated with granular solids up to 8.5mm in diameter will be easily pumped away using the KTZE.

According to Xylem, one of the benefits of the Flygt N-pump is its patented self-cleaning design. The build-up of raggy material around a pump’s impeller is one of the main causes of pump failure. However, the Flygt N-pump’s selfcleaning design enables it to reduce the build-up of raggy material and solids which land on the leading edges of the impeller. These materials are pushed

Bentley water distribution software updates Bentley Systems has announced the availability of its WaterCad, WaterGems, and Hammer V8i (Select series 5) information modelling software for the analysis and design of water distribution systems. The software’s BIM advancements are designed to extend information mobility across water system planning, design and operations – improving collaboration within and between these phases of the infrastructure lifecycle and facilitating better decision making for enhanced project and system performance. New real-time-based simulation capabilities in the Select series 5 releases of WaterCad, WaterGems, and Hammer V8i improve visibility, forecasting, and decision-making support for both modelers and operators. System modelers could benefit from the supervisory
control and data acquisition (Scada) data being automatically imported into their hydraulic models for use as initial conditions. System operators could also benefit from the ability to publish model results to the utility’s existing Scada system control screen, helping forecast operating conditions. Unlike software that aggregates water usage data from multiple water customers to a single spatial location, the WaterCad and WaterGems V8i (Select series 5) software explicitly models water demands for individual water customers in their correct physical locations. This is designed to provide modelers with better visibility and control over where demands are allocated, helping them manage those demands with finer granularity. www.bentley.com www.worldpumps.com
