Armstrong In The Media

Armstrong Fluid Technology’s Pump Manager, a cloud-based subscription service that enables Active Performance Management, has been selected as a Finalist in the 2020 AHR Expo Innovation Awards Competition.

With the introduction of the UK Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) policy, the number of companies needing to measure and provide usage data to the UK government will almost treble. Under the earlier Carbon Reduction Commitment around 4,000 businesses had to report their energy and emissions data, but the change in criteria will mean that the requirement will now affect around 11,900 companies. The decision aligns the government’s goals with the G20 Financial Stability Board's Taskforce on Climate-related financial disclosures.

The Armstrong Design Envelope product range includes embedded software for monitoring and reporting performance after installation which collects and reports data more accurately than a flow meter. So investing in replacement pumps (and harnessing their connectivity and in-built performance management technology) can provide the increased level of environmental reporting data necessary to meet the demands of the SECR policy, whilst making immediate improvements in energy efficiency.

Armstrong Fluid Technology’s has announced the availability of an innovative new capability on Pump Manager, an Active Performance Management Service, that can detect and alert building managers about impending pump cavitation.

Effective immediately, Design Envelope pumps will have the capability to detect cavitation and deliver an alert to a previously established contact.

It is time to rethink how energy upgrade projects should be managed. It frequently takes as long as a year and a half to reach the implementation stage of a capital expenditure energy saving project. Typically, the first 6 months are spent collecting data, months 6 to 9 involve a data analysis phase, then technology solutions and a business plan are developed in months 9 to 12. Over the next 6 months stakeholders make their decisions until (18 months after initial discussions) the project is implemented. During that year and a half, not a single kW of energy is saved. With the latest generation of Armstrong Design Envelope (DE) pump technology, however, building owners and occupiers could be saving energy from day 1, month 1 of the initial discussions.

Earlier this year Armstrong Fluid Technology was an exhibitor at AHR Expo 2019, the world’s largest HVACR event. It was a very busy three days of product demonstrations, networking, and idea sharing. The entire event was documented by numerous industry publications. Below is a summary of items related to Armstrong Fluid Technology.
