How much energy do pumps really consume?

Pump energy consumption is directly proportional to the flow rate, the pump head, the efficiency of the pump and the motor.

In cooling applications, the energy provided to the pump itself and transferred to the water has to be compensated by the chillers. Therefore, pumping energy needs to be paid twice in cooling: at the pump and at the chiller.

- In heating systems, recent research* demonstrates that pumps represent 1.5 % of the annual energy consumption in buildings such as offices, schools, hospitals.
- In cooling systems, electrical pumping costs (constant flow distribution) represent 7 % to 17 % of the annual cooling energy consumption.

Our collaboration?
Heating and Cooling systems require a dedicated approach throughout all stages of a project.
Each project has unique challenges for all involved. Whether you are a consultant, contractor, installer or owner, we can understand yours.
Time is money and right from the start we can help you save both. Because Force Ibiza shares knowledge and works so closely with you to optimise design, we can reduce both upfront and long-term costs. Consult our website: http://forceibiza.com/

Hydronic pipes sizing?

Criteria for sizing pipes are different from country to country
but all have a common basis.

Using small pipe sizes:

- decreases the installation investment cost,
- means higher linear differential pressure and velocities which leads to: high pumping costs and differential pressure variations with the load, high circulation noise and erosion (particle transport).

Using large pipe sizes:

- increases the investment cost,
- means lower pumping costs, differential pressure variations, circulation noise, erosion: results in low circulation velocities that causes deposit of heavier particles leading to clogging by accumulation.

Consequently the generally used procedure consists in selecting the smallest pipe size that satisfies a maximum linear pressure drop and a maximum velocity. Consult our website: https://forceibiza.com/

What is Hyselect?

HySelect is a computer program that helps you to control your hydronic system from design stage throughout the building’s lifetime.
Together with the balancing instrument TA SCOPE it helps you to obtain;

The most economical hydronic design

HySelect makes it easy to determine the right valve size, pre-setting values and the most economical system design.

You simply put into HySelect;

- Pipe lengths
- Terminal unit design flow
- Differential pressure.

In return you will get;

- Required pump head
- Detailed lists of optimally sized products, like control and balancing valves
- Plant structure (hydronic network) for uploading to balancing instruments
- Total length of pipes by diameter
- Water volume in piping

In hydronic cooling and heating systems, we make sure specific needs are met with the right range of carefully chosen components that all work optimally together. Which saves on installation time. …

The TA-SCOPE: your best friend for maximizing energy efficiency and keeping full control of your system.

TA-SCOPE is a tough, effective balancing instrument for measuring and documenting of differential pressure, flow, temperature and power in hydronic systems. Robust, accurate and easy-to-use, TA-SCOPE delivers quicker, more cost-efficient balancing and enables rapid troubleshooting.

Why to use modern components?

To ensure performance and reliability for contractors

High-quality solutions made for years of service protect performance levels and reputations. Having one supplier for all vital areas of a hydronic distribution system helps keep the project organised and well managed throughout the process.

To ensure speed and simplicity for installers

An integrated range of components designed for easy connection makes installation faster and more straightforward. The knowledge that each component is made to work harmoniously with the overall system ensures piece of mind and a reduction, if not eradication, of installation downtime.

To ensure efficiency and comfort for owners & investors

Increasing a building’s efficiency increases its monetary value and the respect people have for it. By optimising indoor climate quality it not only means extra comfort but also a reduction in overall energy usage thus resulting in increased revenue. Consult our website: https://forceibiza.com/

Actions speak louder than words

A revolution has begun with increasing global awareness of climate change and the urgent call for action. In order to fight against the changing climate outside we need to start by changing the climate inside.

We make sure that in your cooling and heating systems the specific needs are met with the right range of carefully chosen components, that all work optimally together. Which saves on installation time, makes installation systems readily controllable so they provide the intended indoor climate at minimum operating cost, for the design consultant, gives an inexpensive insurance policy against loss of professional reputation, for the operations staff, gives a potent prescription for trouble-free operation and ease of maintenance, and for the property owner, gives a long-term guarantee against excessive energy costs.
