T he new single-stage volute cas ing KSB EtaLine pump requires a smaller footprint while maintain ing high outputs, as required in tight industrial applications where space is at a premium. The standard range of dry installed EtaLine pumps varies in output from 1 400 l/min to 3 000 l/min making them suitable for numerous applications in tight quarters where performance and reliability are key. KSB EtaLine pumps are engineered to excel in air conditioning, heating systems, water supply, heat recovery, industrial re circulation and cleaning circuits, with key features most notably including a space

EtaLine pumps represent the pinnacle of fluid management technology,” says KSB Pumps and Valves market area manager, Dylan Mitchell. “With their innovative design and advanced features, our pumps offer unparalleled performance, flexibility and efficiency for applications in industrial pumping.” In addition to the cutting-edge design of our standard EtaLine pumps, the EtaLine Pro pump incorporates advanced intelligence features, including a VSD with remote capabilities and our user-friendly flow manager App. These features enable users to have greater control over their pumping systems, simplifying operation and maintenance processes from remote locations if required. Available Intelligent settings allow the pumps to adapt to the conditions for op timal performance, regardless of demand and flow rates, and allow vastly enhanced efficiency as a result. “These pumps are designed for efficien cy and longevity from the bottom up, and contribute to sustainable manufacturing practices by reducing material usage and weight, aligning with global efforts to mini mise environmental impacts. Their Carbon Neutral production process reflects KSB's commitment to sustainability and corpo rate responsibility,” says Mitchell. “With a focus on local manufacturing, we at KSB aim to expand our market share and solidify our position as an industry leader in fluid management solutions,” he concludes. www.ksb.com/en-za

saving inline design that allows for vertical or horizontal installation, and is ideal for environments with limited space such as roofs or attics. Unlike traditional long coupled pumps, EtaLine pumps eliminate unnecessary space requirements while maintaining exceptional performance. Despite their compact design, the EtaLine pumps boast impressive effi ciency, delivering reliable performance without the need for balancing valves. This efficiency is further enhanced by the integration of a variable speed drive (VSD) in the EtaLine Pro model, which is produced in Germany and offers users un matched control and energy savings. “Our
