BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (June 18, 2014) – Pumps & Systems, the leading magazine for pump users worldwide, is proud to announce the “Water Pump System Upgrades” webinar, a presentation made in partnership with Baldor Electric Company, a member of the ABB Group. The live webinar will take place July 24, 2014, at 1 p.m. Eastern. Registration is free at www.pump-zone.com/webinar/water-pump-system-upgrades. In “Water Pump System Upgrades,” Chris Teague, industry account manager for Baldor’s power generation and wastewater division, will discuss high-flow, low-head systems that use synchronous or high pole count induction motors. These systems – such as irrigation, flood control and desalination structures – often must have the ability to control the start sequence as well as vary the flow rate, and many times with backup power. Teague will teach pump users an innovative high horsepower/low speed solution for these kinds of water pump systems. The webinar will:

  • Discuss innovative solutions for existing pump systems
  • Show how to improve efficiency, reliability and performance
  • Educate participants on the use of proven technology
The one-hour event will include a 45-minute presentation followed by a 15-minute live question-and-answer segment.
