Local pump manufacturer Denorco is heavily involved in pump selection and ensures that the right pump for the job is specified.

This can often be a daunting task, but with Denorco’s specially developed ‘select-a-pump’ programme the job is simplified.

The programme was developed by Denorco, and the company put an extensive amount of capital into the development – the programme is now on version 5.90 and is constantly being updated. Denorco product manager Steven Rose tells Mining Weekly this is quite a sophisticated programme for South Africa, and contains an electronic catalogue of all Denorco pumps, including dimensions, performance curves and everything clients need to take into consideration when selecting a pump.

“Type in the actual product you wish to pump (for example water) with its specific gravity, viscosity and flow rate – if you don’t know the system pressure requirement, there is a pipeline module where you can design a pipeline system, and the programme will give you the pressure that your system will require.
