"The client was travelling frequently between Australia and China, so we worked around their schedule to set up meetings and phone calls to better understand their requirements.

"With added research from our end, we were then able to determine alternative design solutions.

"We provided these in a timely manner, and the client was really pleased with our efficiency as well as attention to detail.

"As they worked towards confirming the design that they wanted, we offered them many quotes for different options and combinations to ensure that they had complete design knowledge to make an informed decision."

The client eventually opted to move to a new type of pump and configuration, says Mr Allam, resulting in large cost savings and a reduction in energy required to run the pumps.

"Five, identical Grundfos CRN15-04 Mag Drive pumpsets were chosen by the client, reducing the amount of spares required to maintain the pumps.

"The pumps would then be run at different speeds to achieve the individual duty points depending on the site's requirements at any given time.

"The new Grundfos pumps provided a major cost saving, with all five pumps saving over $56,000 from the original pump configuration cost. Motor power was then also able to be reduced to 4kW motors."

"This was a great success, says Mr Allam, not only for the client, but also for our team at Kelair.

"We strive to find the very best solution for each of our clients, one that achieves their aims while also reducing on costs and energy consumption. It's a delicate balance, however our team has a sound base of knowledge to draw from, and it is this that allows us to think outside the square to get the best results."
