GRAND TERRACE, CA – Often, the most challenging part of upgrading a pumping system is determining what the perfect pump for an application is. Griswold™ Pump Co., a manufacturer of centrifugal pumps, has found a way to simplify that selection process with the creation of its Online Pump Selection Program. The program, found at www.griswoldpump.com/html/pumpsel.htm, allows end users to select and evaluate the best pump for their specific needs.

After determining a pump’s operating requirements, they can be entered into the Online Pump Selection program, which uses the parameters to perform a search and create a list of all the Griswold pumps that meet the requirements. This list can be sorted by pump size, NPSHr, efficiency and power consumption to create additional comparison points.

After creating a list of pumps, the program will generate a performance curve that shows pump head, efficiency, horsepower and NPSHr as a function of flow rate. Additional information can also be displayed, such as impeller diameter, speed, shutoff head, maximum horsepower, best efficiency point, minimum flow, motor data and much more.
