Named the runner-up under Product Innovation Category

Grundfos Pumps India Pvt. Ltd. (Grundfos India) one of the leading pump manufacturers in India was named as the runner up of the ‘Award  of Excellence’ under ‘Product Innovation’ category for its globally acclaimed intelligent in-line pump – TPE3. The award was presented at the recently concluded ACREX 2015, South Asia’s largest event on Air Conditioning, Ventilation, Refrigeration and Building Services.

The ACREX Award of Excellence is an acknowledgement given to the companies present in the Air-conditioning industry for their excellent work in categories of Innovation, Green & Sustainable, Energy Efficiency and Indoor Air Quality. These awards are the source of inspiration for the industry to make further advancements in their innovative, clean and sustainable technologies.

The TPE3 is a quantum leap within in-line pumps, combining unrivalled efficiency and a wide range of intelligent functionalities that make it more than a pump. With its variable-frequency drive, permanent magnet motor and improved hydraulics, the TPE3 is the world’s most efficient In-line pump. The motor bears the Grundfos Blueflux® technology label – and will easily meet the strict IE4 efficiency demands, even including the frequency converter.

TPE3 is much more than a pump. Its built-in communication, energy metering and flow limiting functionalities make it a real money-saver in both heating and cooling applications – in most cases making pump throttling valves and external heat energy meters obsolete. This reduces the initial investment and combined with the superior energy efficiency leads to minimization of total life cycle costs. TPE3 is the natural choice for anyone looking to create high-performance building systems – now and in the future.

G Gangaprasad, Head – Commercial Building Services, and B. Srinivasa Rajkumar, Senior Manager – Business Development – Commercial Building Services, Grundfos Pumps India received the award from Yashwant K. Dengle, Principal Consultant, C Ramchandani Consultants at ACREX.

G. Gangaprasad, said, “We are delighted to win this award. TPE3 is indeed a pump that is way ahead of its time. It is one of the very few pumps in the country which meets IE4 and MEI efficiency demands. We thank ISHRAE and the organizers of ACREX 2015 in providing us the right platform to launch TPE3 and to showcase it along with our other best in class pumps to the HVAC industry.”

Grundfos India had earlier won the coveted ACREX Award of Excellence under Innovation category in the year 2011 for its Direct Sensors.
