A key new product was introduced by leading pump manufacturer Wilo, the Helix Excel was unveiled on the company's Ecobuild stand for the first time in the UK.
Another Wilo contribution to building energy efficiency, it’s a new series of high-pressure multistage centrifugal pumps. Its fields of application include water supply, pressure boosting, industrial circulation systems, process water, cooling water circuits, washing systems and irrigation systems.
The Wilo-Helix Excel already more than meets the legal requirements that will not come into effect until 2017 and already beats the IE4 limit values which are only available as a draft. It offers secure planning for the years ahead with Wilo pumps – reducing costs and emissions. It also offers up to 70% less maintenance expense with easy and convenient access to the gasket without uninstalling the motor.
High efficiency is the new standard – and legislation from Europe in the form of the ErP Directive and the proposed new European Commission EN Standard will continue to see something of a revolution in pumps and pumping system design and specification.
Amongst the wide range of other exhibits on the stand were the Wilo-Yonos PICO, the Wilo-Stratos GIGA and the Wilo Assistant.
