Colfax Fluid Handling introduces new Smart Technology CM-1000 Series

The CM-1000 adjusts the flow rate of seawater pumps based on the temperature of a ship's fresh water and current cooling requirements, thereby saving significant energy.

Designed to help maximise shipboard pumping efficiency, the CM-1000 Series assist in reducing operating costs while maximising uptime. Application of the CM-1000 Series to seawater cooling systems has demonstrated energy cost savings of up to 85% and seawater pump maintenance costs by up to 50%.

“Bridgeview” that sends data from the cooling system and its pumps to a computer making it easy to record and analyse trends in temperature and motor data. New functionality that allows the crew to exclude the standby pump in 3*50 cooling systems from monitoring and control, eliminating the need for the converter and cabling.
