Sentrinsic, an Atlanta-based sensing and controls technology company that adds intelligence to industrial equipment, has partnered with IDEX Corporation, a publicly-traded engineering products company, to create an innovative "green" pump that operates with up to 40% less energy than previous models. The pump, which uses Sentrinsic's patented sensor technology, is being announced today at ACHEMA, the largest industrial pump tradeshow in the world.
"The energy efficient pump is the first of its kind in the Air Operated Double Diaphragm (AODD) pump industry," said Sentrinsic CEO, Mike Orndorff. "We've taken a product that's never had any sort of electronics or controls technology on it and re-invented it as a high value, differentiated product. Even in this challenging economic environment, the market appears to be very receptive to this type of technology."
David Beck, Sentrinsic's COO added, "Energy efficiency is a hot topic in the industry right now, and this product offers a very clear return on the customer's investment. The technology pays for itself in a very short period of time. Over the life of the product, customers could save ten to twenty times the cost of their investment in their energy bills."
