Unplanned downtime doesn’t just hit profits – it damages reputations.
Crest Pumps ensure you never have to worry about this again. With 45x more spent on running costs than purchase price, pumps consume half the energy in an industrial plant. 90% run inefficiently, leading to energy waste, unexpected downtime, H&S risks and production loss.
How much are these inefficiencies costing your business and reputation?
The AVF-X Series is one of the first plastic magnetic drive pumps to meet Europe’s highest pump efficiency standards Commission Regulation (EU) No. 547/2012 with an MEI ≥0.7).
This means you can rely on using one of the most energy-efficient pumps available, saving on energy costs and reducing your carbon footprint.
With a 3D impeller and a re-designed centreline volute casing, the AVF-X Series has been engineered to maximise pump efficiency. These innovations result in a longer service life, reduced energy consumption, and lower running costs. With pumps accounting for half of all energy consumption in industrial plants, the AVF-X Series ensures your plant operates at peak efficiency, reducing both costs and environmental impact.
The centreline discharge is designed to ensure smoother flow and reduced turbulence, which in turn optimises overall pump performance and energy use.
This innovative impeller design increases pump efficiency, surpassing Europe’s highest standards (MEI ≥ 0.7), providing significant energy savings and enhanced reliability over time.
The redesigned coupling between the impeller and magnet is built to withstand higher operating temperatures and torque, ensuring a longer lifespan even under challenging conditions.
A patented circulation channel between the bearing and magnet prevents heat build-up, protecting the pump from damage during dry running, a common risk in high-demand operations.
This feature allows for flexible flange orientation to fit existing pipework while the double O-Ring design increases time between services, reducing maintenance needs and downtime.
The AVF-X range is developed using advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software, ensuring maximum efficiency by optimising every aspect of the pump’s design to meet and exceed Europe’s toughest efficiency standards.
