The selection problem

Your demand changes.
Your selection should account for it.

A machine that fits the design point may struggle at low demand. TheOptimal compares combinations across the duty points that matter to your operation.

01

Compare combinations

Explore different machine sizes, quantities and suppliers against the same requirements.

02

Understand operation

Review flow, pressure, speed and power at each duty point, with operating limits alongside the result.

03

Make a considered choice

Compare energy estimates, costs and spare capacity. Keep the assumptions with your selection.

From duty to decision

See the selection process.

Follow a simple pump example from a changing duty profile to a machine combination and its engineering review.

Built for engineering decisions

A shared view of the options.

Operators

Assess an existing installation or plan a replacement against its operating needs.

Engineers

Compare alternatives and document the assumptions behind a specification.

Suppliers

Bring performance data into the same comparison as the customer’s duty profile.
