1: What is the most efficient and simple way of controlling heating, cooling and refrigeration systems?
Intelligent pumps equipped with temperature sensors that measure the outlet temperature and signal the pump to regulate its flow accordingly – without the use of valves.

4: Why does a cooling system that uses propylene glycol as coolant demand pumps with oversized motors?
The viscosity and density of propylene glycol is higher than tap water.
4: Why does a cooling system that uses propylene glycol as coolant demand pumps with oversized motors?
The viscosity and density of propylene glycol is lower than tap water.

4: Why does a cooling system that uses propylene glycol as coolant demand pumps with oversized motors?
Propylene glycol has a lower specific heat capacity and therefor requires a higher flow.
