Rajkot (Gujarat) based Falcon Group, one of the leading pump manufacturers in India engaged in manufacturing and exporting of energy efficient pumping equipment, has launched a mega campaign in advance pump technology. The use of submersible pumps has increased by leaps and bounds. But even after a long history of six decades, inefficient pumps made with older conventional technology have caused a huge dent in precious resources like electricity, minerals, human energy and overall productivity.

Mr Dhirubhai Suvagia, Chairman & Managing Director, Falcon Group, and a Gold Medallist in hydraulic engineering, has developed for the first time in India a bowl set made with 100% stainless steel 304 grade investment casting - the very same material, which has been used in precision parts of ships/vessels, high end chemical valves, etc., The genuine high grade Stainless Steel metal employed in normal agriculture pump sets by Falcon Pumps has started a complete new era in the Indian submersible pump industry.

The innovated fully stainless steel pumps are very high-energy efficient, long life durable, compact in size and ensuring the maintenance free performance for the years. In addition to that, the company has achieved almost double of the duty point head (50 ft duty point head replacing of 25 ft duty point head earlier) with SS 304 bowls, improving the efficiency by an additional 25%-30% approx. Along with that the total size of the pump set is also reduced by 50%-60% on an average.

According to a recent survey, pumps used in domestic, commercial and industrial applications account for approx 42% to 45% of total electricity consumption of the country. Even if just 20% of this consumption could be saved by installing energy efficient pumps, the end result would save nearly 10,000 to 12,000 MW of electricity. The government has already launched the star ratings programme for appliances and Falcon Pumps already has one of the highest 'Star Rated' energy efficient pumps within its product portfolio.
