SAEG Training – Bogota, Colombia

To grow Ameriflo sales in Colombia, SAEG arranged another training class for nearly 20 of their inside and outside sales people and engineers.  Colombia is a country that fully embraces the latest UL & FM requirements and Ameriflo is an active player in this ever expanding market.  The training class covered the huge differences between Ameriflo and the other guys, especially when it comes to the standard construction offering consisting of ductile iron casings with investment cast, 304 stainless steel impellers.  Every other competitor uses class 30 cast iron with sand cast bronze impellers.  This is a significant difference in construction as well as efficiency.  The investment cast impeller is much smoother than sand cast bronze and is one of the main reasons why Ameriflo has the lowest documented horsepower in the UL/FM fire protection market.  Ameriflo has used the latest design software to model all pumps allowing for the highest efficiencies in the fire protection markets as well as utilizing double volute casings on all split case pumps greatly reducing the sizes of rotating assemblies used throughout the product line.
