Armstrong Design Envelope Intelligent Fluid Management System
- Applications-Commercial or industrial closed-loop systems, including HVAC chilled-water systems, boiler systems, cooling tower systems, or process water loops.
- Description-The Armstrong Intelligent Fluid Management System (iFMS) integrates superior pump- and control technology into a single pumping solution yielding both compact and carefree installation as well as superior energy performance. iFMS is ideally suited for partial or all variable speed chilled-water plant applications (variable primary flow, variable secondary flow, variable condenser water flow). In combination with Parallel Sensorless control iFMS saves 30% or more in energy over any other parallel pumping configuration available today.
- Configuration-Up to 4 pumps in one unit. Catalogue-based pre-engineered solutions or designed to customer specification. Integrated control system (IPS 4000, IPC 11550) or connecting to chiller plant/BMS control. Optional single point power panel
Description
Benefits & Features
Lowest installed cost
- Factory-designed, built, and tested assembly for fast and easy installation and up to 25% lower installed cost compared to standard practice. (loose components, on-site build)
- Superior energy performance qualifies for considerable cost recovery under utility and government rebate programs.
Lowest operating and environmental cost
- Complete pre-assembled unit – combined with perfect component match-up and tuning – for up to 60% in energy and carbon savings over traditional constant speed and variable frequency operated pumping installations
- Elimination of inertia bases, housekeeping pads, flex connectors and superfluous piping avoids all procurement related environmental impacts. (material, energy, carbon)
- Parallel Sensorless control for an additional 30+% increase in energy efficiency over standard pump-sequencing practice.
- Integrated design packs and ships more economically for less packaging waste compared to loose component shipping and assembly.
Lowest project and operating risk
- Product design, assembly and testing in a controlled ISO 14000 factory environment for trouble-free installation and lifetime performance.
- Single-source responsibility for convenient project and product support.

Armstrong Expansion Tanks
- Applications-Pressure stabilization in water based mechanical systems such as booster installations, boiler systems, and chiller plants
- Description-Armstrong Expansion Tanks are designed to reduce tank sizes by up to 80% over standard designs. Expansion tanks use compressed air to maintain system pressures by accepting and expelling the changing volume of water as it heats and cools. Diaphragm or bladder tank designs isolate the expanded water from the pressure controlling air cushion – which is pre-charged at the factory and can be adjusted in the field to meet final system requirements
