For years, the rule was simple: high-flow transfer meant pneumatic pumps. Not anymore. Introducing the new QUANTM i230. A 3-inch electric diaphragm pump built for high-flow applications traditionally served by pneumatic systems. Is your plant still relying on compressed air for high-flow transfers or are you exploring electric alternatives?

“You can significantly reduce your energy use when going from pneumatic to electric… Compressed air systems are terribly inefficient; there's a lot of waste and a lot of leaks.” — Jeff Shaffer, Sales Director, Process Manufacturing at Graco The future of industrial pump technology isn’t about choosing one, it’s about leveraging both. Discover why a hybrid approach is shaping the next generation of fluid-handling systems and what it means for efficiency and reliability. 👉 Read the full article from Power & Motion: https://lnkd.in/gnxSTjeH

The shift from pneumatic to electric fluid handling systems is gaining momentum across industries. Electric pumps offer significant advantages: up to 80% energy savings, reduced maintenance requirements and better process control compared to traditional air-operated systems. This transition isn't just about efficiency – it's about meeting stricter environmental standards while reducing operational costs. Electric systems eliminate compressed air waste and provide more precise, consistent performance. Ready to see what QUANTM can do for your operation?

I’m excited that this innovative product is now available! The QUANTM i230 pump will bring new levels of process optimization and control to high-flow transfer applications, all while using less energy than other typical solutions. Improved performance at a lower operating cost!

As Graco marks 100 years of innovation, the focus is not only on where the company has been, but on what lies ahead for the industries it serves. In a recent column published by Fluid Power Journal, Mackensie Lambert, principal category marketing manager at Graco, reflects on how a century of processing and fluid handling innovation is helping shape the future, and why building on proven engineering principles continues to matter.

What turns a pump into a game-changing solution? For James Riggins, it was the ability to monitor and adjust pump speed directly from the SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system, putting monitoring and speed control at operators' fingertips. "That's top-of-the-line, and that's revolutionary," he said.

Graco’s Quantm electric diaphragm pumps not only are replacing air-operated diaphragm pumps but, rather, also replacing other rotary types of pumping equipment! Here is a swap out of a centrifugal pump that was struggling due to priming issues and run dry conditions. Quantm can effectively pull a prime, run dry without issue and stall under pressure. No need to live with performance or misapplication issues putting the same pump back in place. Quantm is a problem solver. #graco #quantm
