Costa Rica Round Two

Costa Rica Training, Again…..

Due to the success of the previous Costa Rica training class from a couple months ago, the request to do another class was a major success.  More and more time invested from SAEG in Costa Rica has allowed the Ameriflo brand to flourish in this Central American nation.  The big standout for the Ameriflo product line is the huge hydraulic coverage coupled with the industry leading and upgraded materials of construction.  With Ductile iron casings and investment cast, 304 stainless steel impellers as standard construction, no other competitor even comes close to the construction offered by Ameriflo.

A complete product offering including gear pumps from aqueous foam, end suction, vertical inline, single and two stage split case and a complete vertical turbine round out the most complete UL & FM fire pump offering on the planet!!

Paraguay Training Class

Paraguay Training

To grow Ameriflo sales in Paraguay, SAEG arranged another training class for nearly 30 engineering consultants in Asuncion, Paraguay.  This country has an open mind when it comes to the latest UL & FM requirements and Ameriflo is playing an important role in educating these consultants on NFPA 20 and UL/FM requirements.

The group was very surprised by the Ameriflo offering.  The big differences in the construction of the Ameriflo standard offering are obvious when comparing to others in the industry.  Ductile iron with investment cast 304 Stainless Steel start the differences and the Ameriflo Diesel engine program is the frosting on the cake.

Costa Rica Consultant Training

After the success of the Panama Consultant Training Class we moved to Costa Rica for an even larger class.  Cost Rica is a central location for SAEG that covers other major countries in Central America not just Costa Rica.  They invited the top engineers from San Jose that specialize in fire protection.  Costa Rica has several dedicated business parks specializing in several industrial sectors including the medical industry.  Ameriflo has already installed products into these areas and continue to grow the brand elsewhere.

These design engineers included an audience of consulting engineers that appreciate the features and benefits of the Ameriflo product line.  This group of highly educated and trained professionals truly understand the SIGNIFICANT differences between the Ameriflo product line and all others.  As the new leader in the fire protection industry, these groups of design engineers now understand the reasons Ameriflo incorporated certain distinctive features and benefits into the standard design and these features and benefits are quickly becoming the new standard for the fire protection industry.

Panama Consultant Training

One of the most interesting parts of introducing Ameriflo into markets around the world is to have an audience of consulting engineers review the features and benefits of the Ameriflo product line.  This group of highly educated and trained professionals truly understand the SIGNIFICANT differences between the Ameriflo product line and all others.  This class of engineers included the top design houses located in Panama and was coordinated with SAEG the Ameriflo distributor for Panama.  As the Ameriflo product line was designed by industry professionals with mechanical engineering degrees, these groups of consultants see the outstanding benefits of the Ameriflo product line and truly understand the Ameriflo approach.

The design and marketing of the Ameriflo product line was always intended to be different.  No “ME TOO” product lines here.  Ameriflo has distinctive and market leading features and benefits that are simply not available from the other guy.  Being different in the marketplace is the only way to be disruptive in this industry and the only way to become the new market leader.  SAEG understands this and wants very much to be part of this Revolution.

NFPA 2023 Post Show

We would like to thank all those that stopped by our booth this year for a phenomenal NFPA 2023.  The booth was packed with hundreds of people getting the latest updates on the growth of Ameriflo.  We were very fortunate to also have Mike Duseberg in our booth wowing visitors with his magic!!  He was a big hit with our guests!!

Ameriflo had perhaps the most diverse booth at the show and for sure had the best spread of product compared to all others.  The end suction, vertical inline, split case, vertical turbine and diesel engines were all on parade and show the absolute breadth of the largest product offering in the Fire Protection industry!!

After the show on Monday night, we had our hospitality event at the top of Mandalay Bay in the Foundation Room.  One of our first hospitality events and it went off without a hitch.  We had drinks and food for a couple hundred of our guests with Mike continuing his magic to entertain the room.

Back To Basics

High Quality Castings

We have spent hours on a variety of Blogs discussing construction, Diesel engines and products being shipped all over the world.  Although Ameriflo has the most diverse and complete hydraulic coverage available in the fire protection industry, we neglect to cover the basics when it comes to standard casing & bowl castings.  It is very well known that Ameriflo standardizes on ductile iron casing material throughout the fire protection product line.  The casting process for ductile iron is slightly more complicated than cast iron but the advantages are worth the effort.  Nearly every other manufacturer in the fire protection industry pours their casing castings out of class 30 cast iron.  This class of cast iron has a tensile strength of 30,000 PSI and is the standard for the pump industry globally.

Ductile iron has an additional step of using what is called an inoculation crucible.  This second crucible has magnesium placed in it and the original heat is poured into this crucible for inoculation.  This process essentially changes the base material into ductile iron.  The grade of ductile iron that Ameriflo uses as a standard material in all casings and bowls is class 65 which has a tensile strength of 65,000 PSI, more than double that of standard class 30 cast iron.  As the tensile strength is increased, so is the case working pressure.  This simple change in base material from cast iron to ductile iron allows Ameriflo to have case working pressures that are nearly doubled of what our competition uses as a standard material.

Ductile iron is used by the competition in applications where the case working pressures needed exceeds class 30 cast iron.  Other manufacturers will offer this as an option with an extended lead-time.  These lead-times vary, can exceed 20 additional weeks and is a killer to a prospective order, especially when the customer needs the pump yesterday.
