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.

Ameriflo LATAM Launch

Ameriflo LATAM 2024 Launch

It is with great excitement that Ameriflo announces the launch of Ameriflo LATAM for sales and engineering coverage of Mexico.  This is a huge addition to the Ameriflo global sales program and is a concentrated effort to cover the rest of North America buy placing dedicated Ameriflo people in the country of Mexico.

The Mexican market is very large and its dependence on the United States for product makes Ameriflo a perfect fit for this market.  This group will focus on both UL/FM fire protection as well as, Commercial, Industrial & Municipal business.  Ameriflo currently has 35 product lines spanning one of the largest hydraulic offerings on the planet.  This product offering covers end suction, vertical sump, submersible sewerage, split case, ANSI, formed stainless steel, vertical turbine, mixed flow, axial flow and self-primer.  With flows from 10 GPM to over 200,000 GPM and heads from 20 10 feet to over 2000 feet, rest assured Ameriflo has the pump you need…….

Nearly all of the current North American manufacturers have abandoned the Mexican market opening the door for overseas companies from Asia and the Middle East to attempt to enter this market.  These companies cannot service this market from the other side of the world and quite honestly do not understand the culture and needs that this challenging market demands.  By adding people from the country that know the market inside and out is the only way to properly support this very important market.  We need Ameriflo customers from Mexico to understand, we hear you and understand what you want in a pump manufacturer and are answering those demands with a concentrated Ameriflo focus where you want it, right at home in your backyard!!

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.

Large Refinery Split Case

Not Only Fire Protection

Ameriflo started its global program by first focusing on fire protection.  Over the last several years, Ameriflo has developed and released the most comprehensive UL & FM fire protection offering on the planet.  With complete coverage in the end suction, vertical inline, split case and vertical turbine, our hydraulics are unmatched.  Couple that with the only pump manufacturer offered Diesel engine program and you have a very dangerous product offering that has disrupted the global fire protection market.

The intention form the beginning of the Ameriflo concept was to also offer a complete non fire offering consisting of end suction, split case, ANSI end suction, vertical turbine, mixed flow and axial flow products for the Commercial, Municipal & Industrial markets.  This post focuses on one of these non-fire product offerings.

Shown here are two 14×16-20 HS split case pumps sized for 10,300 GPM and a head of 259 Feet.  These pumps have cast iron casings with 304 stainless steel impellers coupled to two medium voltage, 1760 RPM, 900 HP horizontal T-frame motors.  The customer specified mechanical seal construction and the standard Ameriflo accessory package.  These two units are mounted on the exclusive Ameriflo fabricated base assembly featuring base jackscrews for base leveling.
