Service Wire Continues to Improve Products Service Wire Co. has improved the insulation offered on their MCM sized Heavy Duty Flat Black Pump Cables by using RHW-2/USE-2 rather than THW conductors. This change enhances the physical and electrical abilities of the cable. After analyzing cable installations in submersed applications of larger horsepower motors, cable designs of 1/0 through 500 MCM have been changed to all black conductors for enhanced meg values. These changes enhance the performance of Service Wire's pump cables in rigorous applications www.servicewire.com Nidec's New Sinewave Motors Designed with Increased Efficiency For severe pump- ing applications that don't require a variable speed motor to main- tain constant water pressure or flow, Nidec Motor Corp. now offers new U.S. Mo- tors brand Sinewave Optimized premium efficiency totally enclosed fan-cooled vertical hollow shaft motors. The motors include all the reliabil- ity and trusted design from Nidec's current standard efficiency totally enclosed fan-cooled stock line, but with increased efficiency. These higher efficiency motors meet DOE efficiency regulations as well as include space heaters and all other features standard on Nidec's stock vertical motors. Nidec has stock ratings available from 5 to 125 hp with more ratings to come. www.nidec.com Geophysics' Surveying Tool Measures Depth and Thickness Prior to Drilling Geophysics International offers a revolutionary geophysical surveying tool. The Petro-Sonde is a proprietary device that can give the equivalent to a downhole electric log done from the surface prior to drilling. Useful in determining the depth and thickness of the zone along with find- ing where lithology breaks occur, the Petro-Sonde is an effective tool on the market. www.geophysicsinternational.com Twitter @WaterWellJournl WWJ March 2017 67 Featured PRODUCTS Wilo USA Unveils New Booster Products Wilo USA, a pro- vider of pumps and pump solutions for building services, water management, and groundwater, launched its new booster offerings.
