Smarter pump management through collaboration - Tsurumi Connect

Tsurumi Connect has been rolled out at Shell gas stations in the Netherlands. The results at the first stations are promising, with several blockages being detected and resolved early by Tsurumi Connect.

Smarter pump management through collaboration: Distrimex Pumps & Service and Van der Velden introduce Tsurumi Connect. Reliability and efficiency are key for anyone responsible for pump installations. After all, a malfunction can immediately lead to high costs and disruption on site. Distrimex Pumps & Service and Van der Velden have joined forces to tackle this problem structurally. Their joint solution: Tsurumi Connect, a smart plug-and-play control panel that takes pump management to the next level. Challenge: maintaining control over hundreds of installations. Distrimex Pumps & Service has been a leading partner in pumps and pump installations for decades, operating throughout the Netherlands and Belgium. Distrimex Pumps & Service provides you with expert pump advice, top brands in every pump principle, professional installation, regular maintenance, a wide range of parts, and an alert 24-hour breakdown service. Distrimex has been working with Tsurumi for over 45 years. This has resulted in a great solution in which the Tsurumi Connect, in collaboration with Distrimex, has been extended to a plug-and-play solution that can be quickly and easily installed in the field. For Van der Velden, a family business in Brabant with over 550 employees, managing hundreds of pumping stations and sewage pumping stations is a daily reality. The company offers a wide range of services – from unblocking and relining to maintaining grease separators and pumping systems. Malfunctions pose a serious challenge. Especially at sensitive locations, such as gas stations, any outage can cause significant disruption. "We were looking for a solution that detects malfunctions early and, ideally, even prevents them," says Menno van den Bosch, commercial manager at Van der Velden. "Together with Distrimex Pumps & Service, we found that in the Tsurumi Connect."
