Market Overview 

Need for Intelligent Metering Pumps Enhances Growth Prospects of the North
American Metering Pumps Market 

With customers increasingly demanding superior quality, reliability, and
accuracy in metering, the North American metering pumps market is all set to
surge. Market participants will be aware that the population growth has created
a resultant need to upgrade and modernize the municipal water and wastewater
treatment plants, opening up significant revenue streams. Moreover, plants are
leaning toward automation in their desire to reduce lead times, unnecessary
wastage, and unplanned downtime as well as ensure the safety of the environment
and their personnel. Metering pump suppliers are looking to make the most of
this automation trend by offering value-added, interoperable Ethernet and BUS
options such as Foundation Field BUS, ProfiBUS, MOD-BUS, and HART. 

However, this shift in customer focus to modern and turnkey solutions is
challenging metering pump suppliers to expand the boundaries of their expertise.
"Providing better instrumentation and controls to improve system efficiency
requires suppliers to extend their application and product knowledge into
products they do not deal with," says the analyst of this research. "This
situation has compelled suppliers to ink strategic partnerships and acquisitions
that will give them the technical skills required to meet customer demand." 

Participants will also have to strategize to deal with the current economic
downturn, as the credit crunch has resulted in the cancellation or deference of
major projects across industries. Equipment suppliers are hard hit by this drop
in demand, but they can take heart from environmental legislation and the need
to save energy, which are sustaining the sales of metering products.
"Regulations and directives focus mainly on improving metering accuracy to
prevent chemical overfeeding," notes the analyst. "This helps to minimize the
introduction of any polluting by-products through chemical reactions."
Carbon-emission reduction through carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is
expected to fuel future market growth, while plant modernization initiatives
will boost the uptake of smart and intelligent pumps that can help save energy.
