EVN Wasser GmbH, the largest water supplier in Lower Austria, implemented a groundbreaking infrastructure project between 2020 and 2025: the new construction of the drinking water Waldviertel pipeline. This 60-kilometre-long main supply pipeline from the Grunddorf/Donaudorf fountain field to Zwettl secures the future supply of high-quality drinking water to around 120,000 inhabitants – an investment in quality of life and future security for an entire region.

The heart of the heating system features a set of “In-line” centrifugal pumps complete with Hydrovar® frequency converter model FCSH4 150-250/150 – FCS4H 125-200/55; these distribute water to 8 heating subsystems specific to the various buildings in the complex. Each subsystem features a series of multi-speed circulators which independently satisfy the demand of each single building.

Ahmed Ramadhan Juma (ARJ) is supplying 6 water transfer sets (11KW-200KW) and 7 water booster sets (4KW-37KW) utilising vertical and horizontal multistage pumps. The water booster sets are fitted with “Hydrovar”, a bespoke variable speed drive (VSD) designed for pumping applications.

There is one thing that Xylem shares with the greatest engineering innovators, and that is continuous investment into new product development. This can been seen at the spectacular development of the Burj Khalifa in Dubai – the world’s tallest manmade structure.

The culturing of mussels and oysters for the company takes place in the Oosterschelde, an almost 100,000 acre (37,000 hectare) tidal wetland that is part of the North Sea. The Oosterschelde is the largest national park in the Netherlands and an important fishing ground for mussels, oysters, flatfish and crabs.
