Nowadays, the engineers dealing with the pumping systems try to promote the rational use of energy and environmental conservation by mean of good operational practices in the different types of equipment involved.This position is commonly occupied by professionals in electrical, mechanical, electromechanical engineering and other related specialties who do not have in-depth knowledge of pumping systems, and in additions have the objective of complying with the energy budget or implementing saving measures.It is the duty of the energy manager to adhere to the amount of energy stipulated or projected in the production index of the companies, to have this indicator in excellent condition to contribute both the company's economy and the global warming reduce.Therefore, this paper focuses on the use of a pumping systems software that allows engineers and professionals from other branches to acquire the necessary knowledge to evaluate the pumping systems that are in operation in the industry or make new designs based on the energy efficiency approach to meet operational conditions such as the flow rate and the static head required.The informatics application allowed to encourage engineers in the industrial sector to appropriate knowledge of energy consumption behavior with the variables involved in the transport of fluids such as temperature, type of fluid to be transferred, quality of piping, handling of accessories, pump curves, among others.Finally, the software can be used to avoid the operation of pumps far from the point of operation of the current system and to analyze the investment costs, taking into account the periods of activity and installation of the array.
