During the rainy season, millions of inhabitants in the metropolis of Mexico City are repeatedly threatened by huge volumes of water. The El Caracol pumping station equipped with 20 extra large KSB submersible motor pumps is helping the 20 million inhabitants of the metropolis to fight stormwater and flooding.

In times of increasingly professionalised cyber attacks, the importance of secure network components is growing exponentially. This is one reason why internet-enabled products are thoroughly scrutinised by customers before they are used. KSB’s cloud-based KSB Guard was examined by the rubber and plastics specialist ContiTech, and passed the validation with flying colours. This achievement almost overshadowed the fact that the main contract involved the refurbishment and modernisation of an entire cooling water system.

Spannenburg is home to the biggest drinking water treatment plant in the Netherlands. KSB pumps supply several millions of litres of drinking water to over 300,000 people every day.
