Boiler Feed Pump — 5-Year TCO Calculator
Estimate the total cost of ownership for a motor-driven centrifugal boiler feed pump over 5 years of operation. Factors in VFD energy savings (industry deployment range 20–50 %) and DLC-upgraded mechanical seal service intervals.

VFD + DLC upgrade vs fixed-speed + standard seal
Methodology: Energy cost = motor kW × load factor × annual hours × tariff, adjusted by VFD savings factor. Seal interval references DLC endurance testing (≈ 27,000 h published) and standard-seal industry baseline (12–36 months). Unplanned downtime estimates are conservative engineering assumptions; actual values depend on N+1 redundancy and maintenance contracts.
Estimates are indicative. Capital cost differences between VFD/DLC options and standard configurations are not included — a formal TCO requires full project economics. Contact our application engineering team for a custom analysis using your specific load profile and tariff schedule.
