Engineered Software, Inc. Releases PIPE-FLO Stock 2005

Lacey, Washington – Engineered Software, Inc., the leading provider of software used to design and simulate the operation of fluid piping systems, announced the release of its PIPE-FLO Stock 2005 program. The newly released version contains major upgrades from Stock Version 8.0 which was released in 2003.

“PIPE-FLO Stock 2005 is the ideal solution for anyone who designs, builds, operates or maintains paper stock piping systems,” said Ray Hardee, Vice President of Engineering at Engineered Software, Inc. “Stock 2005 includes vast improvements in features and functionality from previous versions of the program. These improvements allow the user to visualize, calculate, communicate and access information in one easy-to-use program.”

Two of the major functionality improvements are the ability to see when a pump or control valve is operating outside the manufacturers recommended operating range and being notified when a pumps NPSHr (Net Positive Suction Head required) is not being met.

“The ability know when pumps and control valves are operating outside of manufacturers recommended operating ranges will save our customers time and money in both the design and operation of their facilities,” Hardee said.

Engineered Software, Inc. has spent more than 20 years listening to its customers and creating products that exceed expectations. PIPE-FLO Stock 2005 is no exception. “Since releasing the first version of Stock in 1997, we have used customer feedback to continually improve the program. This newest release is the culmination of our developers efforts to provide the industry with a perfect solution to their paper stock piping system needs,” Hardee added.

The PIPE-FLO product line is used by designers and operators to gain a clear picture of their fluid piping systems. The program allows users to visualize their systems in a familiar format, calculate system operations, easily communicate the design with others and access supporting documents in electronic format.
