Saleri extends Aftermarket range of electric auxiliary water pumps

Saleri, the Italian designer and manufacturer of water pumps, is extending its range of auxiliary electric coolant pumps.

Saleri’s deep commitment to R&D over the years has resulted in many innovative solutions, such as electric pumps for the main engine circuit and for auxiliary applications. This extensive expertise enables the SIL Aftermarket Division to offer a wide selection of electric water pumps, such as 460W and 200W pumps for petrol engines in a variety of BMW models, and a 160W pump for Toyota's Auris, Prius and Yaris hybrids and the plug-in hybrid Prius.

At Automechanika 2018, Saleri will present the aftermarket version of the 50W electric auxiliary water pump that was designed by the company for original equipment. This water pump is based on the integration of a hydraulic system, electric motor and on-board electronic module. Impeller speed and therefore performance of the pump can be controlled via the ECU (Electronic Control Unit) with PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) communication protocol. Cooling responds to demand, especially during cold starts or start & stop phases, allowing optimised thermal management and emissions reduction. The integration of the power source and control inside the pump leads to significant packaging benefits and location flexibility within the engine compartment.

The benefits of the electric water pumps designed by Saleri are:
-Wet rotor structure
-Electronic board cooling responds to needs
-Speed controlled impeller torque limitation
-Full diagnostics and self-protection
-PWM, LIN (Local Interconnect Network) or CAN (Controller Area Network) communication protocols

Marco Pinnacoli, Saleri Aftermarket Sales Director, adds: "Whether vehicles are powered by combustion, hybrid or electric, it’s necessary to pump liquids as a means of transferring heat away from, and between, engine components," he says. "By ensuring we have a well-developed and appropriate range of mechanical, variable, hybrid and electronic products, Saleri is well-equipped to meet tomorrow’s challenges. We are in an excellent position, therefore, to meet our growth targets alongside our partners in both the OE and aftermarkets."
