Design Aid Package

Orenco's Design Aid Package and CD-ROM is an invaluable tool for designers of onsite wastewater treatment systems. It includes Orenco’s stand-alone PumpSelect™ program that takes the guesswork out of sizing pumps and configuring carrier lines. PumpSelect™ provides fast, error-free hydraulic calculations and generates system curves. The latest Design Aid Package includes 32 completely updated STEP Equipment and Tank Drawings, as well as copies of Orenco's AutoCAD® drawings for intermittent and recirculating sand filters, pumping systems, and related products. To complete the package, we've included a DWG viewer (eDrawings™, from SolidWorks Corporation) and a PDF viewer (Adobe® Reader® from Adobe Systems, Inc.) on the CD-ROM.
