21 Apr 2026 CW Team

Kirloskar Brothers (KBL) has launched two new solutions at PLUMBEX India 2026 — the Submersible Wastewater Pump, iNSx, and the IoT-based remote monitoring system, KirloSmart Nano.

The iNSx is a precision-engineered drainage pump designed for demanding wastewater applications across municipal, industrial, commercial and residential sectors. It can handle sewage water, stormwater, sludge, effluents, greywater and process water, while also supporting dewatering at construction sites and in flood-prone areas. Its advanced hydraulic design, reduced submergence requirement, IE3 motor, thermistor-based thermal protection and moisture sensor help improve performance, reduce downtime and lower lifecycle costs.

KirloSmart Nano expands KBL’s digital fluid-management portfolio by enabling real-time monitoring through a web-based portal and cloud analytics platform. The compact solution measures and transmits field parameters to support remote monitoring, predictive diagnostics and proactive maintenance alerts across pumping systems such as HYPN, HVAC and firefighting.

With these launches, KBL has strengthened its integrated water infrastructure offering by combining engineering capability with digital intelligence for reliable and efficient fluid-management solutions.
