June 20, 2025-- ITT Inc. (NYSE: ITT) today announced that business leaders from the company will present VIDAR, a revolutionary compact motor that combines embedded variable speed intelligence with advanced energy efficiency and reliability for industrial pumps and fans, at two landmark events next week.

On June 24, ITT will host the VIDAR Unveiled event in Houston to formally launch VIDAR to customers and partners. The event will be highlighted by presentations from Senior Vice President, Chief Strategy Officer and President, Industrial Process Bartek Makowiecki and Vice President and VIDAR General Manager Dan Kernan. The event will also include interactive experience stations demonstrating VIDAR’s game-changing capabilities.

On June 25 at 9:40 a.m. CT, Kernan will deliver a keynote presentation at Downstream USA 2025 on the topic of “Unlocking Hidden Energy, Reliability and ROI in Every Pump and Fan.” Downstream USA, organized by Reuters Events and held at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, is North America’s leading downstream conference with more than 3,000 petrochemical, chemical and EPC attendees.

VIDAR solves a problem endemic to the global flow industry: wasted energy. Each year, roughly $300 billion is spent globally to move fluids for critical applications. However, approximately 85% of industrial pumps and fans rely on outdated fixed speed motors and mechanical controls, resulting in excess energy usage. VIDAR, an industrial motor with advanced variable frequency technology in a package 60% smaller than current market solutions, ensures that rotating equipment runs at desired flow rates while reducing energy and maintenance costs for operators.

“VIDAR is more than just a motor; it’s a compact powerhouse that replaces traditional motors and variable frequency drives and fits seamlessly into existing footprints. In one field trial, deploying VIDAR on a single pump reduced energy usage by over 50% and saved the customer roughly $20,000. VIDAR is another example of ITT’s differentiation through innovation, with a game changing technology. Both VIDAR Unveiled and Downstream USA 2025 are the next opportunities for customers and partners to experience firsthand how VIDAR reduces energy waste and lowers costs in critical downstream and chemical applications,” said Kernan.
