Water systems are designed to handle a multitude of process control from the minimum requirements to the worst case conditions, all many times with the same pumping system.
When systems are designed for a wide range of flow and pressure it’s not practical to run pump at maximum flow, and use mechanical means to restrict the systems. A better and more energy efficient means are to use an AC Drive to reduce pump speed thereby improving system operation to meet required demands and longevity of the equipment.
iQpump drives are the benchmark in intelligent pump control. This application shows off Yaskawa’s ability to minimize components and system design time both through experienced staff and flexible design. Please take a few minutes to read this success story.
