Pump Controls

Pump Control DiagramVariable speed drives are used for two main reasons:

  1. to improve the efficiency of motor-driven equipment by matching speed to changing load requirements; or
  2. to allow accurate and continuous process control over a wide range of speeds.

Motor-driven centrifugal pumps, fans and blowers offer the most dramatic energy-saving opportunities. Many of these operate for extended periods at reduced load with flow restricted or throttled. In these centrifugal machines, energy consumption is proportional to the cube of the flow rate. Even small reductions in speed and flow can result in significant energy savings. In these applications, significant energy and cost savings can be achieved by reducing the operating speed when the process flow requirements are lower.

In some applications, such as conveyors, machine tools and other production-line equipment, the benefits of accurate speed control are the primary consideration. VFDs can increase productivity, improve product quality and process control, and reduce maintenance and downtime. Decreasing cost and increasing reliability of power semiconductor electronics are reasons that VFDs are increasingly selected over DC motors or other adjustable speed drives for process speed control applications.
