Additional equipment and built-in technology move these drives into new applications.
Motors
Motors are the most common source of power used by pumping systems. This technology is heavily regulated. Pumps by themselves are not variable speed, an option that many systems need to operate with peaks and ebbs during the run cycle, such as power generation. The addition of a variable frequency drive (VFD) gives it that capability.
Reduced downtime is an added benefit of sustainable procedures.
Enhanced diagnostics provide critical data for reliable, efficient operations.
Discharges flowing through the bearings put motors at risk.
The Benton/Washington Regional Public Water Authority saved on energy costs and gave dependable service to its customers after replacement.
Revisiting the fundamentals of data examination, time and resolution can solve equipment issues before they happen.
