Water solution: Optimise water pumping

Value proposition
Main drivers
To reduce operating costs
To sustain energy gains through reliable and efficient equipment operation
The return on the investment should not exceed 24 to 36 months.
Value proposition
Up to 30% energy saving
Controlled by a variable speed drive Altivar 61, motor power at 80% of nominal flux represents only 50% of nominal power in contrast with 95% for traditional control.
You can evaluate your cost saving with the software ECO8.
Differentiation factors
The pump control will be done by a variable speed drive Altivar 61 equipped with its water "pump switching" card.
Solution architecture

Main characteristics
With its multi-pump option, the Altivar 61 provides flexibility for the management of several pumps.
The variable speed pump is speed-controlled from the pump switching card and up to 4 additional external pumps can be controlled by DOL starters or preferably under soft starter control.
As an option on demand the Altivar can be combined to a RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) that will guarantee acquisition and transmission of events and alarms.
