23 wrz 2024 · When using a VSD with a deep-well pump (vertical turbine or submersible) in a sandy well over 200 feet in depth, maintaining a minimum vertical (i.e., uphole) velocity of 2.5 FPS is necessary to prevent the settling of sand into the upper pump stages.
Variable frequency drives are widely used on pumps and machine tool drives, compressors and in ventilations systems for large buildings. Variable frequency drive motors on fans save energy by allowing the volume of air moved to match the system demand.
Whether surface water or groundwater is used for water production, Danfoss AC drives (or VFD pumps) can help optimize the process and reduce energy and maintenance costs. A typical application is the control of deep well pumps, where the integrated advanced minimum speed monitor secures sufficient lubrication to protect the pump.
15 sie 2024 · VFDs can not only be used to reduce a pump and motor’s speed, but in many cases can also drive it beyond its rated speed (i.e., overspeed) by increasing the VFD output frequency above the typical U.S. power frequency of 60 Hertz (60 Hz).
28 lis 2011 · While modern VFD’s provide a much higher level of monitoring and protection for your system, drives cannot make up for a poorly selected motor and pump combination. Solid system design and an up-front investment is money well spent when installing a pressure controlled water system.
22 lut 2024 · Also called adjustable frequency drives (AFD), variable speed drives (VSD), AC drives, and inverters, VFDs are best applied in friction head-dominated pumping systems that undergo frequent load swings.
28 cze 2017 · When considering the relationship of variable frequency drives (VFDs) with well water applications and the efficiencies they bring, a measure of success depends on the working definition of the word “efficiency.”
