FAQs

The cabinet-built design consolidates drive electronics with pump-application logic, reducing wiring and panel footprint. It supports PLC/SCADA integration and fieldbus networks, enabling seamless communication with existing automation architectures. Drive Composer and Hand-Off-Auto interfaces simplify operator training and commissioning, while the optional Bluetooth control panel enables field diagnostics without opening the cabinet.
Key specs include Pn 355 kW, 650 A, 400 V IEC and UL Pld 500 Hp, 623 A, 480 V. Sensorless flow calculation optimizes pump speed to meet demand without external sensors, reducing installation costs. Multipump control enables coordinated sequencing across multiple pumps, while soft-start ramps minimize water hammer and mechanical stress, improving overall system longevity.
Yes. The drive provides multipump control and level control features designed for multi-pump wastewater systems. Its compact cabinet and IP-rated variants support rugged environments, and the energy calculator helps quantify savings from coordinated pumping. This enables reliable start/stop, reduced energy consumption, and improved process stability in complex pump trains.
The unit is CE-compliant and UL-recognized for US installations. IP ratings start at IP21 and are available in IP42 and IP54 variants for harsher environments. These certifications and protections ensure electrical safety, reliability, and regulatory alignment across global projects, while maintaining compatibility with standard maintenance and retrofit programs.
ROI is driven by measurable energy savings from sensorless flow control, rapid commissioning via Drive Composer, and reduced downtime through dry run protection and diagnostic tools. Maintenance is simplified by intuitive interfaces, built-in protection features, and remote diagnostics via Bluetooth options, which minimize on-site service visits and extend pump lifecycle.
