FAQs
Yes. The drive supports multipump control and level sensing, enabling coordinated operation across multiple pumps. Its wall-mounted form factor and 230 V supply fit typical municipal and building water networks, simplifying site wiring and control panel integration while reducing the need for external PLC logic for basic pump sequencing.
Key specs include 1.5 kW power, 230 V AC input, and 7.6 A current. It ships in an IP21 enclosure with CE certification, and IP55/flange options are available. Built-in sensorless flow calculation, dry-run protection, fast ramps, and an energy calculator support efficient, reliable pump operation in water and wastewater facilities.
Sensorless flow calculation is designed to optimize pump performance without external sensors, benefiting both single-pump and multipump configurations. In multi-pump setups, it simplifies coordination and reduces wiring complexity, while maintaining precise flow regulation and energy efficiency across varying system demands.
The standard is IP21 enclosure suitable for indoor mounting. IP55 and flange mounting variants are available for harsher environments or space-constrained installations. These options help meet plant-specific corrosion, ingress protection, and mounting requirements, ensuring reliable operation in wastewater and exposed areas.
The drive provides an energy calculator to quantify savings from VFD-controlled pumping, reduces mechanical wear with dry-run protection and soft ramps, and simplifies commissioning through Drive Composer and a Hand-Off-Auto interface. Together, these features can shorten maintenance windows, extend pump life, and deliver measurable operating cost reductions.
