Variable Speed Drives are predominately called upon to save energy, but for many applications, reducing running costs goes much further than cutting down electricity usage:

• Auto-reverse/de-ragging; reduces the amount of manual intervention
• Auto storm condition; pumps work harder in wet conditions
• Pumps run slower for longer; saving energy consumption
• Flow control; giving smooth flow to works
• Improved Power Factor
• Reduces the number of reactive visits to site and free up engineer time
• Reduces the impact on the National Grid
• Reduces the number of stop/starts and the wear and tear on the pump

ABB is continuously developing its drive technology and the latest ACQ 580 drive, which has been designed specifically for the water industry, now includes Bluetooth technology which means the control panel can be operated from your phone.
