Hydropneumatic systems are crucial for ensuring adequate water pressure and supply in various facilities. However, technological advancements have introduced innovation that not only optimizes their operation but also offers significant energy savings: variable speed systems with drives. Join us in discovering more about this groundbreaking solution and the control panels that manage it.
What are variable speed systems with drives?
Variable speed systems with drives adjust the speed of hydropneumatic pumps based on water demand. Instead of operating at a constant speed and shutting down when not needed, these systems continuously vary their speed to adapt to the changing needs of the facility. The brain behind this operation is the control panel with drives.
Advantages of using a variable speed system with drives:
- Energy Savings: By adjusting the motor speed to the actual demand, only necessary energy is used. This results in energy savings of up to 50% compared to conventional systems. Thanks to energy savings, the cost of the panel pays for itself within a period of 8 months to 2 years, depending on the system and operating conditions.
- Extended Pump Lifespan: By avoiding constant starts and stops, equipment wear is reduced, prolonging its lifespan.
- Constant Pressure: Speed variability ensures that water pressure remains constant within a range, preventing fluctuations that can be detrimental to installations and providing a more comfortable experience for the end-user.
- Soft Starts: Startup current spikes are eliminated, reducing impacts on the power grid, especially when these current spikes are substantial. This not only protects the electrical grid but also prevents premature equipment wear.
- Reduced Mechanical Wear: Soft starts and adaptive operation decrease wear on mechanical components.
- Elimination of Water Hammer: One of the main advantages of variable speed systems is significantly reducing the risk of water hammer, a phenomenon that can cause damage to pipes and other system components.
- Use of Smaller Hydropneumatic Tanks: By regulating water pressure more efficiently, a smaller hydropneumatic tank can be used (up to 20% of the size required by a system without a variable speed drive), resulting in space and cost savings.
- Noise Reduction: Operating at lower speeds during periods of low demand reduces the noise level generated by pumps.
