Break the Bottleneck and Pump Large Volumes of Fluid with Power and Consistency

Pumps

Pump applications are widely adopted all over the world in a variety of industries, most commonly in irrigation, water supply and wastewater treatment, chemical production, agriculture, manufacturing, food and beverage, and many more.

Pumping large volumes of fluid requires power and consistency to maintain appropriate levels of pressure and flow rate. A pump application that can rapidly adapt to changing circumstances is an invaluable tool for industrial use.

This is best achieved with precise motor control by way of a variable frequency drive, which can adjust motor power and maintain proper torque as the pump experiences changes in pressure.

Variable Frequency Drives

Variable frequency drives (VFDs) provide three key benefits to pump operation:

Start-Up Control

Torque, Acceleration and Speed Control

Equipment Efficiency

VFDs utilize a few features that work together for seamless motor control, providing these benefits all in one go. Ramping up acceleration decreases current draw on motor startup and reduces mechanical wear. Fault conditions are monitored and automatic shutdown occurs when the drive detects abnormal operating conditions.

In each case, the VFD decreases wear and tear on your motors, extends the life your equipment, reduces energy consumption, and simplifies maintenance in case a shutdown occurs so you can get back to business quickly.

With this in mind, it is critical that you choose the right drive for your pump application. Galco makes this easy with Drive In A Box®.
