Variable Speed Drives

Variable speed drives, also known as inverter drives, control how a pump is used. A variable speed drive ensures it supplies a constant pressure – within the ability of the pump – regardless of the flow demand. As the demands of the system rise and fall, the variable speed drive either speeds up or slows down the pump.

This means the lifetime of the pump is extended, as each pump has a shorter operation time, saving on wear and tear and obviating the need to replace the main wearing parts.

The variable speed drive also saves you energy due to the reduced use of the pump, resulting in less money spent on electricity.

Your choice of variable speed drive is vitally important, whether you are using it for an industrial process, agricultural system or common heating and cooling systems.

Here at Vortex Solutions we will ensure you select the right variable speed drive to optimize your pump usage and save you time, energy and money.
