The integrated pump specific software and setup parameters, allow the operator to set up specific control values for a wide range of applications. iQpump® will automatically adjust pump operating conditions, as the process variables change while still maintaining optimum pump performance and protection.
Most existing systems, which require constant pressure or flow control, are using bypass lines, pressure release values, throttling valves or impeller trim adjustments. The most efficient method is pump speed control. Pump speed control will reduce energy consumption, while maintaining system optimization.
The iQpump® Controller can be configured for Simplex, Duplex or Triplex pump system applications. One iQpump® Controller can be used as a master, which can also control one or two secondary pump motors. The secondary pump motors can be connected using mechanical motor starters, reduced voltage soft starters, or additional iQpump® drives.
The software is structured in such a way that it only has a few basic pump parameters to be setup to run this application. The iQpump® controller from Yaskawa is available from 5 to 500 horsepower. In addition to Irrigation Pumps in Commercial and Residential applications, the iQpump® controller is suitable for a variety of other pumping applications such as Pressure Booster Pumps, Submersible Deep Well Pumps, Storage Tank Level Control and Metering Pumps.
