Introduction
variable speed drives
Pump Functionality
Flow Limitation
Allows user to limit the flow of the system to a configured value.
Sleep/Wake Up
Manages periods where demand is low and main pumps do not need to remain
running. It saves energy and prevents premature aging. The user can select the
sleep mode activation: on sensor value, on switch or external condition, on speed,
or on power level.
Sleep Boost
When entering in Sleep mode, a boosting phase allows increasing pressure just
before stopping the pump. It prevents from quick restart in case of low demand.
Low Demand
Define periods of the application where water demand is low in order to save
energy.
Jockey Pump Control
During Sleep mode, a Jockey pump can be started to maintain emergency service
pressure or to meet a low demand.
Anti-Jam
Removes clogging substances from the pump impellers with quick forward and
reverse operation. It can be triggered automatically or manually.
Advance Sleep Checking
Used to periodically monitor demand when pump curve is flat and flow switch or
meter isn’t installed
Pipe Cleaning
Used to start the pump periodically to avoid sedimentation in the pump housing.
Centrifugal Pump Start & Stop
Defines speed profile & control the start & stop of the pump.
Multi-Pump Control (Booster) Drive to Drive
Define control of several pumps
Sensor Management
Define how the drive I/O will be used to manage pressure sensor or flow sensor
inputs.
Process Control (PID)
Maintains a process at a given pressure or flow reference in the water network.
Level Control
Used to manage an upper level limit or lower level limit of a liquid in a tank.
Friction Loss Compensation
Helps to maintain constant pressure by monitoring flow in order to compensate
pressure losses over pipes by estimating the pressure drop due to friction.
Application Modes
Define running modes of the application, control inputs and monitoring outputs
related to application.
Priming Pump Control
The priming pump maintains a supply to the inlet of the main pump by running
before the lead pump starts.
Pipe Fill
Used on the start cycle to prevent water hammer and associated mechanical
stresses in pipes when a system is filled in too quickly.
Outlet Pressure Protection
Min Pressure (detection of Pipe Burst, low outlet pressure while pump is loaded)
Max Pressure (prevention of Pipe Burst, detect running outside normal working
area)

Pump Functionality
Application Units
Define units used in applications, including pressure, flow rate, temperature, and
currency.
Centrifugal Pump Characteristics
Define characteristics & configuration of a centrifugal pump
Sensorless Flow Estimation
Provides flow estimation using predefined pump curves HQ (head vs flow) or PQ
(power vs flow) entered by the user. It’s designed to work on single pump systems
without external sensor input.
PID Auto Tuning
Auto tuning of PID parameters.
Pump Cyclic Start Protection/ Pump Cycle Monitoring
Limits the number of restarts in a dedicated time period in order to avoid excess
wear to the pump.

Pump Functionality
Cavitation Pump Protection
Functions used to prevent cavitation which can damage the pump impeller, reduce
flow, create vibration, and increase energy consumption.
Dry Running Pump Protection
Detects pump operation in a dry running condition to avoid severely damaging or
destroying the pump.
No Flow/ Low Flow Pump Protection
Detects pump operation at no flow or low flow to avoid severely damaging or
destroying the pump by overheating
PID Feedback Supervision
Keep pump running point in right running area. Prevention of burst pipe
High Flow Protection
Detection of Pipe Burst. Detect running outside normal working area
Inlet Pressure Protection
Protects the pump against low inlet pressure. When the inlet pressure goes below
the settable pressure, the applied pressure setpoint is decreased by the drive itself
to prevent cavitation. If the pressure setpoint is reduced, the pump speed will also
decrease.
Outlet Pressure Protection
This protection provides outlet “high pressure” and “low pressure” alarms. Used to
prevent pipe system damage or to detect burst pipes.
Low Pressure Pump Protection
Detects pump operation at low pressure in order to avoid pump damage due to
cavitation.
