Motors and drives giant ABB will be discussing intelligent pump solutions and the dos and don'ts of specifying energy-efficient electric motors at the Pump Centre Conference, 30 April 2104, in Telford.
The firm makes the pint that choosing between a separate PLC and one built into a VSD (variable-speed drive) can be difficult, so it will start by describing the pros and cons, with supporting material from reference sites.
ABB will also be offering guidance on choosing the right motor for an application.
With so many choices – from induction motors to permanent magnet motors and synchronous reluctance motors – this session should shed useful light on efficiency regulations, EU MEPS, and the differences between IE2, IE3 and IE4 motors.
