VFD Pump Drive Guide: How to Control Industrial Pumps with a Variable Frequency Drive
A VFD pump drive controls the speed of an AC pump motor by adjusting output frequency and voltage. In many centrifugal pump systems, reducing motor speed can reduce flow, pressure, and power demand. This makes VFDs useful for water supply, HVAC circulation, booster pumps, cooling water, wastewater, irrigation, and process pumping applications where demand changes during operation.
