  2. HVAC & WATER • HVAC • Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) isallaboutefficiency: • Room temperaturesneed to be maintainedat optimum levels to achieve the best occupant confort. • Itisessential to considerhow hit targets in reducingcosts and carbon dioxide (CO2) levels.

  3. HVAC & WATER • WATER - PUMP • An operatingpumpwillnormallyconsume more powerthan the hydrauliccircuitrequires and itisusuallypositioned in unconfortable site: • Itisessential to considerhowachieve targets in reducingpowerconsumption, costs and CO2levels. • Maintenance time and costsneed to be reduced in order to avoid long plantstandstill.

  4. HVAC & WATER - Why VFD flow control? HVAC & WATER systems are designed to operate under the most extreme conditions and, HVAC typically, in the“worst case” situations that the system will encounter Most of the time they have excess capacity

  5. HVAC & WATER - Why VFD flow control? • Problems of traditional flow control • Lowsystemefficiency • Difficult in regulation • Electromechanical stress • Noise due to mechanicalresonance • High startingcurrent • Big supplycablesection or cablenumber • Maintenancecost and time

  6. HVAC & WATER - Why VFD flow control? Reducing the capacity of the systems when full capacity is not required provides significant energy savings without sacrificing system performance VFD Flow control

  12. HVAC & WATER - VFD flow control Proportional Integral Derivative function (PID) The sum of these three actions is used to adjust the process via a control element such as the position of a control valve or the power supply of a heating element. PID controllers attempts to correct the error between a measured process variable and a desired set-point by calculation and then outputting a corrective action that can adjust the process accordingly.

  13. HVAC & WATER - VFD flow control The target value or Set-point has to be set by user. This could be the desired pressure, flow, temperature, vacuum, etc. E.g.: this reference is the measure of how much fluid is required to be sent to the wastewater pipeline.

  20. WATER - MULTIPUMP application overview Controls a multi-pumppumpingsystem (up to 5 pumps) Onepumpis the speed-controlled master and the otherpumps are variablespeed or fixedspeedslaves Multi-Master mode Connection using I/O or Modbus Automaticbalancing of operating hours of allpump sets Elimination of water hammer

  21. WATER - MULTIPUMP: Fixed Speed Slaves (FSS) The Master pump operates to ensure the system fine-tuning. The slave pumps are started up/stopped based on the criteria below: • Percentage of the working power required for the master pump (allowing optimum performance of the plant). • Maximum allowable adjusting error. • Maximum difference among the working time of each available pump. The power ratio of the connected pumps must meet one of the following requirements: • All pumps must have the same power ratings. • The connected pumps can have different power ratings, provided that each pump with the greatest power rating is matched with lower-rated pumps that, if combined, have power ratings equal to or higher than the former pump. • The power rating of the master pump must be higher than/equal to the power rating of the lower-rated pump.
