Variable Speed Drive For Water Pump Applications

Prevent equipment wear and damage with the installation of a variable speed drive for your salt water or fluid pump application!


Our customers have reported a significant savings through lower energy usage & reduced equipment damage, which in turn provides a faster payback on the initial investment of a VFD.

Advantages for Water Pumps

  • A Variable Frequency Drive on a centrifugal saltwater pump will reduce pump cycling
  • Reduce fatigue to discharge line
  • Reduce cavitation and wear
  • Can prevent freezing problems by maintaining a constant fluid flow
  • A drive will also greatly reduce power consumption
