Vacuum Pump
Modulation
Vacuum pump modulation is a patented program that improves the functionality of vacuum sewer systems. Traditional systems turn pumps on and off at set vacuum levels. With modulation, the pump speed is controlled based on system demand, maintaining a tighter vacuum range without running at full speed.
Benefits of Vacuum Pump Modulation:
- Energy Savings: Reduces power usage by up to 35%.
- Noise and Heat Reduction: Running at lower speeds and reducing pumps starts decreases both noise and heat, providing for safer working conditions.
- Improved System Reliability: Consistent vacuum pressure ensures better performance, especially at end-of-line vacuum levels.
- Fast Payback: Energy savings alone can cover the capital cost within 18 months.
- Potential for Energy Grants: Modulation’s efficiency may qualify for energy-saving grants
