7. r turnover Why slower ts better The surprising secret to minimizing pump energy costs is to operate at the lowest speed needed to accomplish a job It takes far less energy to move water slowly than quickly Why Because there s lower resistance in the filter accessories and plumbing system Even with only modest pump speed reductions the effect on electricity usage can be dramatic In fact reducing pump motor speed by 25 actually reduces the power needed by 58 of what s consumed at the higher speed A good analogy is your car you get much better gas mileage at 30 mph than at 90 mph The same is true with pool pumps run slower to reduce energy used Input Power Pump Motor Speed vs Power Consumption 100 80 60 40 20 0 20 40 60 80 100 RPM This graph shows the huge increase in energy consumption as pump speed increases Slow down the pump and you cut energy costs dramatically IntelliFlo vs svrs pump s permanent magnet motor produces far less heat and vibration than traditional induction motors This not only results in less stress and wear on pump components but on other equipment too Exclusive load sensing software provides nearly instant priming which saves energy and reduces wear and tear on the pump Plus built in diagnostics protect the IntelliFlo pump from the most common causes of premature pump fallure overheating freezing and voltage Irregularities The result is you can expect dramatically longer
8. rmanent magnet motors are fundamentally more energy efficient second the IntelliFlo vs svrs pump includes a variable speed capability along with digital controls and proprietary software that allow custom programming of optimum pump speeds for specific tasks filtering heating cleaning spa jets etc Here s just one comparative example Pump Annual Kilowatts Use 24 hr day Run Time 2 HP 19 272 IntelliFlo vs svrs 9 654 2 891 1 448 Annual Electric Cost 15 Kwh Traditional pumps one pre set speed are almost always greater than that needed to meet the health department turnover requirements With a variable speed pump the optimum speed will almost always be lower than the pre set unchangeable speeds of older pumps IntelliFlo vs svrs pumps eight settable changeable speeds ranging from 1100 to 3450 RPMs mean you can program the exact flow requirements for each task assuring the lowest energy use possible adding to your savings Plus with IntelliFlo VS SVRS pump you may be able to further reduce energy costs by reducing flow rates during non pool use hours while maintaining 24 hour a day filtration at a much lower cost Check with your local health department for requirements in your area Savings Difference 1 443 or 50 Actual savings can vary Example reflects savings for an average 30 000 gallon commercial pool operating 24 hours per day at a flow rate sufficient to perform a minimum 6 hou
