ACS355 Machine Drive for Solar Pumps
Half of the energy generated worldwide is used to run pumps. Compared to diesel pumps, the ABB solar pump drive is environmentally friendly, has a long service life and low maintenance costs. It is off-grid and does not generate any environmental or noise pollution. Typical applications are irrigation systems, water supplies, fish farms and agriculture.
The drive has many solar-specific pump control functions, such as integrated maximum power point tracking and dry-run detection as well as sensorless flow calculation.
Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) ensures that you use the maximum power of your solar panel and that the performance of your pump is maximized throughout the day. The automatic start and stop function when there is sunlight can save money and fuel during daylight hours.
