Vertical Turbine VFD Setup: Preventing Overheating

INTRODUCTION In municipal water distribution and wastewater treatment, the vertical turbine pump (VTP) is a workhorse, valued for its efficiency and small footprint. However, when paired with Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) without rigorous thermal and mechanical analysis, these systems frequently suffer from premature failure. A surprising industry statistic suggests that up to 30% of vertical […]
