Next Generation Controls
Charleroi, PA
Hoffman Lamson's Next Generation Controls and Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) optimize the efficiency of your new or existing Hoffman Lamson blower installations. These control solutions are engineered with the newest technologies, yielding cost effective, flexible, and robust systems that save you money. Next Generation Controls and VFDs offer an annual 20% savings in energy usage when compared to inlet throttling. Other benefits include SCADA ready panels, meterless flow control, pre-engineered design packages that greatly reduce electrical installation costs and automated monitoring.
Horsepower consumption is lower with a VFD than with inlet throttling while both methods are providing the same flow and pressure. Inlet throttling decreases blower output, but it decreases the efficiency as well. By lowering only the unit speed with a VFD, and not throttling, the blower output decreases while the optimal efficiency remains the same as it was at full speed.
