PRODUCT INFO:

The clever pool pump inverter is a highly efficient and advance variable speed pump controller saving you energy consumptions up to 80% in some cases. Compatible with 95% of single speed pumps up to 1.5HP and with its really easy installation the pump inverter is really catching on across the pool market. Very User friendly with a four pre-programmed speed and time setting for all swimming pool application

Clever Pool Pump Inverter for swimming pool pumps - With energy prices continually on the rise clever pool pump inverter have designed one of the most advanced, efficient and user friendly variable speed controllers that can be used with single speed pool pumps (up to 1.1kW/1.5HP). Pool owners can expect to save up to £743.00 per year by installing this compact, plug in device.

By using advanced motor control technology, clever pool pump inverter allows the user to set reduced speeds on their pump, which can mean a significant reduction in energy consumption.

The Clever Pool pump Inverter can be set to over 30 different speeds to suit a variety of tasks,  unlike any other product of its kind, it has an advanced, user friendly control panel, which allows the user to set up to four time periods in 24 hours, all with different energy saving levels. By plugging the single speed pool pump into pump inverter, the single speed pump becomes a highly efficient and flexible variable speed pump that can be customised to suit the user’s needs.

Clever Pool Pump Inverter therefore provides one of the highest returns on investment in the industry today. This includes low flow for long and steady filtration, slightly higher flow to run certain types of cleaning and heating products and high flow to do filter back washing.

How does it work?

The Clever Pool Pump Inverter works by allowing your single speed pool pump run at lower flow rates, increasing efficiency and reducing energy consumption by up to 80%.

Single speed pool pumps tend to run at higher capacities than required and therefore are inefficient and expensive.

Clever Pool Pump Inverter has an in built timer that allows you to set up to 4 time periods for your pool pump to run throughout a 24 hour period. It also allows you to choose from 30 different speeds giving you more control than any other product of this kind.

Inverter Variable Speed Drive For Commercial Pool Pumps below 15HP is a solution designed to greatly reduce the running costs of commercial pool circulation pumps and improve the efficiency of swimming pool filtration.

Swimming pool pumps invariably run at higher flow rates than necessary, to allow for the power needed when backwashing. Inverter Variable Speed Drive For Commercial Pool Pumps Up To 15HP Inverter technology enables you to control pump flow-rates during the filtration period, which is over 95% of the time.

Swimming pool pump energy conservation is evolving, it’s now possible to reduce the running costs of your commercial pool pump by as much as 33% simply by reducing your pump speed to 80% for 95% of the time and the running it at 100% power while backwashing for the remaining 5% of the time.

This Inverter Variable Speed Drive is Suitable For The Following Pumps:

BP Range, BPH Range, Calpeda, Modern, Hurricane, Giant, Great Giant, Hydrostar, Columbia, Aral, Maxim, Shark, Speck, Hayward, Waterco, Starite and DAB

Call us on 01322 554 870 for us to assist choosing the correct model.

How does it work?

Example of cost saving Pump size 15HP (11.2kW) 3 phase pump.

Operating time 24 hours / 7 days a week / 52 weeks- £33,237 per year running costs

Cost of unit £2025.00

Suggested Cost of installation £350.00

Total cost £2,375.00

Based on electricity at 34p per kWh

The cost of running the pump at 80% of the speed for 95% of time and 100% of speed for 5% (backwash) is £27,299 Per Annum.

Cost saving of £8907 Per Annum is £742 per month saving and just over 3 months for return on investment and payback on purchase & installation cost.

Understanding Pump Affinity Laws

Understanding pump affinity laws will allow you to explain, demonstrate and calculate how a change in motor speed impacts;

• flow rates against resistance

• power consumption

• operating costs

1. The change in flow is proportionate (equal) to the change in speed. If we halve the speed we halve the flow

2. The change in pressure is equal to the speed change factor squared. Operating pressure will be 1/4 of the original pressure

3. The change in power consumption is equal to the speed change factor cubed. Power consumption will be 1/8 the original consumption

As an example, if we take a pump with the following characteristics:

• Motor speed: 2850 rpm

• Flow rate: 302 lpm

• Pressure: 8 metres head

• Power input: 983 Watts

We set the low speed at 1900 rpm – a reduction factor of 0.67 - 1900 ÷ 2850 = 0.67 Applying the factor 0.67 to all pump affinity laws we can determine the pumps operating characteristics at the new speed on 1900 rpm.

1. The change in flow is proportionate (equal) to the change in speed. 302 x 0.67 = 202 lpm

2. The change in pressure is equal to the speed change factor squared. 8 x 0.67 x 0.67 = 3.6 metres head

3. The change in power consumption is equal to the speed change factor cubed. 983 x 0.67 x 0.67 x 0.67 = 295 watts

Therefore, the pump has these new low speed operating characteristics:

• Motor speed: 1900 rpm

• Flow rate: 202 lpm

• Pressure: 3.6 metres head

• Power input: 295 watts

Certikin Pool Pump Inverter will help you to control your pool pump's speed, reducing rpm when required. This inverter is easy to install and simply connects to your wall mounted pool pump. Its manual control allows you to vary the speed of your pump when you do not need full power and revert to full speed when you need to i.e. when you are backwashing or require higher flow. The inverter should be used with a good quality pump such as a Certikin brand, Sta Rite, Waterco etc.

 A 30%  reduction from 2850rpm to 1995 rpm can result in energy saving of 70%. The money you save through using less energy far out-ways the initial cost of this inverter, meaning that this product is an essential item for pool owners who wish to save money.

Certikin Inverter is designed to be used on pumps 1hp to 2hp

Benefits of using a pump inverter:  

- Energy savings (70%-80%)
- Reduces noise
