| dc.description.abstract | We have undertaken a survey and analysis of potential ASD applications for pumps in U.S. industry. Concentration was on the five industry segments that consume the greatest amount of pumping HP: electric utilities, pipelines, non-residential HVAC, chemicals, and paper. Application data to compute kWh savings was collected. Costs and simple payback for alternative ASDs were uniformly estimated. Cases analyzed turned out to be good candidates for conversion to adjustable speed drive systems. Our paper provides forms and charts to allow quick estimation of adjustable speed drive costs, kilowatt hours savings, and payback for the different pump applications. | en |
