Following the battery-electric pump innovations, today we are taking it one step further. Proudly we want to let you know that we have developed a battery-electric pump with a built-in power generator. And with that you run autonomously 24/7 for long periods of time, even when there is no mains power or the battery pack is empty. So how does that work?
With battery electric + DPU, the pump is driven by an energy-efficient electric motor. A built-in frequency controller controls the engine. The pump set is equipped with a mains connection and a battery pack. When the unit is connected to mains power, the energy flows automatically through the battery and is used for driving and charging.
In the absence of mains power, the electric motor runs on energy drawn from the battery pack. When the battery is emptied, a built-in diesel generator automatically switches on to recharge the battery. The generator is a 1-cylinder diesel power unit (DPU) with DriveOnยฎ technology. The pump set is equipped with its own fuel tank for this purpose. The diesel generator always runs at an efficient load, resulting in minimal emissions.
As an additional energy-saving measure, the pump set is equipped with a special level switch. The dimensions and shape are constructed in such a way that the switch fits in a wellpoint dewatering filter. Once the desired groundwater level has been reached, the frequency is reduced to 25Hz. This results in a significant decrease in energy consumption!
In the next part we will unveil a similar pump innovation, but with an alternative fuel to fossilโฆ
Stay tuned for the next pump innovation!
