Pump controllers and electronic protections

Controllers and electronic protection for pumps - key elements of hydraulic systems

Electronic pump controllers and protections are the foundation of modern hydraulic installations.   Their role is invaluable in ensuring the efficiency and safety of pump systems. At Onninen, we understand the importance of these components perfectly. Our extensive range includes a wide selection of controllers and protections from renowned brands.

Grundfos, Afriso and Wilo are leading manufacturers whose products you will find in our assortment. Each of these companies is famous for innovative solutions and reliability. Grundfos offers advanced controllers for circulation pumps. Afriso specializes in precise safety devices. Wilo, in turn, supplies comprehensive control systems for various types of pumps.

Types of controllers and electronic protection for pumps

In our offer you will find a variety of devices adapted to specific needs:

• Pressure controllers - regulate the pump operation based on the pressure in the installation
• Fill level controllers - control the liquid level in tanks
• Control devices - manage entire pump units
• Surge protection - protects the installation against voltage surges
• Thermal protection - prevents pump motors from overheating

Each of these devices plays a key role in ensuring the proper operation of the pumping system.   Their selection must be precise and adapted to the specific installation. Our experienced specialists will be happy to advise you in choosing the optimal solution.

Criteria for selecting controllers and electronic protection for pumps

Choosing the right driver or protection is a key decision. It affects the performance and durability of the entire system. When choosing devices, there are several important factors to consider:

• Pump type and power
• Specifics of the hydraulic installation
• Control precision requirements
• Working conditions (temperature, humidity)
• Monitoring and remote control needs

At Onninen we help clients analyze these parameters and select optimal solutions.   Our experience allows us to precisely match devices to individual needs. Thanks to this, pump systems operate efficiently and without failure for many years.

We often come across the question about the benefits of using advanced controllers. The answer is simple - it is primarily energy savings and extending the life of pumps. Modern controllers optimize the operation of devices. They adjust their efficiency to current demand. They also prevent unnecessary on-off cycles.

In the case of large industrial installations, the benefits are even more visible. Central control systems allow for full control over the operation of pumps. They enable quick response to failures and process optimization. This translates into significant savings on a plant-wide scale.

Practical applications of electronic pump controllers and protections

Electronic pump controllers and protections are used in various industries and applications.   In residential construction, they are used to control pumps in water supply systems. In the food industry, they control the operation of pumps in production lines. In sewage treatment plants, they manage complex systems of pumps and mixers.

We recently completed a project for a large logistics center. The challenge was to ensure stable water pressure in the extensive hydrant network. We used an advanced control system based on Grundfos controllers. This allowed for precise regulation of pump performance. The effect was to maintain optimal pressure while minimizing energy consumption.

Another interesting case was the modernization of the cooling system in a meat processing plant. The key element turned out to be the tank fill level controllers. They ensured smooth operation of pumps and eliminated the risk of overheating of the installation. This resulted in increased production safety and reduced operating costs.

In our daily practice we see how important a role electronic security plays.   They protect expensive pumps from damage in the event of a failure. Overvoltage protection prevents destruction of the control electronics. Thermal protection switches off the pump if the motor overheats. This is an investment that quickly pays for itself, protecting against costly repairs.

Many customers ask us about the possibilities of remote monitoring and control of pumps. This is an area where technology is developing extremely dynamically. Modern controllers offer advanced communication functions. They allow supervision of pump operation from anywhere. They allow for a quick response in the event of anomalies or failures.

Our experience shows that investing in high-quality controllers and protection always pays off. The initial higher purchase cost pays off in lower energy bills. It also translates into lower maintenance and repair costs. In the long run, these are significant savings for any company.
