Using variable speed drives (VSDs) to retrofit pumps with is now a well-established practice, and one that should become even more so with energy costs constantly on the rise. The potential for energy saving as a result of employing variable speed drives is especially related to pump systems that are oversized. Variable speed drives can accurately match pump systems to actual system requirements. However, despite the apparent benefits, retrofitting with variable speed drives is not without potential drawbacks, both in terms of the installed motors to which the variable speed drives are fitted, and the pumping systems themselves.
