FST-650L Intelligent Irrigation System: Precise Constant Pressure Control with 35%-42% Energy Savings, Empowering Smart
A 500-acre agricultural demonstration park (greenhouses and open-field crops) faced a critical inefficiency: pumps running at full speed while actual water demand was only 60%-70% of rated flow, causing oversized pump/undersized load issues, high energy costs, and unstable pipeline pressure.
Key Pain Points:- High Energy Consumption: Motors running continuously at full speed, driving up electricity costs
- Pressure Instability: Dramatic fluctuations with varying demand, affecting sprinkler uniformity
- Water Hammer Impact: Direct motor starting caused severe water hammer, leading to frequent pipeline leaks
- Manual Dependency: Required dedicated personnel for valve adjustment, preventing automation
- Core Control: FST-650L-037G/045P Vector Inverter (37kW/45kW)
- Sensor Network: Pressure transmitters at pipeline endpoints, real-time 0-10V analog signals
- Intelligent Algorithm: Built-in PID closed-loop control for automatic speed adjustment
- Remote Monitoring: RS485 interface integrated with park IoT platform, APP real-time monitoring
| Advantage | Technical Feature | Customer Value |
|---|---|---|
| Vector Control | Advanced SPWM modulation, high low-frequency torque | Sufficient head at reduced speeds for varying elevation zones |
| Constant Pressure | 20Hz-50Hz stepless speed regulation | Pressure stability ±0.02MPa, sprinkler uniformity >92% |
| Smart Sleep/Wake | Auto sleep during low demand, millisecond-level wake-up | Eliminates frequent start/stops, extends equipment life |
| Multi-Protection | Overvoltage, undervoltage, overload, short circuit, dry-run | IP54 rating for harsh outdoor environments |
