2: How much energy can you expect to save when installing a VFD with the main pivot?
Minimum 20%
3: When a VFD is installed with a pump, what happens if the valve for one irrigation zone is closed and another is open?
A pressure sensor notifies the VFD to reduce the pressure, and thereby the speed of the pump.
3: When a VFD is installed with a pump, what happens if the valve for one irrigation zone is closed and another is open?
The pressure decreases in the zone that is open.
