 Integrated DE Controls (Sensorless) vs Wall-Mounted Drives
Wall Mounted Drives
Cost of Sensor, Installation, wiring costs can go upto $2,000!
Remote
Sensor
Usually, generic drives are used for wall mounting
Additional power wiring from VFD to motor is required.
Wall Mount
VFD Additional AC line reactors are required on the power line
Wall-mounted drives often do not include RFI filters and must
be provided as an extra
When distance between VFD & Motor is lengthy, long
standing wave can form which increases voltage at motor
terminals causing motor pre-mature failure.
It is often not possible to mount wall drives in the optimum
location and wiring costs and reflected wave voltage are
increased due to longer distances.
Do not have Energy metering capabilities
Requires wall space
RSEC/OM
Integrated Controls
Sensorless Capability requires no special installation or wiring
saving on First Installed Costs
Pump Specific controls & Functions are provided on the Design
Envelope Controls
No Additional power wiring is required as the controls are integrated
with the pumping unit.
Built-In DC line reactors removes requirement of AC line reactors.
In built RFI filters in compliance to low emission and immunity
requirements EN6800-3 to the 1st Environment Class C1
No risk due to long standing wave since controls are mounted on the
motor.
Minimized risk of reflected wave voltage since controls are mounted
on the motor.
Design Envelope pumps incorporate the ability to record and
cumulate pumping unit energy consumption.
Using Design Envelope pumps with integrated controls means
valuable wall real estate is not used. Equipment can be positioned
closer to the mechanical room perimeter because the walls are kept
clear.

 Ease of Maintenance; End-Suction vs Armstrong 4200H
Armstrong VIL pumps reduce seal change time of over 3-4 hours typical to under half an hour.
Conventional End-Suction pumps require piping disconnection, lifting equipment and extra labor.
Armstrong 4200H End Suction pump’s mechanical seal can be accessed without disturbing the piping or the motor.

 Active Performance Management

Active Performance Management is a systems management

approach that optimizes HVAC systems at any stage of a building’s
life-cycle by continually learning from a broad network of
installations and responding to changing HVAC requirements.

The combination of smart commissioning with real-time alerts and

system transparency addresses performance drift and maintains
occupant comfort

 Real-time alarms & notifications.

 Advises changes to system performance
 Predicts failures and potential issues thereby
 Reducing downtime
 Provides Intelligence based maintenance plan.
