CVSD01: Variable Speed Drive for Pumps Up to 3HP 3Ø

Product Overview

As a retailer of hot tub and pool equipment, I’m excited to introduce the CVSD01 Variable Speed Drive. This innovative device is designed to optimize the performance of pumps up to 3 horsepower, offering significant energy savings and improved efficiency for your pool or spa system.

Key Features

IP66 Rated Protection

The CVSD01 boasts an IP66 rating, ensuring excellent protection against dust and powerful water jets. This robust design makes it ideal for installation in various environmental conditions, including outdoor pool equipment areas.

BMS Compatibility

One of the standout features of the CVSD01 is its ability to be linked to Building Management Systems (BMS). This integration allows for seamless control and monitoring of your pump system within your broader facility management setup.

User-Friendly Keypad Controls

The device features intuitive keypad controls, making it easy for operators to adjust settings, monitor performance, and access important information directly from the unit.

High Temperature Tolerance

With the ability to operate in conditions up to 50°C, the CVSD01 is built to withstand the heat often associated with pump rooms and outdoor installations.

Simple Installation and Programming

Designed with user convenience in mind, the CVSD01 is easy to install and program. This feature reduces installation time and costs, allowing for a quicker return on investment.

Rapid Return on Investment

One of the most compelling aspects of the CVSD01 is its potential for a quick payback period. Under optimal conditions, you could see a return on your investment in less than 6 months, making it an economically sound choice for pool and spa operators.

Cost Savings Example

To illustrate the potential savings, let’s consider a scenario with a 5.5HP (4.1kW) 3 phase pump:

• Operating time: 24 hours / 7 days a week / 52 weeks per year
• Cost of unit: £614.00
• Cost of installation: £350.00
• Total cost: £964.00

Assuming electricity costs of 11p per kWh and running the unit at 80% of the speed for 95% of the time (with 100% speed for 5% of the time for backwash operations), the estimated cost saving is £98.00 per month. This results in a remarkable 10-month payback period on the initial installation.

Applications

The CVSD01 Variable Speed Drive is suitable for a wide range of applications:

• Residential pool and spa pumps
• Commercial pool facilities
• Water features and fountains
• Irrigation systems
• Any application using pumps up to 3HP 3Ø

Installation Tips

To ensure optimal performance of your CVSD01:
