From my friends at Xylem: The Concertor® system delivers increases in overall pump system efficiency via higher pump hydraulic efficiency, higher motor efficiency and pump system efficiency. It adds unparalleled flexibility (one pump fits all), increased reliability( build in pump cleaning functionality keeping pump efficiency on sustained level that will result in reduced power consumption) and self-adjustments ( build in heat control that will reduce the power in order to protect the pump). The Concertor® with integrated electronics and software yields energy savings alone of up to 70% in many sewage lift stations. Due to above statement regarding higher hydraulic and motor efficiency, additionally no need of extra cooling of VFD and most important the patented energy minimizer algorithm that will automatically finding the optimal operational duty point during the day.
Add to this additional functionality, longer equipment life and increased pump system reliability will offer you a lower total cost of ownership.
