Abstract: The disclosure provides a controller and server combination, which implements a set of software programs to control a booster pump system. In a preferred embodiment, the software derives quadratic models for the pump performance curves, and the system curve. The system monitors the flow rate of the system, the pump performance curve model and the system curve model to adjust the drive frequency and the number of active pumps to meet flow rate demand efficiency.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling a speed of a pumping system includes a controller, a variable frequency drive connected to the controller, a motor connected to the variable frequency drive, a pump connected to the motor, a set of sensors connected to the motor, the pump, and the controller, and an interface connected to the controller. The controller includes a processor and a memory connected to the processor. A motor control process is saved in the memory and executed by the processor that generates a motor control signal to control the speed of the motor and the pump.
