While the inefficiency of driving a car with the gas pedal to the floor and then controlling your speed using the brake is obvious to any driver, many facilities use that very same approach for pump control. Flow control with throttling or restrictive devices, as is often done, sacrifices energy efficiency and results in unnecessary costs. However, with an understanding of basic principles, an analysis of the specific application, information about available control solutions and evaluation of technologically advanced equipment, these facilities can make a quantum leap in improving the efficiency and economy of their pumping operations.
