18. BECSys VFD
VFD
BECSys
BECS is focusing activity on the interaction of our Water Chemistry Systems with Variable Frequency Drives/Pumps

19. Water Chemistry – VFD Integration
Benefits of water chemistry/VFD Integration
Piggy-backing
Ease of Use
Water Quality improvement
Ongoing enhancement

20. Integration Benefits: Piggy-Backing
Convenience: We already have functions and features in place familiar to the aquatics industry
Why establish duplicate, parallel, separate systems?
Multiple systems to install, learn, maintain, support, etc.
User Interface
Data Logging
Remote Access / PC Software
Unified Alarm Notification and Setup
How else will you set up remote alarm notification?
And BECS is further innovating and developing
Why not take advantage of these facilities, regardless of the manufacturer of the VFD?

21. Integration Benefits: Ease of Use
Water Chemistry controllers are customized to the aquatics application
User Interface Terminology, Manuals, Wiring Diagrams, etc are all market-specific.
More than piggy-backing: a VFD will be less intimidating if considered part of the water chemistry system
Installation / Startup
The most simple (and cost-effective) VFD will work
Inputs can be brought into the BECSys controller system
Intelligence built into the BECSys controller, so VFD need only run a very basic “slave” program

22. Integration Benefits: Ease of Use
Programming
BECSys controller knows the difference between a circ pump and a feature pump
Will know specific requirements of different feature pumps
Water slide pump programming may differ from Lazy River
Analysis
Water quality readings graphed with pump readings
pH, ORP, temperature… flow rate, TDH
Alarms show together in Event Log
Status Reports include water chemistry and pump info

23. Integration Benefits: Water Quality
Can we modify the pump rate to actively improve water quality?
Filtration System support (BECSys7)
Filter Backwash can adjust pump rate (even stop) to support particular BW requirements
More sophisticated filtration opportunities will benefit from control integration
Advanced control algorithms
May adjust pump rate based upon water quality inputs
Blended flow rate; real-time peak/off-peak flow rate determination, with daily minimum average rate.
Europe already going here; North America may not be quite ready yet, but we will get there

24. Integration Benefits: Ongoing Development
BECS is committed to ongoing development of
General Capabilities - networking, remote access, data analysis, etc.
Specific VFD algorithms
If integrated, advancements will include VFDs
PC software improvements
VFD algorithms – BECSys firmware release
If separate…
VFD reprogramming for new features?
What about remote access?
