Illustration 3.96 Mixed Pump Configuration
3.24.3 Unequal Pump Size Configuration
The unequal pump size configuration supports a limited
mix of fixed speed pumps in different sizes. This configu-
ration provides the largest range of system output with the
smallest number of pumps.
3.24.4 Using Soft Starters for Fixed Speed
Pumps
In a mixed pump configuration, contractors can be
replaced with soft starters.
NOTICE
Mixing soft starters and contactors hinders the control of
output pressure during the staging and destaging
transitions. The use of soft starters delays staging due to
the ramp time of a fixed speed pump.
