For a configuration to be valid, it must be possible to
stage pumps in increments of 100% of the size of the
master drive’s variable speed pump. The variable speed
pump must control the output between the fixed speed
stages, see
Illustration 2.7
.
100% is defined as the maximum flow produced by the
pump connected to the master drive. The fixed speed
pumps must be multiples of this size.

NOTICE
Invalid configurations, like in

, will still run
but will not stage on all pumps. This feature allows for
limited operation if a pump fails or is interlocked.

2.2.3.2 Mixed Pump Configuration with
Alternation
In this configuration the frequency converter alternates
between two pumps and controls the other as additional
fixed speed pump. The Cascade Controller attempts to
balance the running hours of the pumps.
