Hello
I have up to 8 pumps that, depending on demand, I'll run however many I see fit. Pressure is my setpoint and a pid and 8 inverters deal with that nicely.
My remit is to equally share the pumps' work.
My initial thinking was to turn on/off the pumps based on their run time, but I'm thinking number of starts might be a better metric, or even a combination of both.
Maybe even start the one with the lowest number of starts, and the stop is based on run time.
I suppose my success will be determined by all 8 pumps failing on the same day
Is there a preferred methodology?
Thanks, pp
