Pumping Expertises
Variable Frequency Motor Control for More Efficient
Smart Energy Solutions.
Pumping Systems
As pump manufacturers have transitioned toward more energy efficient, variable speed motor control systems, Square D has developed variable frequency drives to meet the industry's specific needs. Our ALTIVAR family of AC drives combines space saving design with simple setup, programming and operation. Plus, they come with a host of unique features to optimize system performance.
 

Pump Starting and Sequencing Controls
The selection of Square D NEMA, IEC and definite purpose contactors and starters can meet just about any starting and sequencing need you may have-while guaranteeing conformance to both domestic and global standards.

Circuit Protection for Pump Motors
Square D has provided overcurrent protection since 1903 and offers the broadest selection in the industry with molded case, miniature and supplementary protection circuit breakers. These breaker lines, whether UL or IEC rated, are available with a complete offering of accessories and operating mechanisms to meet your application requirements.

Assuring Pump Performance Under Pressure
PUMPTROL pressure switches from Square D set the standard for accurate, reliable control of electrically driven water pumps. We offer a complete line of devices suitable for all types of pumps including those with high horsepower and pressure requirements. For submersible, sump and sewage pumps, we offer switches with electrical ratings that provide direct control of motors. By selecting Square D PUMPTROL products, you show the pump system installer and owner your commitment to quality.

Additional Levels of Control
Automatic control of liquid levels in open or closed tanks is easy with the complete range of level sensors, float switches and accessories available from Square D. We also offer you the option of handling small motor loads directly or through AC or DC magnetic starters.

Combination Starters for Pumps
Combination starters for simplex or duplex alternating pump systems are available in multiple industry-standard configurations including fused or non-fusible switch and circuit breaker types. Add our world-class metal fabrication capabilities and you get a broad variety of enclosures for various ambient environments.

Reduced Voltage Starting to Reduce Water Hammer
In addition to our traditional Wye-Delta reduced voltage pump controllers, we offer a new ALTISTART 46 soft starter with special control algorithms to reduce water hammer. The ALTISTART 46 is the first soft start that bases acceleration and deceleration ramping on the motor torque rather than on current or voltage. Compared to traditional soft starts, this improves "torque efficiency" and reduces current requirements and subsequent motor heating.

Pre-Packaged Solutions
Square D can also save you design and installation time with our pre-packaged pump control solutions. These include AC duplex motor control packages for two pump applications where alternating between pumps is desired to reduce wear. We also offer integrated PUMP-Pak solutions built around our ALTIVAR variable speed drives and engineered to meet the needs of industrial water treatment systems. Plus our UL Service Entrance rated WELL-GUARD pump panels are specifically designed for pumping applications and provide space for field installation of auxiliary equipment, a feature required in agricultural installations.

Linking Pump Equipment to Building Automation Systems
Square D has a variety of communication networking solutions to meet your requirements for integrating drives and starter controls to building management and control systems.

Square D is recognized by the commercial and residential installation markets as well as industrial manufacturers as the premier electrical supplier. By using our quality controls on your equipment, you can be assured of ready acceptance from your customers
