Six-Stage Dewatering Pump Control System
If a standard product doesn’t fit your requirements, Benshaw’s design and engineering teams can help tailor a solution that does, no matter how complex or demanding the application.
The Problem:
The controls system at and old naval shipyard was obsolete and in need of updated controls, which included the complete control and protection of the main dewatering pump motors, rated at 1200 HP at 11.5KV. This is a six-stage transition and is a critical process to bring the motors up to speed while the load is accelerated gradually through speed and torque control, and essential for dry dock certification.
