This pump site includes:
✅ 22kw variable speed drive
✅ Telemetry controller
✅ Over and under current protection
✅ Remote control and monitoring from EAS Cloud

Here is a sneak peak of a medium scale project that we completed in Mackay for a forward thinking farmer 🧑‍🌾

This project involved installing a 75 & 45kw VSD along with our remote monitoring/control solution, allowing the farmer to operate their pumping infrastructure from their phone

This farmer will see savings in electricity consumption and decreased travel time between pump sites

Call us today to talk about how this solution can save you time and money 💰
