As gas stations continue to grow in size and capacity, more and more marketers are opting for variable speeds to meet high fuel throughput requirements while reaping the added benefits that only variable speeds can provide.
Higher flow rate
The MagVFC™ Variable speed controller raises and lowers the STP as needed to provide optimal flow rates at all fueling points. The result is faster and more efficient flow rates than fixed-speed systems at nearly the same cost of ownership.
Small hydraulic hammer
Hydraulic hammers are sudden spikes in pressure caused by flow stops that can be exaggerated in fixed-rate pumping systems. The variable speed system significantly reduces the influence of hydraulic hammer on the acceleration of equipment wear.
Energy efficiency
Since a variable speed system always provides only the power required to achieve the desired flow rate, the system consumes only the energy required. Achieve energy savings during off-peak operating hours and increase traffic during peak hours.
