Case Study by SmartD - Clean Power VFD

Seamless Pump Station Retrofit with the Clean Power VFD

Faced with the objective of cutting energy, operational, and maintenance costs, the city os Saint Sauveur chose to replace its existing contactor with a Clean Power VFD.

This seamless retrofit delivered immediate, game-changing results:

35% Reduction in Energy Consumption
An astounding 15dBA quieter operation.
Enhanced pump reliability and extended motor lifespan thanks to a pure sine wave output.

The Clean Power VFD’s compact design and easy 4-wire setup made installation effortless, and its built-in Modbus interface ensured seamless integration with the city’s existing control systems. The result? A high-performance, quiet, and reliable pump station that exceeded expectations.

Metal, Minerals and Mining Operations with the Clean Power VFD

To overcome challenges like harmonic distortion, harsh environmental conditions, and continuous 24/7 production demands, Finkl Steel implemented SmartD’s Clean Power VFD.

This solution minimized power quality issues with an active front-end (AFE), ensured smooth motor performance in extreme heat and dust, and eliminated the need for external filters.

The Clean Power VFD’s simple installation, reliable operation during power outages, and remote app setup proved invaluable, reducing costs and downtime.

A 1400-Foot Retrofit Success with the Clean Power VFD

Stratford Clean-Water Pump Case Study – Discover how SmartD’s Clean Power VFD enabled a 1,400-foot long-cable retrofit on a 50 hp submersible pump in Stratford, Ontario, eliminating VFD faults and filters, cutting energy use by over 40%, and achieving reliable, quiet operation with zero infrastructure changes.

Ending Motor Bearing Failures at Energir with Clean Power VFD

Energir CCU was experiencing recurring motor bearing failures caused by excessive vibration and electrical stress from conventional VFDs. After retrofitting SmartD’s Clean Power VFD into the existing installation, vibration acceleration was reduced by 94.8% and spike energy by 87.2%, with no motor or bearing failures reported since installation. The solution eliminated the need for external filters while improving long-term system reliability.
