Dedicated to water and wastewater

Danfoss are well known for the quality of their VLT family of drives, as part of the VLT family you can be confident in the quality of the VLT AQUA for your water applications. As the perfect match for AC motor driven applications in modern water and wastewater systems, the AQUA range comes with a variety of pump specific features.

Maximum energy efficiency

A range of features have been packed into these drives to ensure maximum efficiency for water and wastewater applications. The Automatic Energy Optimisation feature can result in 3-8% energy savings, although savings of up to 15% are not unusual. The unique back channel cooling concept also produces energy savings relating to air conditioning.
