Abstract (en)

A method for controlling an electric motor (2) driving a centrifugal pump (3) having a diameter ratio D1/D2 less than approximately 1/2 and a varying fluid flow-through (Q), the motor (2) being connected to a supply mains (R,S,T) through a power-control device (1). An electrical measuring signal (I) is produced, being proportional to the current drawn by the motor (2) or by the power-control device (1), and based on the known characteristics of the motor (2) and the pump (3), the electrical measuring signal (I) is processed so as to produce a control signal (f), being used as an input signal to the power-control device (1). The electrical measuring signal (I) is processed in such a manner, that the control signal (f) causes the delivery pressure (H) of the pump (3) to be substantially constant over a large variation interval for the fluid flow-through (Q). <IMAGE>
