Mitsubishi Electric Automation has introduced the FreeFlow, a pre-engineered and configurable panel system created for pumping applications where advanced pump control and reduced energy consumption are needed. Available, in industry standard horsepower increments of 5 HP through 250 HP, FreeFlow can be configured with NEMA 3R or NEMA 12 enclosure and has several communication and accessory options. FreeFlow uses Mitsubishi Electric’s FR-F800 VFD, recognized for its anti-clogging and energy-reducing capabilities and auto-tuning features. FreeFlow panels also include the GT2500 Series HMI for programming, system data visualization, data logging, troubleshooting and manual storage. FreeFlow also features Mitsubishi Electric’s FX5 PLC to enable advanced pump control beyond the capabilities offered by the VFD such as applications that require redundancy and the necessity to switch over to a back-up pump should the main unit fail.
