  • Pump speed adjustment

    Does anybody know the name of the device that can adjust the speed of pump? It's almost like a dimmer switch for lights but for, well, for adjusting the rotation of the pump.

      I HIGHLY recommend www.factorymation.com I just purchased a NEMA 4x controller with external switches for like $470. The closest one that Baldor could do was like $900. I installed it the other day and it works like a dream.

        Variable Frequency Drive Controllers aka VFD's.

        http://www.driveswarehouse.com is one online source.

        Also contact Rob Soltys he uses some nice surface mount compact units on his brewhouse panels. I cant seem to find them online.
