How much can I expect efficiency to increase when a VFD is added to my pump? Commonly, energy consumption and efficiency are referred to interchangeably with pumps, specifically when a variable frequency drive (VFD) is added to vary the speed of the motor and pump. In actuality, the addition of a VF

Light-emitting diode lamps are more expensive but are brighter and more efficient than incandescent or fluorescent.The Double S Dairy team uses curtain baffles so air flow can be adjusted based on in-barn temperature. At 60 degrees Fahrenheit, all 58 variable-speed fans – each 60 inches – are pr
