1.1 PUMPS
Pumps are hydraulic operating machines that transfer energy to the fluid for the purpose of transporting it from
one point to another. They receive energy from a motor source and transfer part of it to the fluid in the form of
pressure energy, kinetic energy, or both, i.e., increase the fluid’s pressure or speed, or both quantities.
■ Electric motors,
■ Internal combustion motors,
■ Turbines.
The operating based on the principle of transferring kinetic energy to the fluid to be pumped; this kinetic energy
is transformed into potential energy (pressure). The rotational movement of a rotor inserted into a casing is the
functional part responsible for this transformation.
Depending on the types and shapes of rotors, centrifugal pumps can be classified as follows:
■ Radial or pure, when the direction of the pumped fluid is perpendicular to the rotating axle;
■ Mixed flow or semi-axial, when the direction of the pumped fluid is inclined in relation to the rotating axle;
■ Axial flow, when the direction of the pumped fluid is parallel in relation to the rotating axle.
The operating principle of this type of pump is based on the direct transfer of mechanical work (of a motor shaft
rotation against a load torque) into potential energy (pressure energy). This transfer is obtained by the
movement of a mechanical apparatus of the pump (piston, diaphragm, gears, screws, etc.), which forces the
fluid to execute the same movement.
The liquid cyclical fills and then is ejected from a given volume of space inside the pump, a process which is
responsible for the name “Volumetric Pump”.
Variations of these mechanical apparatuses permit the classification of volumetric or positive displacement
pumps:
■ Piston or alternative pumps, when the apparatus which produces the movement of the fluid is a piston
which moves in alternating directions and expels the pumped fluid,
■ Rotary pumps, when the apparatus which produces the movement of the fluid is driven by rotational
movement, like a screw, gear, flakes, lobes, etc.

(P1020=6, 7 or 8) according to the table 3.3.
NOTE!
These parameters are displayed according to the selection of the engineering unit 1 parameters
(P0510 and P0511).
Description:

The PID controller can control the motor (pump) speed driven by CFW-11 inverter through the comparison of the
control process variable (feedback) with the control setpoint required by the user.
The PID controller will be set up to operate from 0.0 to 100.0 %, where 0.0 % equates to minimum speed
programmed in P0133 and 100.0 % equates to maximum speed programmed in P0134.
The control process variable is read via an analog input, which requires the chosen input to be appropriately
configured for the purpose.
The "Academic" structure has been adopted as algorithm for the PID controller. It obeys the following equation:
u(k ) i(k 1) Kp [(1 Ki Ts (Kd Ts)) e(k ) (Kd Ts) e(k 1)]
Where,
u(k) = PID controller output
i(k-1) = integral part in the previous sampling instant
Kp = proportional gain
Ki = integral gain
Kd = derivative gain
Ts = cyclic sampling time (fixed at 50ms)
e(k) = error in the present sampling instant (setpoint – process variable (direct), or process variable –
setpoint (reverse))
e(k-1) = error in the previous sampling instant
Description:
This parameter defines the PID controller setpoint value when it is operating in manual mode. When the PID
controller operates in manual mode, the speed value set in parameter P1018 (setpoint in manual mode) is
transferred directly to the PID controller output, thus defining the speed reference of the pump driven by the CFW-
11 inverter.
Description:
This parameter defines the control action of the PID controller for the Pump Genius when it is enabled. I.e. it defines
how will be the error signal.
P1028 Description
0 It defines that the PID controller will be disabled. I.e., will not have control of the process variable.
It defines that the control or regulation action of the PID controller will be in direct mode. I.e., the error is the control setpoint
1
value (P1011) minus the control process variable value (P1016).
It defines that the control or regulation action of the PID controller will be in reverse mode. I.e., the error is the control
2
process variable value (P1016) minus the control setpoint value (P1011).
NOTE!
The PID control action should be set to direct mode, when, in order to increase the control process
variable value, it is necessary to increase the PID output. Ex: Pump driven by the inverter is filling a
reservoir. Raising the reservoir level (control process variable), requires a higher flow rate, which is
achieved by increasing the motor speed.
The PID control action should be selected to reverse mode, when, in order to increase the control
process variable value, it is necessary to reduce the PID output. Ex: Pump driven by the inverter is
removing fluid from a reservoir. In order to increase the fluid level in the reservoir (control process
variable), it is necessary to reduce the pump speed by reducing the motor speed.
Description:
This parameter defines the operation mode of the PID controller for the Pump Genius.
P1029 Description
It defines that the PID controller will operate in manual mode. I.e., the process variable will not be controlled as the control
0 setpoint required by the user and the PID controller output value will be the setpoint value in manual mode set in parameter
P1018.
It defines that the PID controller will operate in automatic mode. I.e., the process variable will be controlled as the control
1
setpoint required by the user and the output value of the PID controller will behave as the setting defined by de user.
It defines that the PID controller can operate in manual or automatic mode according to the state of digital input DI3. I.e., if
2 the digital input is in logic level "0", the PID controller will operate in manual mode; if the digital input is in logic level "1" the
PID controller will operate in automatic mode. This mode disables the External Sensor on DI3 option.
NOTE!
The change from one operation mode to another with the Pump Genius in operation can cause
disturbances in the pumping control. This can be optimized as the automatic adjustment of the PID
controller setpoint defined in P1030 parameter together with the bumpless transfer characteristic
from manual to automatic mode of the SoftPLC PID block.
Description:
This parameter defines if the setpoint of the PID controller in automatic mode (P1011) and / or manual mode
(P1018) will be changed or adjusted automatically in change of operation mode of the PID controller.
NOTE!
The adjustment of the control setpoint in automatic mode is only valid when the control setpoint
source is set to HMI or communication networks (P1020 = 5). For other control setpoint sources,
the automatic adjust of the control setpoint is not executed.
P1030 Description
It defines that in the transition of the PID controller operation mode from manual too automatic, the control setpoint value
(P1011) is not loaded with the current value of the control process variable (P1016); and that in the transition of the PID
0
controller operation mode from automatic to manual, the PID controller setpoint value in manual mode (P1018) is not
loaded with the current value of the pump motor speed (P0002).

controller operation mode from automatic to manual, the PID controller setpoint value in manual mode (P1018) will be
loaded with the current value of the pump motor speed (P0002).
It defines that in the transition of the PID controller operation mode from manual too automatic, the control setpoint value
(P1011) will be loaded with the current value of the control process variable (P1016); and that in the transition of the PID
3
controller operation mode from automatic to manual, the PID controller setpoint value in manual mode (P1018) will be
loaded with the current value of the pump motor speed (P0002).
Description:
This parameter defines the time in which the PID controller is automatically set back into Automatic mode after it is
put in Manual via Digital Input 3 (DI3).

back into Automatic.
NOTE!
This function is disabled when the value in parameter P1090 is “0”.

This parameter defines the derivative gain value of the PID controller of the Pump Genius.
NOTE!
The PID controller of the standard Pump Genius Simplex application is of the academic type. Should
a different structure be adopted for the PID controller (through WLP), then the controller gains must
be re-optimized by the user. PID block input arguments can only be changed in the ladder
application developed with the WLP. Refer to the WLP programming software help topics for more
information on the PID block.
This group of parameters allows the user to set the conditions to startup and control the pumping, and it may be:
■ Wake up Mode: Configures the Pump Genius to start the pump and resume control of the pumping when the
deviation between the control process variable and the control setpoint reaches a programmed threshold;

control process variable reaches a programmed threshold;
Description:
This parameter defines the value to be reduced (direct PID) or increased (reverse PID) to the control setpoint for
starting the pump and resuming control of the pumping. Becoming this value is compared with the control process
variable and, if the value of the control process variable is less (direct PID) or greater (reverse PID) than this value,

rises above P1035.
NOTE!

Pump Genius plus Simplex | 45
Parameters Description
■ Wake up Mode: The Wake up condition, as defined in P1034, must remain TRUE continuously for the time
programmed in P1036, in order for the pump to start and pumping control to resume. The P1036 waiting time
restarts from zero, if the Wake up condition momentarily becomes FALSE.
■ Start Level Mode: The control process variable Start Level condition, as defined in P1035, must remain TRUE
continuously for the time programmed in P1036, in order for the pump to start and pumping control to resume. The
P1036 waiting time restarts from zero, if the Start Level condition momentarily becomes FALSE.
NOTE!
If in enabling of the Pump Genius operation (command Run/Stop active), the condition for Wake up
or Start by Level is active, the time set in P1036 is not awaited, and thus, the pump will start
operating immediately.
This group of parameters allows the user to set the conditions to stop the pump, and it may be:
■ Sleep Mode: Configures the Pump Genius to stop the pump when the pump motor speed or power drops below
a programmed threshold (low control demand). Even though apparently the pumping control is off, the control
process variable is still monitored for wake up or start level conditions.
■ Sleep Boost: Configures the Pump Genius so before stopping the pump when the pump motor speed or power
drops below a programmed threshold (low demand control), i.e., enable the sleep mode, to be added to the control
setpoint a value to increase the control process variable with the purpose of the pump will remain in sleep mode
longer.
P1037 – Pump Motor Speed below which Pump Genius goes to low Speed Sleep Mode
Description:
This parameter defines the value of the pump motor speed below which the Pump Genius will stop the pump
keeping the control active, i.e., will sleep.
NOTE!
A setting of “0 rpm” disables the sleep mode, it means that the pump will be started or stopped
according to the status of the command "Run/Stop”.
P1038 – Time Delay for Pump Genius goes to low Speed Sleep Mode
Description:
This parameter defines the waiting time with the value of the pump motor speed should remain below the value set

1 It defines that the pump is going to sleep based on the Flow Process variable.
Description:
This parameter defines the value of the pump motor power below which the Pump Genius will stop the pump
keeping the control active, i.e., will sleep.
NOTE!
A setting of “0 kW” disables the low Power sleep mode, it means that the pump will be started or
stopped according to the status of the command "Run/Stop”.
Description:
This parameter defines the value of the Flow below which the Pump Genius will stop the pump keeping the
control active, i.e., will sleep.
NOTE!
A setting of “0” disables the Flow sleep mode, it means that the pump will be started or stopped
according to the status of the command "Run/Stop”.
P1089 – Time Delay for Pump Genius goes to low Power or low Flow Sleep Mode
NOTE!
The alarm message "A750: Sleep Mode Active" will be generated on the HMI of the CFW-11 inverter
to alert that the Pump Genius is in sleep mode.
Description:
This parameter defines the value to be added to the control setpoint in automatic mode to increase the control
process variable before the Pump Genius go into sleep mode. When the control process variable reaches the
control setpoint value added to the sleep boost offset, the Pump Genius will go into sleep mode.
NOTE!
This parameter is displayed according to the selection of the engineering unit 1 parameters (P0510
and P0511). A setting of “0” disable the sleep boost. This function is only enabled to use for control
action of the PID controller in direct mode (P1028=1).
NOTE!
The alarm message “A756: Sleep Boost Active” will be generated on the HMI of the CFW-11 inverter
to alert that the Pump Genius is executing the sleep boost.
Description:
This parameter defines the maximum time that the control process variable has to reach the control setpoint value
added to the sleep boost offset, i.e., the maximum time that the sleep boost will be active. If the control process
variable does not reach the control setpoint value added to the sleep boost offset during this time, the Pump Genius
will go into sleep mode.

into sleep mode.
This group of parameters allows the user to configure the Pump Genius to execute the pipe charging sequence
using the pump driven by the CFW-11 inverter.
The Pipe Charging assures that the pumping pipe is charged gradually, thus avoiding the “water hammer” pressure
shock at the instant the pipe is filled with fluid. It is executed every time the Pump Genius receives a new enable,
either via enable command or an exit from a disabled by fault state. If the control process variable in the newly
enabled Pump Genius is already at a certain value, and it enters sleep mode, the pipe charging sequence is not
executed.
The PID Ramp assures that the process variable will gradually increase to the control setpoint when leaving Pipe
Charge mode, reducing the possible effects of overshoot and water hammer in the system
NOTE!
If in enabling the Pump Genius operation (command Run/Stop active) it enters into sleep mode, the
pipe charging process will not be executed.
Description:
This parameter allows enabling of the pipe charging sequence (assigns to the SoftPLC function the ramp selection
command) using the pump driven by CFW-11 inverter.
NOTE!
The alarm message “A752: Pipe Charging” will be generated in the HMI of the CFW-11 inverter
providing an alert that the Pump Genius control is in the pipe charging sequence.
Description:
This parameter defines the time for pump genius to be running in pipe charging mode.
Description:
This parameter defines the time base for the pipe charge time set in P1041.
P1042 Description
P1065 – Minimum process Variable (pressure) to change from Pipe Charge to PID Ramp
Description:
This parameter defines the minimum process variable (pressure) for pump genius to leave Pipe Charge mode and
begin PID Ramp mode.
Description:
This parameter defines the time for pump genius to be running in PID Ramp mode. PID ramp will start after the
time set in P1041 (Pipe charging time) or when the control process variable (P1016) reaches the point set in P1065
(minimum pressure to change from pipe charge to PID ramp)
NOTE!
The alarm message “A753: PID Ramp Active” will be generated in the HMI of the CFW-11 inverter
providing an alert that the Pump Genius control is in the PID ramp sequence.
NOTE!
A setting of “0 sec” disables PID ramp.
Description:
This parameter defines a second acceleration time for the pump driven by CFW-11 inverter, it is the initial ramp
rate for the purpose of pipe charging.
NOTE!
Set this time short if application is using a submersible pump requiring high initial thrust.
NOTE!
Refer to the CFW-11 inverter programming manual for more information on the ramp parameters.
The figure 3.13 presents a timing analysis of the Pump Genius operation when is configured for execution of the
pipe charging and PID ramp sequence (the PID controller shown in this example is Direct Mode, which is, however,
irrelevant for the pipe charging sequence):
Figure 3.13 – Operation of the Pump Genius with pipe charge and PID Ramp enabled
1 – The Run/Stop command via digital input DI1 enables starting the motor, but also enables the operation of Pump
Genius. As the control process variable is lower than the control process deviation for Pump Genius to wake up
(P1034), the time delay to wake up (P1036) is ignored and the command to run is issued. As pipe charging is
enabled (P0105), the time count (P1041) is initiated, while the PID controller remains disabled. The pump is
accelerated to the minimum speed (P0133) with a slower ramp in order to avoid the “water hammer” or a faster
ramp time with a submersible pump requiring high initial thrust.
2 – The pump speed reaches the value programmed for minimum speed (P0133) and continues at this speed
during the time for pipe charging (P1041). During this time, the PID controller is disabled. If the value of the
maximum output current during the pipe charging (P1042) is not zero, this value is used in the motor current limit
instead of what is set in P0135 during the pipe charging;
3 – The time for pipe charging (P1041) is elapsed or in this case, the minimum pressure to change to PID Ramp is
reached (P1065) PID Ramp then ramps the control process variable up proportionally using the difference between
the Process Variable actual and the Process Variable user setpoint over the time period set (P1073)
4 – at this moment the PID controller is enabled and begins to increase or decrease the pump speed in order for
the control process variable to align with the control setpoint required by the user;
5 – A short time later the control process variable stabilizes and pumping continues at steady speed.
This group of parameters allows the user to configure an external pump commands for a digital output of the CFW-
11 inverter to control the pumping when the demand is minimal, i.e., as a jockey pump.
NOTE!
Enabling the use of an external pump is done by programming the digital input DI1 on "21 = Enable
External Pump" and programming the digital output DO1 on "28 = Start External Pump".
The use of External Pump for Jockey Pump Function allows the use of a lower power pump to execute the
control of the pumping when the demand is minimal. This external pump can be started and stopped several times,
thus preventing the pump driven by the CFW-11 inverter is started when the consumption is low.
P1060 – Control Process Variable Level for Stopping the External Pump
Description:
This parameter defines the value of control process variable above which the external pump will be stopped.
P1061 – Control Process Variable Level for Starting the External Pump
Description:
This parameter defines the value of control process variable below which the external will be started.
NOTE!
Parameters P1060 and P1061 are displayed according to the selection of the engineering unit 1

but as the pump motor torque is still greater than the threshold programmed to detect dry pump (P1044), pumping
continues while the value of the control process variable continues to decrease;

This group of parameters allows the user to configure a control auxiliary variable for the protection of pump. This
protection is accomplished by reading a sensor installed on an analog input, and comparing its value with low level
conditions. The low level condition is directly associated with pump cavitation protection.
Cavitation is a phenomenon that occurs in a pump when the pressure at the inlet side of the rotor drops below the
vapor pressure of the pumped liquid, resulting in evaporation with the formation of small vapor bubbles (cavities) in
the liquid part. When these cavities, formed in the low pressure region of the rotor, reach the high pressure region
at the outlet side of the rotor, they immediately collapse, returning to the liquid phase. The rapid implosion of the
cavities results in violent shock waves and momentary huge temperature gradients between the bubble surface
and the surrounding liquid (10000°C have been measured). If, prior to their collapse, these bubbles adhere to rotor
surfaces, their implosion produces micro jets, which impact the surface with sufficient energy to remove microscopic
amounts of material. Immediate negative consequences of cavitation and its cumulative effects over extended
periods of time are as follows:
Occurrence of pump cavitation can be prevented by avoiding operation with insufficient liquid at the inlet of the
pump. Installing an external sensor in the suction part, for example a level sensor, which measures the inlet
reservoir fluid level, can help detect conditions that lead to cavitation. When this level is below a certain threshold,
the control setpoint is changed to a value that reduces pump suction, thus lowering the pressure difference between
the inlet and outlet of the pump.

This function should only be enabled on a pump that can run with rotation in the reverse pumping
direction; otherwise, it may cause damage to it.

direction of the pumping and with the speed reference to deragging (P1054); the PID controller stays disabled. In
this moment the counting time of pump running (P1055) is initiated;
9 – The pump is accelerated until the speed reference for deragging (P1054) with the acceleration ramp set in
P0100 parameter and stays in this speed until that the counting time of pump running (P1055) is elapsed;
10 – The deragging run time (P1055) is elapsed; in this moment is done the command to stop the pump in direction
of the pumping;
11 – The pump is decelerated to the zero speed as the deceleration ramp set in the P0101 parameter and stays
stopped. In this moment the counter of cycles is increased and the counting time of pump stopped (P1056) is
initiated; the steps 2 to 9 occur again until that the number of cycles is equal to the number of cycles for deragging
(P1053);
12 – The number of cycles arrives to the number of cycles for deragging (P1053) programmed and the last cycle is
initiated; thus, the deragging stop time (P1056) is initiated;
13 – The deragging stop time (P1056) is elapsed; in this moment is done the command to run the pump in the
reverse direction of the pumping and with the speed reference to deragging (P1054); the PID controller stays
disabled. In this moment the counting time of pump running (P1055) is initiated
14 – The pump is accelerated until the speed reference for deragging (P1054) with the acceleration ramp set in
P0100 parameter and stays in this speed until that the counting time of pump running (P1055) is elapsed;
15 – The deragging run time (P1055) is elapsed; in this moment is done the command to stop the pump in reverse
direction of the pumping;
16 – The pump is decelerated to the zero speed as the deceleration ramp set in the P0101 parameter and stays
stopped. In this moment the counting time of pump stopped (P1056) is initiated
17 – The deragging stop time (P1056) is elapsed; in this moment is done the command to run the pump and control
the pumping again, i.e., the deragging function was finished;
18 – The pump is accelerated until the minimum speed reference. After this the PID controller is enabled and starts
to control the pump speed in order for the control process variable to catch up with the control setpoint required by
the user.
This group of parameters allows the user to enable the logic to execute the Flow limiting function in the pumping
system.
Its basic principle is to at all times monitor the flow while maintaining a PV setpoint, it will cap the flow in real time
by reducing the PV to maintain the flow setpoint, it will achieve this seamlessly avoiding hammer or flipping
between control methods.

∟ 30 HMI .....
Description:
This parameter selects the engineering unit that will be displayed in the SoftPLC user parameter that is associated
with it. I.e., any SoftPLC user parameter that is associated with the engineering unit 4 will be displayed in this format
on the CFW-11 inverter HMI.
NOTE!
The parameters P1070, P1071, P1072, P1075, P1076 and P1079 are associated with engineering
unit 4.
Description:
This parameter defines the maximum level (or range) of the control auxiliary variable sensor for pump protection
according to its engineering unit.
NOTE!
The minimum level of the Flow auxiliary variable sensor is “0”.
NOTE!
This parameter is displayed according to the selection of the engineering unit 4 parameters (P0516
and P0517).
The relationship between the analog input, AI4, configured for flow auxiliary variable sensor, and the display value,
P1072, in engineering units, is as follows:
Description:
This parameter defines the Flow auxiliary variable setpoint above which the control setpoint will be changed to
restrict the flow. I.e., when high flow is detected, the control setpoint will be reduced to a different value (lower),
until the flow is equal to this setpoint (P1071) assuring a decrease in consumption of the pump, preventing the
system from operating beyond its flow constraints.
NOTE!
The alarm "A754: Flow is Restricted " and the actual Flow (1072) will be represented on the third
line of the HMI of the CFW-11 inverter to alert that the flow auxiliary variable is in control of the
system.
NOTE!
This parameter is displayed according to the selection of the engineering unit 4 parameters (P0516
and P0517).
Description:
This parameter defines the time/hour that the daily total flow accumulated will reset, restarting the flow count
(P1076) for the following 24hr period.
NOTE!
This parameter is displayed according to the selection of the engineering unit 4 parameters (P0516
and P0517).
Description:
This parameter sets the maximum total daily flow allowance setpoint above which (in a 24hr period) the pump
genius system will go to “sleep”. The system will “wake up” once the time reaches the reset time P1074.
NOTE!
The alarm message "A751: over daily limit" will be generated in the HMI of the CFW-11 inverter, to
alert that the maximum total daily flow allowance has been reached.
NOTE!
This parameter is displayed according to the selection of the engineering unit 4 parameters (P0516
