Advanced Pump Motor Controllers for Brushless DC and Custom Applications

We offer a range of motor controllers suitable for pump and process control applications


Our motor controllers are specifically designed for pumps, delivering the precision, efficiency, and reliability needed for various applications, including water, HVAC, and industrial systems. We understand that different pump need dedicated pump motor controllers, and our custom solutions are built to address those needs head-on. Zikodrive's controllers are engineered to provide unparalleled precision and efficiency, using advanced control algorithms to regulate pump speed and flow with accuracy. This results in significant energy savings and can extend the life of your pump.

Why Use a Dedicated Pump Motor Controller?

Standard motor controllers often don't meet the specific demands of pump applications, which require precise and efficient control to optimise performance and save energy. Our controllers are built with these unique requirements in mind. They provide:

  • Variable speed control for precise pump performance.
  • Optimised efficiency for significant energy savings.
  • A range of 'pump specific' features that can be quickly implemented.
  • Support for BLDC, synchronous, and asynchronous motors.
  • Customisable hardware and firmware tailored to your specific pump needs.

Compact, reliable designs for continuous operation.

Key Features of Zikodrive Pump Controllers

Our controllers offer several key features that set them apart:

  • Precision and Efficiency: Our advanced control algorithms ensure accurate regulation of pump speed and flow, leading to improved efficiency and reduced energy consumption.
  • Energy Savings: The precise control helps to significantly lower energy costs over the lifespan of the pump.
  • We can develop firmware to be perfectly optimised to the performance requirements of your pump, whether its electromechanical or application driven requirements.

Versatility: We offer solutions that are compatible with a variety of pump types and can be used in different industries.

Applications in Water, HVAC, and Industrial Systems

Our BLDC pump controllers are ideal for a range of uses. They provide reliable and energy-efficient performance for water pumps, HVAC systems, and other specialist industrial applications. Whether you're moving fluids in a large industrial facility or a residential HVAC system, our controllers deliver the performance you need.

Brushless DC (BLDC) and Custom Pump Controller Solutions

We specialise in designing and manufacturing custom pump motor controllers, including those for BLDC and brushless DC pumps. 

Our solutions can be tailored to meet your exact specifications, ensuring perfect integration and maximum performance. We also offer bespoke motor control design services for unique project requirements.

FAQs

As with any custom designed motor controller, the benefits range from the simple and perhaps obvious to the more advanced. At its simplest, a custom motor controller for your pump can be tailored to the specific requirements of the pump and nothing more. This leads to significant cost (and form) savings. Firmware can be customised to operate in a pre-determined way depending on a wide range of factors (for example autostarts, operating up to max current or flow rate ceilings etc.). In short, the motor control solution will deliver exactly what you want, when you want it.

Further benefits come when one considers the manufacturing and assembly process for pumps. Custom motor control solutions can be designed for DFM, enabling you to quickly load in the motor controller and perform whatever tests are needed quickly and without fuss. In large scale production? We can supply any volume requirement, fully pre-programmed and ready to go.

By providing variable speed control and optimising performance, motor controllers ensure the pump only uses the energy needed for the task, which reduces waste and saves energy. Direct testing and monitoring of the pump enables us to select PWM frequencies and other performance factors which can deliver the quietest, most reliable from your pump enabling long life and excellent reliability over time by preventing over-currents or over-temperatures.

Our controllers are compatible with various pump types, including submersible, gear, centrifugal, and peristaltic pumps, as well as those with BLDC, synchronous, and asynchronous motors.

Can your controllers be used in harsh environments?

Our motor controllers have been used in a wide range of applications including in typical MIL spec environments (-40 to 125C). We work to a range of compliance standards for hardware, firmware and manufacturing. We will work with you to understand your requirements, what's needed and how we can support you in achieving this.

Our production facility also includes conformal coating and potting capability so, where protection is needed for electronics, we can supply this.
