#vfdcommissioning

To improve pump control and eliminate downtime, our team delivered the complete supply, installation, and commissioning of the ABB ACS800-04M-0320-5 AC Drive for a major water treatment plant in Makkah.

Why this project was critical

Water plants rely on continuous motor operation. Without proper VFD commissioning, issues like overcurrent, unstable speed, and high energy consumption can appear quickly.

What we did

Installed and wired the ACS800 drive inside the control panel

Configured parameters for pump application

Integrated with PLC and protection system

Performed full testing & commissioning under load

Results

Stable and reliable pump performance

Zero faults after commissioning

Better energy efficiency

Client satisfaction and long-term reliability

Correct VFD commissioning is the key to performance and reliability in water treatment plants.

We handle VFD supply, installation, commissioning, troubleshooting, and optimization for industrial sectors.

At Riyadh Al Etqan Co., we successfully completed the commissioning & start-up of Siemens SINAMICS G120X (4 units) through Profinet communication, along with the commissioning of an ABB ACS880 drive on a pumping application for Petromin.

🔹 Project Highlights:

Seamless Profinet integration with PLC system.

Optimized pump performance with ABB ACS880.

Reliable low voltage drive commissioning ensuring efficiency and safety.

Reduced downtime and improved energy efficiency.

🔹 Why It Matters?

The Siemens SINAMICS G120X is designed for low-voltage applications, particularly pumps and fans, delivering stable operation, energy savings, and flexible communication. Through our commissioning expertise, the client achieved higher reliability, smooth operation, and long-term efficiency.

This project demonstrates our capability in VFD commissioning, industrial automation, and Profinet integration across critical infrastructure sectors.

successfully commissioned 9 ABB ACS880 low voltage drives (from 96A to 361A) to operate cooler fans motors – a critical part of the production cooling process.

This large-scale VFD commissioning project included:

Capacitor reforming for safe startup of stored drives

Installation of new LV drive cabinets and motors

Power quality measurements using FLUKE 435 Series II – before and after installation

Full start-up and tuning of ABB ACS880 drives to optimize motor control and reduce harmonics

Results: ✔️ Enhanced motor performance and cooling efficiency

✔️ Reduced harmonic distortion and energy losses

✔️ Seamless integration with plant automation systems

✔️ Delivered on time with zero downtime
