Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about Speck aquaculture pumps, filters, VFDs, and how to get the right system for your facility.

What are Speck Variable Frequency Drives used for?

Speck Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) control pump motor speed to match required flow, helping aquaculture facilities reduce energy use and fine-tune circulation for hatcheries, aquariums, and research systems.

Do Speck VFDs work with Speck aquaculture pumps?

Yes. Speck VFDs are designed to work with Speck aquaculture pumps and are included in the Automated Flow System alongside a flow meter and high-rate multimedia filter.

How can VFDs save energy in aquaculture?

By adjusting pump speed to the flow you need instead of running at full speed continuously, VFDs can lower electricity use while maintaining stable water quality and circulation.
