SelfSensing Pumps
During increasing demand, the pump rides to the right (down) on the pump curve.
The SelfSensing pump automatically responds and keeps the pump on the control curve. (follow A to B and so on)

SelfSensing Pumps
When you use the pump selection wizard, the software generates a control curve that is unique to your system configuration.
If you do not specify a control head, at time of order, Taco uses 40% of the design operating point.
You can adjust the control head on the selection wizard and specify the desired value on your order

SelfSensing Pumps vs. Sensors
• Sensors are frequently placed in the wrong location in the system; this incorrect sensor placement results in system inefficiency.
• In a typical system, trial and error must be used (i.e. physically moving the sensor) until the optimum location is determined.
• Another strategy is to use multiple sensors to increase the odds of correct placement.
• These strategies can become costly.
• Even if correct placement is achieved, correct setpoint is rarely used.

SelfSensing Pumps vs. Sensors
The SelfSensing pump has an advantage over sensors because you no longer have to worry about the sensor location. The SelfSensing pump automatically operates on the control curve shown.
You can quickly adjust the control head on a SelfSensing pump in the field. Adjusting the control head is akin to moving the sensor to a new more optimal location in the building. This optimization strategy is now significantly quicker and cheaper when using a SelfSensing pump.

If you are having trouble deciding whether to use a SelfSensing pump or a sensor, just ask :How often does the construction team know in advance what the optimum location will be?How often does the construction team place the sensor in the perfect location?
