FAQ

Question: How does Grundfos Connect Demand Distribution manage sudden peaks in demand if it only communicates once a day and receives the data after 24 hours?

Answer:

Demand Distribution works according to the flow, not the pressure. If there is a sudden peak, there is no problem. Demand Distribution’s advanced pressure management system has already been "learning" the head loss pattern. Demand Distribution builds and keeps adjusting a control curve over time, so it knows what to do.

Additional information:

If it is the first time Demand Distribution encounters a high peak flow, it increases the pressure to the max pressure defined (i.e. the threshold on the control curve).
