AI Technical Summary
Existing multi-pump systems operate on fixed cycle times, leading to uneven wear and increased probability of premature pump failure due to unaccounted differences in operating hours or age among pumps.
A method to dynamically adjust the runtime and activation frequency of pumps based on their individual operating hours and age, ensuring even wear by varying the operating duration and frequency according to a pump's specific state.
Reduces the likelihood of premature pump failure by balancing the operating hours and wear across pumps, thereby extending the system's operational lifespan and reducing maintenance costs.
