With over 35 years experience and knowledge of manufacturing variable speed electrical control systems, Drive Systems Ltd provide fixed and variable speed drives, control panels and will commission and install both the mechanical equipment and electrical supplies, as required. Drive Systems Limited is a wholly owned independent company founded in 1986 by its present directors to promote the use of packaged inverter drive systems into a wide range of industrial applications so that they could benefit from the flexibility of control and the large potential energy savings that this, then, emerging new technology could provide. Many areas of industry, from pet food manufacturers to woodworking machine makers and from the nuclear industry to the water companies became valued customers and benefited from bespoke packaged drive systems tailored to their specific application. The water companies soon became the source of the majority of the companies workload, with inverter based drive systems being developed for wet well submersible pump systems, rectangular bacteria bed distributors (both rope hauled and independently driven) and for circular filter bed distributor drives. This latter drive system, enjoying patent protection of its principles of operation, has been a huge success and over 2000 systems have been supplied into all of the UK`s Water Companies, as well as to numerous overseas locations. Drive Systems has recognised the need, not only to provide products and packaged control systems, but also to provide an installation and commissioning service which ensures optimised performance from the existing plant. Drive Systems site programme includes installation of both mechanical and electrical equipment on prepared foundations. The service is not complete without the inter connection of all items of equipment, including cables, cable trays and ducts, as required. Lighting, heating, ventilation are a natural extension of this work. Drive Systems can provide Fixed and variable speed drives for pumps and fans Control panels and cabinets designed for specific applications Percolating circular filter bed drives and control Percolating rectangular filter bed drives and control Complete installation both mechanical: cabling and electrical supplies Commissioning and test Servicing and repairs

Powering and Transforming Sustainable Water Infrastructure Our transformers play a crucial role in the water sector, ensuring the smooth operation of wastewater treatment works (WwTW), sewage treatment works (STWs), and water treatment works (WTW). By adjusting voltage levels to power water pumps, motors, and other equipment, they ensure optimal performance across all systems. In addition to voltage regulation, transformers guarantee reliable power delivery to critical water infrastructure, preventing service downtime, such as water distribution and water treatment. Moreover, Transformers like Wilson e4 contribute to increased energy efficiency by optimising power usage, reducing energy losses, and supporting sustainable practices in water utilities. We understand the main challenges in the water market sector: Energy efficiency aims to reduce costs and minimise environmental impact. Grid stability is crucial, and transformers safeguard a steady power supply for water infrastructure and seamless service delivery Ageing infrastructure requires urgent upgrades with modern transformers enhancing efficiency and reliability, minimising the risk of outages or failures. We are a leading provider of transformer solutions, including in the water sector. With decades of expertise, we deliver tailored, reliable, high-quality transformer systems for water treatment plants, wastewater facilities, and critical infrastructure.
