The size of the global digital pump controller market is expected to be worth USD 17.12 billion by 2029 from USD 12.79 billion in 2024, growing at a CAGR of 6% during the forecast period.
Digital pump controllers are utilized instead of traditional approaches to meet the needs for manual operation of those pumps that are used to pump water from a tank or any water source to the needed region. The pump is made of an electric sensor, which is utilized in a digital pump controller and provides more accurate data than traditional pump controllers that employ a pneumatic sensor and are incapable of delivering accurate data. A visible control panel is installed on top of the digital pump controller, allowing effective administration of the device's overall performance. Digital pump controllers can also be controlled via mobile or remote access. Additionally, SCADA systems, SMS/GSM, radio frequency, and mobile apps can all be used to control these digital pump controllers.
A digital pump controller has been created for remotely monitoring and controlling irrigation, agricultural, and water levels, particularly in the oil and gas industry. The requirement for pump controllers to govern the operations of the water pumps is growing as more water pumps are being installed around the world. Digital pump controllers can operate automatically by turning on or off the pump whenever the water storage capacity reaches a certain level. These pumps guarantee the least amount of water loss possible and are a major driver of the demand for digital pump controls. The water conservation measures and numerous water & wastewater treatment projects by the governments of several countries are anticipated to accelerate the growth rate of the global market. The emerging countries have been putting increased emphasis on improving agricultural precision, which is expected to encourage the market participants to manufacture pump controllers that are simple to use and use very little energy.
Digital pump controllers are the safest and most complete failure-proof option for assuring continuous and automated pumping action and ensuring long life and trouble-free operation of the pumps. Automatic operation is possible with a digital pump controller. When the water holding capacity reaches a specified level, the controller will turn on or off, which supports the growth rate of the global market. The guarantee of little water waste of digital pump controllers is further fueling the market’s growth rate. An increase in the number of government programs for water conservation and projects for water & wastewater treatment is favoring the digital pump controller market growth.
The adoption of digital pump controllers is poor in some countries due to a lack of advanced technology and are unaware of the advantages of employing digital pump controllers. Higher initial costs for digital pump controllers, shortage of skilled personnel, risk of cybersecurity incidents in industrial control systems, integration challenges with existing systems, and concerns about reliability and downtime are further impeding the growth of the digital pump controller market.
