how to set PID control in VFD that operate a centrifuge pump transporting juice being concentrated 1

Dear engineers
I have a customer that is using a Siemens VFD manually to operate a centrifugal pump that transports juice with different Brix grade and the only reason he is using the VFD is for the start of the pump and is not getting a benefit of the affinity law to save energy running the pump.
Would someone help to set up a PID control for the VFD?
I would appreciate very much any help you can provide us
Thank you.

You probably realize this but the data should be correlated with the viscosity.
