BPC Series
QUICK START GUIDE
BERKELEY Pump Controller
ABOUT
The BERKELEY Pump Controller (BPC) is pre-jumpered
and programmed with the
BERKELEY Assistant, provid-
ing ease of setup for constant pressure applications. The
BERKELEY Assistant defaults to pre-defined parameters
as described in this guide, and also prompts the user for
application-specific information.
This guide covers the startup of the
BERKELEY
Assistant for constant pressure applications. For other
programs, refer to the ABB manual provided.
SAFETY
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or
cause death.
Ground pump before connecting to power
supply. Disconnect power before working on system
components.
Wire pump motor for correct voltage. See motor
nameplate.
Ground motor to drive before connecting to
power supply.
Meet National Electrical Code, Canadian Electrical
Code, and local codes for all wiring.
INSTALLATION
Connect Transducer
Install the transducer where pressure is to be maintained.
The
BERKELEY Assistant requires a 4 - 20 ma transduc-
er (Figure 2). The transducer’s power lead should be
attached to terminal 10 or the terminals as shown below
and the 4 - 20 ma output lead should be attached to ter-
minal 5 (Figure 3). The transducer has a brown power
lead and a blue 4 - 20 ma output lead.
(All jumper terminals may need to be loosened to attach
leads above the jumper board).
The jumper board eliminates the need to hand wire termi-
nals 9 to 11, 10 to 19, 11 to 12 and 18 to 21.
Before applying power, make sure the front cover is on
and the control module is in place.
Startup the
BERKELEY Assistant
Apply power to the unit, and follow
the steps on Pages 2 and 3 after
the controller’s screen is lit.
