1. General 

 

The BOSS™ X-POT6+ is a ‘Plug and Play’ unit. It is supplied factory set with the WILO 
Pump set to ‘

SPEED 3

’ and the Differential Pressure across the Filter Vessel set to 

0.4 Bar

.

The operator should read this section prior to hand-over of the equipment from the 
installation operative to be confident on the operation of the VEXO

®

 iX-1 Controller and 

the BOSS™ X-POT6+ unit as a whole.

The Control System is based around a VEXO

®

 iX-1 Controller complete with I/O modules. 

A Display Panel is fitted to the VEXO

®

 iX-1 Controller to allow interrogation and 

adjustment of the parameters. 

In the event of a power failure, the VEXO

®

 iX-1 Controller will return to its factory set 

operating mode once power has been restored.

The Power supply to the BOSS™ X-POT6+ is provided from the main system pump 
electrical supply. Therefore, the BOSS™ X-POT6+ will only be activated when the main 
system pumps are running and active. 

 

Ensure the power supply to the BOSS™ X-POT6+ is 230V ~ 1 N PE 50Hz via a suitable 
Fused Spur.

The power supply is then connected to the main BOSS™ X-POT6+ Mains Isolation Switch, 
refer to the unit schematic, item 22 on page 10 (Schematic) of this document. 

The power is then distributed throughout the BOSS™ X-POT6+ via an internal wiring loom.
