6.  Refer to Figure 1. Connect the three motor control 

wires from the pump junction box to labeled 

terminals observing color coding of wires (Black to 

Black, Orange to Orange, Red to Red). Connect 

the ground wire from the submersible pump to the 

ground lug on the 

Eco

VFC circuit board. 

To avoid the risk of potentially lethal 

electrical shock, fire, or explosion, 

always tag and lock circuit breakers 

in the off position before opening the 

EcoVFC.

After disconnecting power to the 

EcoVFC, wait one minute after LED 

display blanks before opening the 

cover for servicing. Voltage stored 

in the capacitor bank of the EcoVFC 

presents a risk of potentially lethal 

electrical shock even after power is 

disconnected.

Note

:  If the motor power wires are not connected with 

the proper polarity, the motor will run in reverse 

rotation causing output pressures of approximately 

1.2 - 2.0 bar (17-29 psi) with a PMA VS4 and 

approximately 0.7 - 1.2 bar (10-18 psi) with a PMA 

VS2 connected.

7.  Connect three phase, 360-440V, 50 or 60Hz power 

supply to terminals to N, L1, L2 and L3. Reference 

Figure 1 for wiring details.

Note:  The EcoVFC must be connected to three-phase 

power only. 

If 200-250V, 50 Hz, Single Phase 

power supply is only available, the EcoVFC must 

be replaced with the FE Petro MagVFC, which 

will olny be capable of driving a PMA VS2 in this 

application.

 

Do not connect incoming power to 

any terminals other than L1, L2, and 

L3. Connecting input power to any 

other terminals will cause failure and 

permanent damage to the EcoVFC.

There must be NO hook signal present 

when applying power to the controller.

8.  Connect dispenser hook signal to the two position 

terminal block on the EcoVFC board as shown in 

Figure 1. 

Note

:  Dispenser hook terminals are capable of accepting 

voltages from 110 VAC through 240 VAC 

dispenser signals. The dispenser hook terminals 

require a signal wire from the dispenser and a 

Neutral / Return. 

9.  Configuration switches are factory set for PMA 

VS2 in gasoline, mechanical leak detectors, 

extended run active, and stand-alone operation 

as detailed below in Figure 4. If you are using 

a different configuration see the Option Select 

section of this manual.
