9.1 Control panel
9.1.1 Control panel for the jockey pump
The jockey pump is controlled by a dedicated panel that
automatically manages the operation of the pump based on the
state in a low-voltage powered pressure switch, isolated from the
network by a transformer.
The starting method of the electric motor is direct-on-line (DL).
A lockable general door-lock disconnector (pos. A) allows safe
maintenance.

9.1.1.2 Motor thermal protection setting
You can set the motor protection current by setting the dip switch
(SW1) to select one out of the eight values. The setting procedure
is described in detail in the wiring diagram supplied with the system.
Each one of the above values, if needed, can be increased up to
130% by setting on the trimmer AMP%.
If the motor current is above the set value, the pump stops and a
dedicated LED is lit.
If the current value returns below the set threshold, the alarm
resets automatically after one minute. After three unsuccessful
attempts within five minutes, a manual reset is required.
9.1.1.3 Clicson motor protection
If the motor of the jockey pump is equipped with a Clicson, this can
be used to identify the condition of overtemperature and to stop the
pump.
The alarm condition must be reset manually.
This function is disabled at the factory and if necessary, can be
activated by the user during commissioning by removing the
bridge between the relevant terminals and connecting the Clicson.
Refer to the wiring diagram for the Clicson connection.
