TECHNICAL DATA
CONSTRUCTION
The F30 controllers have no metal parts in contact with
liquids. They operate magnetically through their
thermoplastic housings. They are therefore ideally suited
to use in aggressive ground water, seawater or chlorinated
water and with a huge variety of chemical solutions
including most acids and alkalis.
The F30 is made from a blend of ABS and polypropylene
thermoplastics, specifically tailored to give the highest
possible performance, in terms of mechanical strength,
ultraviolet stability, and chemical inertness. All the F30
controllers use our well proven magnetic suspension
system, to give both a frictionless spring return action to
the paddle, and total isolation of the electronic module.
The microprocessor-based electronics built into the F30
have both brown out and over voltage protection built-in.
INSTALLATION
The F30 pump controller can be fitted to any type of pipe,
25mm (1 inch) diameter or larger and should be mounted
in a straight section of the pump’s discharge pipe,
downstream of the air cell. A 1"BSP female thread socket
or tee must be provided to fit the controller. To make
setting up the system simple, isolation valves and a bleed
valve should be fitted to the pump as shown in the
accompanying sketch.
