Manual for Installation, Operation, Maintenance
thank you for purchasing a Lorentz PUMP.
Before you begin
Check the model numbers of all the
components of your system, and verify that they are the
items that you ordered. Also check against the PUMP speci-
fications and performance charts (end of this manual) to be
sure the system is appropriate for your application.
Please fill in the SYSteM rePort
This will be essen-
tial information if any problems occur.
Read the manuals of pump end, charger (optionally) and
other components used in your system

1.3 Mechanical Installation
Position
If it is outdoors, mount the controller in a verti-
cal position to assure that rain will not enter the box.
Battery system
Place the controller near the batteries
but safely isolated from the battery terminals and from cor-
rosive gases. (Batteries must be in a cool location for best
longevity and enclosed for cleanliness and safety.) Con-
nect the battery directly with the + and – Terminal of the
controller. Do not use the load terminals of the charge con-
troller as they maybe not strong enough to allow the start
current to flow. The PS600 Controller has a low voltage
function to protect the batteries from deep discharge. The
charger ( additional) is only needed for charging the bat-
teries.
1.4 Controller Input Wiring
WArnInG teSt tHe VoLtAGe before
connecting power to the controller.
Voltage (open circuit) must not exceed
150V for PS600 Controller. (even in
cloudy weather, the open circuit voltage will be
near maximumW.)
WArnInG Do not apply a direct
connection or an amp meter b
and – when the controller is connected.
A short circuit here will cause a strong
discharge.
WArnInG SoLAr-DIreCt systems only
— Do not connect any electrical load to
the solar array if it is not part of the
Lorentz Pump system. Connection of a
battery charger, active solar tracker controller,
electric fence charger, or other load simultaneously
with Lorentz PS systems may “confuse” the
controller and prevent proper operation.
