About
The PENTEK Pump Controller (PPC5) is pre-jumpered
and programmed with the PENTEK Assistant, providing
ease of setup for constant pressure applications. The
PENTEK Assistant defaults to pre-defined parameters
as described in this guide, and also prompts the user for
application-specific information.
This guide covers the startup of the PENTEK Assistant
for constant pressure applications. For other programs,
refer to the ABB manual provided.

Connect transducer
Install the transducer where pressure is to be maintained.
The PENTEK Assistant requires a 4 - 20 ma transducer
(Figure 2). The transducer’s power lead should be
attached to terminal 10 or the terminals as shown below
and the 4 - 20 ma output lead should be attached to ter-
minal 5 (Figure 3). The transducer has a brown power
lead and a blue 4 - 20 ma output lead.
(All jumper terminals may need to be loosened to attach
leads above the jumper board).
The jumper board eliminates the need to hand wire termi-
nals 9 to 11, 10 to 19, 11 to 12 and 18 to 21.
Before applying power, make sure the front cover is on
and the control module is in place.
Startup the PENTEK Assistant
Apply power to the unit, and follow the steps on Pages 2
and 3 after the controller’s screen is lit.
