•in lifting units,

•for submersible pumps.

DANGER! Risk of fatal injury!
The switchgear is not protected against explosions and
may not be operated in the explosive area.

•Always install the switchgear outside the explosive

area.

•Use breakdown barriers when using float switches in

potentially explosive areas.

6. DESCRIPTION AND FUNCTION

6.1 Description of the product (Fig. 1)

The EC-Drain 2x4.0 is an electronic switchgear with a built-in
microcontroller.

It controls two pumps depending on the switching status of the
connected float switch. When the high water level is reached,
an optical and acoustic signal are output and there is a forced
pump switch-on. The collective fault signal and high water
alarm are active.

An optional rechargeable battery (accessory) enables a
mains-independent alarm signal, which indicates the mains
voltage is missing by means of a continuous acoustic signal.

Pump faults are registered and evaluated.

The display of the operating statuses is signalled by LEDs on the
front. It is operated by buttons on the right side of the housing.
