Commissioning Deep Well Pump Control

STEP 1

NOTE: System needs to be filled, pressurized, and ready for flow. 

Pre-set pilots as noted:

Opening and Closing Speed 

– Prior to pump start, actuate manual operator on solenoid to enable diaphragm assembly to stroke 

open and closed. Observing the limit switch stem indicator, monitor rate of opening and closing speed. Adjust accordingly per applica-
tion requirements.  

Pressure Relief Pilot –

 Screw pilot adjusting screw clockwise completely. 

Note: 

Cycle diaphragm multiple times to confirm rate of movement and remove excess air trapped within the cover chambers (See 

Figure 1 Below).

To increase the rate of opening/closing, turn the adjustment 
screws on the speed controls OUT, counterclockwise (See Figure 
2B on following page). In decrease the rate of opening/closing, 
turn the adjustment screws on the speed controls IN, clockwise 
(See Figure 2A on following page).

STEP 2

Prior to pump start, energize the solenoid to confirm connection 
to power source.

STEP 3

De-energize the solenoid prior to initial pump start.

STEP 4 

Energize the solenoid at pump start to close the main valve, 
checking that the main valve closes.
