Storing Pump Plug Kit
The Watermaster® IC is a means of control for the Whale® Watermaster® High Flow system, which allows it to
operate without the need for pressure switch adjustment. It offers three key features, eliminates rapid water pulsation,
ensures that the pump turns off at low battery voltages and in a run-dry situation when the water supply runs out.
This (patent applied for), Intelligent Control is achieved by a pressure switch turning on the pump when the pressure
drops to a low level and the microprocessor turning off the pump at programmed current levels, which are set during
the “one time” calibration process. This calibration process may have to be repeated if the pump is replaced.
Additionally “soft” start/stop control is used to control the pump motor.
To the Fitter:
Check that the product is suitable for the intended application, follow these installation instructions and ensure all
relevant personnel read the points listed below. Also ensure that these operating instructions are passed on to the
end user.
To the User:
Please read the following carefully before installation
•
Removes the need for adjustment of the pressure switch, and removes the requirement to have a surge
damper or inline pressure switch in the system.
•
Watermaster® IC is pre-programmed and must initially be calibrated before use - see Section 6.
•
When the system has shut down due to running out of water, reset by turning the pump isolation switch off
and back on after refilling the tank.
