7a. Operation summary and commissioning

 

 

 

Ensure all electrical connections are joined correctly and there are no bare wires. 

 

Ensure any output valves fitted to the system are open. 

 

Check that the pump is completely immersed, 

 

Check the DC input isolator is switched on. 

The 

POWER AC

 or 

POWER DC

 LED will illuminate when there is energy available. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Select the mode of operation: Auto, AC or DC 

(upper blue button) 

The 

AUTO

AC

 or 

DC

 LED will illuminate to indicate the selected power mode  

In auto mode, the controller will select the power source to run the pump depending on 
input signals. Bias is always DC power source.  

When the system is using AC power, the AC led light pulses in 10 sec intervals  
When the system is using DC power, the DC led light pulses in 10 sec intervals 

 

Note – When switching between modes, the motor needs to dissipate the energy stored 
within the internal capacitors. This process takes 2 minutes. Repeated switching between 
modes restarts the dissipation cycle, causing extended delays before the pump will run. 

 

Press ON/OFF button to commence operation 

(lower red button) 

The 

PUMP ON

 LED will illuminate.  

The controller will  assess  the available energy. If the minimum threshold is met the 

controller display will count down from 120 (seconds)  to dissipate any internal stored 
energy.

 

This process cannot be sped up. 

The controller will give a quiet click at the end of the countdown cycle and 16 seconds 
later the motor will attempt to run.  

As the motor starts, the display will indicate the energy the motor is consuming.
