primary load draw is the pump and the most likely component to
trip the supply circuit breaker. With two circuits, if the pump circuit
tripped, power would be available to the controls and will notify the
homeowner of the problem.
Why does my control panel read the EVENTs once a minute?
If the Log Status in the panel is set to Y (yes), then it will record
every event once per minute. This will cause the 4000 event to
fill-up quickly in the panel. The Log Status may be set to N (no).
To change this using the MARC, go to Mode settings and press
enter. In the first screen named Log Status, if you press enter the
Log Status can be changed to N (no).
Why does my Transducer always read a 00.0” level?
In some cases the Transducer or circuit board may need to be
replaced. Check all connections. Test any component before
installing it. Checking a transducer with a bucket of water is an
easy way to see if the new transducer solved the problem.
Why does the Transducer read a constant level, (ex: 1.5- 6.5”)
even though the pump is running?
The Transducer wiring to the circuit board is not in the proper
sequence. Make sure the input wires are RED (RD), BLUE (BL),
and BLACK (BK) from left to right on the wire terminal strip
attached to the circuit board.
How do you setup for a Redundant off Float?
The best way to use a redundant off is to wire a load rated float
switch in line with the power in the pump vault. Secondly, many
pump companies supply a “piggy back float” option.
How do I wire a panel for 230/240 Volt installations?
The control side of the panel must only be wired for 120 volt
installation. For the pump(s) power supply (Line side),
using 3-wire, connect the Red wire to the Neutral or Pump L1
terminal block and the Black wire to the Pump L2 terminal block.
The White neutral wire can be cut back.
What should I use to plug the conduit to prevent sewer gases
from entering the enclosure?
There is a variety of conduit sealing compounds available, but we
recommend, Chico SpeedSeal Compound, as it will quickly harden
to a dense, strong mass and is UL Listed and cUL Listed.
Can you run the same Transducer wire in the conduit for the
pump supply?
The Transducer wire can be run thru the same conduit as the
pump power supply without interference. However, the
Transducer is a low voltage wire and in some jurisdictions it is
not allowed to run both High/Low voltages in the same conduit.
Check with both regional and State Regulations first.
Can I setup the IPC panel with a Remote Alarm?
Yes, a remote alarm can be purchased as an option with all
Aquaworx IPC panels. The remote alarm will provide the same
alarm sequence as the alarms on the main enclosure. The remote
alarm can be located up to 2000’ away from the main control box.
Contact customer service to purchase.
What is the difference between DOSE, ADOSE & BDOSE in the
Event log?
Dose = A recorded standard Dose from pump A.
ADose = A recorded Autoclear Dose.
BDose = A recorded Dose from pump B.
Can the panel be setup using two transducers?
Yes, using a IPC Sand filter panel specifically for installations that
require two separate pump systems each needing a separate
transducer for each pump. (Product ID number: IPC-DSF)
When I set the panel up to run both pumps what will happen?
This setting is designed to run both pump A and pump B during a
Veto level. This setting is used in conjunction with a Duplex panel
to pump the tank down faster. This should only be used if the
pumps are small and both pumps can run on one circuit or if it is a
specialty panel setup for individual circuits for each pump.
Can I put a heater unit inside the control panel?
Yes, Aquaworx offers a heater unit that can be easily setup in an
existing or new IPC panel. Contact customer service for more
information.
What is the battery on the circuit board, and/or will I lose my
events if the power goes out?
Its purpose is to keep the clock running, which will allow the data
logging to record when the power goes out and for how long the
power was off. The battery can last up to five years without a
replacement but, it is recommend that it be change every year.
If the battery is lost and the power goes out all data and all
settings are retained and will function once power is restored,
however, the date and time will re-set to 00.
What is a Varistor?
A varistor is a variable resistor used to protect excessive current in
a circuit. Our varistor is connected between the incoming line and
neutral. This 130V varistor serves as over voltage/surge protection
for the controller.
How do I setup the panel to handle a Sand filter application?
Using the MARC controller, under the Mode settings, the Run Both
/ SFI (Sand Filter Interface) menu will need to be set to Y (yes). This
will not allow Pump A to initiate if pump B has a high level alarm.
The MARC unit is not recording events from my SD card?
If the MARC screen is going blank during the download, then it is
probably receiving too much current from the SD card. This may
be caused by too much data on the card, or too much memory
on the card. We recommend a 1 Gigabit maximum SD card with
dedicated use for the MARC.
How do I wire a Transducer to the panel for a Sand filter
application?
Follow the instructions provided with the panel. If the
instructions are lost we can email you, or download from our
