CONTROL PANEL SULZER APC 1/2B 

 USER GUIDE 

Rev.13  (2018/08/30) 

 
 

3.2. 

SAFETY FACTORS 

It is very important to correctly connect the signals from temperature and humidity  sensors of 
each pump to monitor its  state. There are three free of potential contacts in the control panel: 

one alarm from each pump and alarm status to be reset on the controller. 

Remember  to  disconnect  and  lock  every  protection,  motor  circuit  breaker  and/or  earth  swith 
before any maintenance action.  

 

 
 

ALARM RESET 

Any new alarm can be reset individually by the controller user interface also available at the door of a 
button box with emergency you can reset all alarms at once. For security reasons pumping operation, 
the activation level alarm float, well signposted in the box and the display of PC 242, causes a safety 

reset all reset alarms that they had in PC 242, unlocked so that if the pumps automatically be blocked. 

 

 

LOW LEVEL ALARM 

If you use an APC box with analogue level sensor, and also shows the sump level in real time via the 
display in both graphical and numerical mode, PC 242 allows you to generate alarms activating level 

and potential free contact failure usually when they occur. If the active and the level drops for at least 
10s  of  the value  set  for low  level  alarm,  the  controller  will  alarm  with  the  text  "Low".  Usually  the  low 
level  alarm  pumps  only  used  for  filling  tanks  or  pumping  catchment,  so  that  by  default  the  APC  box 

comes  with  this  feature  disabled,  if  interested  activate  follow  the  user  manual  PC  242  and  /  or 
implementation guide APC 2B frame. 

 

HIGH LEVEL ALARM 

If you use an APC box with analogue level sensor, and also shows the sump level in real time via the 
display in both graphical and numerical mode, PC 242 allows you to generate alarms activating level 
and potential free contact failure usually when they occur. Reached or exceeded for at least 5s alarm 
level  set  to  high,  the  controller  generates  an  alarm  with  the  text  "high  level".  By  default  we  deliver 

pictures with a value for this alarm is adjusted according to the size of the pumping equipment which 
are manufactured, if you need to adjust to an optimum value for pumping well follow the user manual 
PC 242 and / or implementation guide APC 2B frame. 

 

 

HIGH LEVEL FLOAT ALARM 

 
Table  APC  has  a  signal  input  for  a  high  level  switch  to  activate  the  semiautomatic control  system to 

generate alarm level (either for high level alarm drain wells). When the signal is received, the controller 
indicates  the  alarm  on  the  operator  panel  with  the  text  "high  float"  and  activate  the  floating  contact 
general  fault.  You must  install  this  buoy  above  the  height  adjusted  to  high  level  alarm,  becoming  an 

extra-alarm  high  level  above  that  of  said  buoy  and  allowing  the  system  to  generate  an  alarm  before 
reaching  semiautomatic  control  act.  For  safety  is  done  automatically  reset  all  alarms  reset  brought 
forward in PC 242 when activating the alarm float.
