Pump Set Parameters
Allocated Output
Each pump can be connected on any station output in the Touch controller units. Each allocated
output can be a station on any Remote Unit, or it can be an output (OUT 1 to OUT 4) on the control
panel. Allocated outputs do not have to be on the same Remote Unit or Expansion Module.
Priority
Pump priority can be used to change the running order of each of the pumps.
Capacity
If a Flow Meter is allocated to the pump set the capacity is used to determine which pumps should be
started, based on the measured flow.
Pump On Delay
The Pump On Delay can be used to stop pumps starting for a set period of time after a program has
started.
Inter Pump Delay
The Inter Pump Delay can be used to ramp up the pump set from idle to full pump operation. For
example, where no Flow Meter is allocated, all enabled pumps would normally start together. A delay
between pump starts may reduce the electrical power required at pump start, and prevent hydraulic
shock to the system water pipes.
Pump Off Delay
The Pump Off Delay can be used to keep pumps running for a set period of time after a program has
stopped. For example, this may be required to maintain pressure in the system until all valves have
closed.
VFD Pumps
If a VFD pump is utilised, it must be entered as pump 1. If enabled, a VFD pump is always started
first.
Runtime Levelling
Runtime Levelling allows multiple pumps to be cycled so that the total run time for each pump can be
approximately the same. The pump with the lowest total run time is selected before others. Runtime
levelling helps to maintain consistent wear between pumps and can assist in scheduling preventative
maintenance for the pump set.
Pump Priority
Pump priority can be used to change the running order of each pump.
Allocated Flow Meter
If required, a pump set can automatically switch on and off pumps according to a measured flow. If
no Flow Meter is allocated, all enabled pumps will operate according to the pump set parameters.
The allocated Flow Meter can be either a Flow Meter or an Aggregate Flow Meter.
