TPC-10A Automatic Pump Controller Instruction Manual

E. It is advisable to connect the unit outlet to the system by means of flexible hose.

A. The unit is equipped with a check valve to prevent the pipeline from losing pressure.

F. Safety valve preventing water emission in case of diaphram break.

DO NOT TOUCH

B. No taps can be installed between the pump and the unit.

G. It is imperative to install the unit with the arrows in the upward position.

C. Pumps Pressure. The unit is pre-set by the manufacturer at a restarting pressure of 2.2 Bar. The pressure produced by the pump must be normally 0.8 Bar higher than the pre-set pressure.

H. The unit can be installed directly on the pump or between the pump and the first tap.

D. Before starting the unit, check the suction and ensure that the pump is primed.

• Voltage failure
• Pump jammed
• Electric cables inverted (Line/motor)

• The electronic card is broken
• The flow detector is blocked in the upper position
• The reset button is blocked
• The pump does not provide sufficient pressure

• The electronic card is broken
• the pump does not provide sufficient pressure

• The electronic card is broken
• The pump provides a pressure which is lower that the restarting pressure

• Water failure
• Suction problems

Starting

When the unit is connected to the electrical network, the green led "Power On" lights up and the yellow led "On" (pump in operation) indicated that the pump has been started. The pump continues to operate for a few seconds enablein the system to fill in the pipes and to reach the required pressure.
If this lapse is insufficient, the red led "Failure" lights up. In this event, keep the "Restart" button pressed and wait, with a tap opened until the red led is off.
Once you release the button and close tha tap, the unit stops the pump at its maximum pressure.

Functioning

With the starting operation archived, the unit is programmed to perform all the pump control operations automatically.
When particular operational breakdown occurs, such as water failure, obstruction of the suction pipe etc., the unit recognises the breakdown and the red led "Failure" lights up. At the same time a stop signal is sent to the pump to prevent damage caused by its working in the absence of water. Rectification of the failures that have caused the blockage allows the system to be restarted by pressung the "Restart" button.
