1. CONTROLLER SPECIFICATIONS
DAYLIFF Pumpverter drives are high specification VSD's suitable for use in residential and
industrial applications. They are compact and versatile and can be installed in either
motor or wall mounted configuration. The inverter varies pump motor speed with demand
thus regulating pump output to a preset outlet pressure. Particular features include:
• Maintains constant system pressure when water demand changes by use of
pressure transducers
• Can work simultaneously with other units and control up to 6 pumps in cascade
sequence.
• Sleep mode when there is no water consumption for increased energy savings
• Provides complete pump protection against pump overload, low voltage, high
voltage, phase failure, electronics overheating and dry running (when using float
switch).
• Enclosure class: IP54
Pumpverter range of inverters are proven and dependable designs using the latest
technology to give exceptional levels of performance, economy and reliability.

Congratulations on selecting a Dayliff Pumpverter. It is manufactured
to the highest standards and if installed and operated correctly will
give many years of efcient and trouble free service. Careful reading
of this Installation Manual is therefore important, though should
there be any queries they should be referred to the equipment
supplier.

2. SYMBOLS AND WARNINGS
Do not dismantle the product as it may cause electric shock,
re hazard or personal injury.
WARNING
Do not open the cover during operation.
WARNING
Do not put wire, bar of metal, laments etc. into the controller
as it may cause a short circuit and/or electric shock.
WARNING
Do not splash water or other liquids on the controller.
WARNING
Never connect AC power to the output terminals.
CAUTION
Do not touch internal components of the control if they have
been exposed to static electricity.

The motor, controller and power specications should be
properly matched, otherwise it may cause abnormal
operation and even burn the device;
CAUTION
If the controller appears to have vibration, noise, heat or
peculiar smell during initial operation, cut off power
immediately and contact authorised Dayliff retailer.
CAUTION
Do not install the controller under direct sunlight or rain.
When moving the controller lift it by its base and not by the
panel, may cause the main unit to fall off which may resulting
in personal injury.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Install the controller on reproof material (such as metal) to
avoid re.
CAUTION
When powering off, ensure indicator light is completely
extinguished, so as to ensure the device is discharged
completely.
CAUTION
Before opening the controller, ensure that all power lines are
disconnected. Wait at least 5 minutes until DC Bus capacitors
discharge.

Circuit Breaker
It is necessary to connect a suitable circuit breaker between AC power supply and the
Pumpverter. The capacity of breaker should be 1.5~2 times the rated current of
controller.
AC Reactor (Optional)
In order to prevent the rectifier damage resulted from the large current, AC reactor
should be installed at the input side. It can also prevent rectifier from sudden variation of
power voltage or harmonic generated by phase-control load.
Input EMC Filter (Optional)
EMC filter can minimize the interference of the surrounding device which may be
disturbed by the cables when the controller is working.
Output EMC Filter (Optional)
EMC filter should be installed to minimize the current leakage caused by the cable and
minimize the radio noise caused by the cables between the controller and motor.
Output Reactor (for long motor cables)
When the distance between the Pumpverter and motor is more than 50m, the controller
may be tripped by over-current protection frequently because of the large current
leakage resulting from the parasitic capacitance with ground. In order to avoid the
damage of motor insulation, the output reactor should therefore be installed.

4.2 Operation Procedure
Power-on Initialization
When power is switched on the system initializes and LED displays controller model.
After the initialization is completed, the controller switches to stand-by mode.
Parameter Setting
Three levels of menu are available as below:
1. Primary Interface first-level function code
2. Second-level function code
3. Function code setting value third-level function code setting value
ŸPress <</SHIFT or >>/SHIFT to switch to display running/stop status
monitoring parameters.
ŸAt the primary interface, press PRG/ESC to enter the first-level menu then press
PRG/ESC to return to the primary interface.
ŸAt the first-level menu, press DATA/ENT to enter the second-level menu. Second-
level menu press PRG/ESC and DATA/ENT to return to first-level menu or enter
third-level menu.
ŸAt third-level menu, press both PRG/ESC and DATA/ENT to return to the second-
level menu the difference being by:
ŸPressing DATA/ENT the controller save the parameters in the controller
and returns to the second-level menu with shifting to the next function code
automatically.
ŸPressing PRG/ESC will return immediately to the second-level menu without
saving the parameters; and stay at the current function code.
Example 1: Change factory pressure setting 3.0 bar to 2.5 bar
Method 1: Enter parameter setting

Method 2: Direct setting at the primary interface
1. Press or at primary interface, the system will switch-over to display set pressure
2. Press or again, to increase or decrease set pressure.
3. After completing the pressure setting, press DATA/ENT to save the value.
4. During operation press <</SHIFT or >>/SHIFT to scroll through the parameters
in left or right order until there are only two upper lights on.
5. Read out the pressure value.
