INTRODUCTION
FiretrolJockeyPumpControllersareintendedforusewithfirepumpsystems.Theyareusedfor
pressuremaintenanceinfirepumpinstallationstopreventunnecessarycyclingofthemainfire
pump.
TheyarelistedbyUnderwriters’Laboratories,Inc.,inaccordancewithUL508A,Standardfor
IndustrialControllers.Theyarebuilttomeetorexceedtherequirementsoftheapprovingauthor-
itiesaswellasNEMAandthelatesteditionNFPA70NationalElectricalCode.
TheyalsocomplywiththerequirementsoftheElectromagneticCompatibility(EMC)Directive
2014/30/EU,theLowVoltageDirective(LVD)2014/35/EU,theElectromagneticCompatibility
Regulations(2016No.1091)andTheElectricalEquipment(Safety)Regulations(2016No.1101).
Theseinstructionsareintendedtoassistintheunderstandingoftheinstallationandoperationof
thesecontrollers.Readtheinstructionsthoroughlypriortoconnectingoroperatingthecontroller.

INSTALLATION
Seismic
JockeyPumpcontrollersareoptionallyseismicapprovedandhasbeentestedinaccordancewith
theICC-ESAC156,IBC2015&CBC2013standards.Properinstallation,anchoringandmount-
ingisrequiredtovalidatethiscompliancereport.Refertothismanualanddrawingstodetermine
theseismicmountingrequirementsandlocationofthecenterofgravity(youmayneedtocontact
factory).Theequipmentmanufacturerisnotresponsibleforthespecificationandperformanceof
anchoragesystems.Thestructuralengineerofrecordontheprojectshallberesponsiblefor
anchoragedetails.Theequipmentinstallationcontractorshallberesponsibleforensuringthe
requirementsspecifiedbythestructuralengineerofrecordaresatisfied.Ifdetailedseismicinstall-
ationcalculationsarerequired,pleasecontactthemanufacturerfortheperformanceofthiswork.
Environment
JockeyPumpcontrollersareintendedtobeinstalledinlocationswhereambienttemperaturesare
within4°Cand40°Candtherelativehumidityiscontrolledbetween5%and80%.Optionally,the
controllercanhaveanextendedtemperatureofupto55°Candaslowas-5°C,providedthatthe
controllerandthepressurewaterpipesareheatedtopreventwaterfreezinganddamagingthe
electronicandthepipingsystem.
Theyareintendedforpollutiondegree3andshallbeinstalledatanaltitudeofnomorethan2000
meters.Forabnormalinstallationenvironment,consultfactory.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
JockeyPumpcontrollershavebeentestedforthemoststringentconditionsforemissions(Envir-
onmentB)andimmunity(EnvironmentA),hencecontrollerscanbeinstalledineitherenvir-
onment.Allcontrollersvariantssharethesameelectronicsandcomplytothosecriteriawithout
requiringadditionalmeasures.
Handling
TheweightofeachJockeyPumpcontrollerisindicatedonthepackinglabel.Lightweightcon-
trollersdonotrequirespecialhandlinginstructions,whileheavycontrollersareequippedwithlift-
ingmeansandshouldbehandledfollowingtheguidelinesspecifiedinFiretrol'sdocument"Large
EnclosureSafeHandlingRequirements_PN12162021".
Mounting
Consult the appropriate job plans to determine the controller mounting location.
Tools and materials required:
1. Assortmentofcommonhandtoolsofthetypeusedtoserviceelectromechanicalequip-
ment.
2. Drillfordrillingwallanchorholes.
3. Hole(conduit)punch.

V2023.07 9
4. Handlevel.
5. Tapemeasure.
6. Fouranchorswithboltsandwashers,perenclosure.
Procedure
Refer to the controller dimension drawing for necessary mounting dimensions.
Thecontrolleriswallmountedbyusingatleastfour(4)wallanchors,2anchorsforthetopmount-
ingbracketsand2anchorsforthebottommountingbrackets.Thebracketsaredimensionallyon
thesamecenterlineforeaseinmounting.Thereshouldbeaclearanceofatleast6inchesaround
thecontrollertoallowproperaircirculationaroundtheequipment.
1. Usingeitherthedimensionprintorbymeasuringthedistancebetweenthecenterlinesof
thelowerbracketslots,transcribethisdimensionontothewall.Note:Thebottomedgeof
theenclosureshouldbeaminimumof12”(305mm.)fromthefloorincasefloodingofthe
pumproomoccurs.
2. Drillandputanchorsintothewallforthelowermountingbrackets.
3. Markonthewall,thelocationoftheholesintheuppermountingbrackets.
4. Drillandputanchorsintowallfortheuppermountingbrackets.
5. Installboltsandwashersinloweranchors.
6. Alignholesinuppermountingbracketsandinstallboltsandwashersinanchors.
7. Shimanchorsasnecessarytoensurerearofenclosureisverticallevelandenclosureisnot
stressed.
8. Tightenallanchorbolts.
9. Checktobesureenclosuredooropenandclosesfreelyandthatenclosureislevel.
Making System Pressure Connections
Thecontrollerrequiresone(1)“SystemPressure”connectionfromthesystempipingtothe
enclosure.Theconnectionfitting,1/2”NPTmaleport,isprovidedonthebottom,externalsideof
theenclosureforthispurpose.RefertoNFPA20(orPublicationGF100-30)forcorrectfieldpiping
procedureofthesensinglinebetweenthepumpingsystemandthecontroller.
Making Electrical Connections
Important Precautions
Alicensedelectricianmustsupervisetheelectricalconnections.Thedimensiondrawingsshow
theareasuitableforincomingpowerandmotorconnections.Nootherlocationshallbeused.Only
watertighthubfittingsshallbeusedwhenenteringthecabinettopreservetheNEMAorIPrating
ofthecabinet.
The installer is responsible for adequate protection of the Jockey Pump controller
components against metallic debris or drilling chips. Failure to do so may cause
injuries to personnel, damage the controller and subsequently void warranty.

quency,FLAandHP.
3. Project'selectricalcontractormustsupplyallnecessarywiringforfieldconnectionsin
accordancewiththeNationalElectricalCode,localelectricalcodeandanyotherauthority
havingjurisdiction.
4. Refertotheappropriatefieldconnectiondrawingforwiringinformation.
Procedure
Allfieldconnections,remotealarmfunctionsandACwiringarebroughtintotheenclosurethrough
thetoporbottomconduitentrancesasindicatedonthedimensionaldrawing.
Donotplaceconduitentrancesonthesidesoftheenclosure.
1. Usingahole(conduit)punch,createaholeintheenclosureforthesizeconduitbeingused.
2. Installnecessaryconduit.
3. Pullallwiresnecessaryforfieldconnections,remotealarmfunctions,ACpowerandall
otheroptionalfeatures.Bringenoughwireinsidetheenclosuretomakeupconnectionsto
theappropriateline,loadandcontrolterminalblockpoints.Besuretoconsulttheappro-
priatefieldconnectiondiagramincludedwiththemanual.Forproperwiresizing,refertothe
NationalElectricalCode,NFPA70.
4. Makeallfieldconnectionstotheremotealarmfunctionsandanyotheroptionalfeatures.
5. Connectmotortocontrollerloadterminals.
6. FindnameplateonJockeyPumpmotorandmakenoteofitsfullloadamprating.Veritythe
overloadwithinthecontrollerissetforthatnumberofamps.
7. VerifyAClinevoltage,phaseandfrequencywiththecontrollerdataplateontheenclosure
doorpriortoconnecting.
8. ConnectACpower.
9. Checktoseethatallconnectionsarebothcorrectlywired(inaccordancewiththefieldcon-
nectiondiagram)andtight.
