CAUTION
Do not under any circumstances open the controller or motor. Levitronix®does not
assume responsibility for any damage, which occurs under such circumstances.
CAUTION
High magnetic field strength of pump impeller.
The pump system contains a rotor magnet with high field strength. This may alter
or damage the calibration of sensitive electronic devices and measuring
instruments in the immediate surroundings. Keep at a safe distance from the rotor,
computers, monitors and all magnetic data storage media (e.g. disks, credit cards,
audio, video tapes etc.)
!
WARNING
Hazardous voltage may be present.
The controller must be grounded and placed in a spill protected electrical cabinet.
Do not under any circumstances open the powered controller.
Always isolate the electrical power supply before making or changing connections
to the unit. To remove the power it is recommended to use an isolating device.
Hazardous voltage is present until 20 sec after switch off. Do not handle the
controller during this time.
!
WARNING
High magnetic field strength of pump impeller.
The pump system contains a rotor magnet with high field strength. Pace maker
may be influenced and magnetic forces may lead to contusions. Keep distance to
pace makers and handle impeller with care.

3.2 AC Supply and Power Consumption
3.2.1 Power Consumption
Figure 10: Electrical power consumption
(Controller LPC-2000.1with pump-head LPP-2000.16)
3.2.2 AC Input Voltage and Grid Currents
The input grid currents depend on the operational point and the input voltage. As shown in Table 7 maximum
input grid currents are achieved at highest power and lowest voltage. Note that the grid currents also depend
on the impedance of the grid, therefore below values are only typical values.

Continuous speed and
pressure with maximum
active power.
Table 7: Voltage and grid current specifications
Note 1: See Figure 18 for visualization of delta and star voltages.
Note 2: Values depend on impedance of grid.
3.2.3 Inrush Current
Various situations have to be considered for the inrush current. The controller has integrated inrush current
limiters, which limit the current during switch-on of the AC power. However, these limiters are not active if the
controller is not completely discharged Table 7 shows the inrush currents during these situations. It has to be
emphasized that these are absolute worst case currents measured with a rigid mains supply at highest input
voltage. In reality these inrush currents might be much smaller.

Note 1: Worst case AC input voltage of 240 VAC +10%, measured with a line impedance of 47 .
3.2.4 Earth Leakage Current
Earth leakage currents have been measured under worst case situation and are  5 mA.
3.2.5 Recommendations for Circuit Breaker Design
The controller contains fuses in all power input lines, which are configured for 20 A (time lag T).
For the selection of external breakers above considerations about AC voltage, grid currents, inrush current
and earth leakage current have to be considered. It is recommended to test the reliability and sensitivity of
the selected breakers with the pump system in the context of the tool, where it is operated.
Circuit breaker types full-filling above considerations have following basic specifications:
- 16 A and D or K tripping characteristics
Note: The Short Circuit Current Rating (SCCR) is 5 kA (according to UL508A).
3.3 Temperature Monitoring
To avoid overheating of the system, the controller and motor temperatures are monitored. If the controller
temperature exceeds 70°C (158°F) or the motor temperature 90°C (194°F) for a duration of more than 10
minutes, the system goes into an error state and the pump stops. At 80°C (176 F) controller temperature or
100°C (212°F) motor temperature, the system stops immediately.

3.4 Thermal Management
3.4.1 Motor Temperature
The motor temperature depends on the ambient and liquid temperature, as well as on the hydraulic
operation point and the characteristics (viscosity and density) of the liquid. Figure 13 illustrates the
temperature characteristics for aqueous liquids at room temperature. For higher liquid temperatures and
hydraulic operating points active cooling is recommended for example with the Air Cooling Module ACM-4.2
(see Figure 14).

All presented thermal data are typical values, which are partly based on measurements and partly on
interpolations with a simplified thermal model and are therefore only guideline values and are suitable for a
first layout of the basic thermal concept. It is recommended to check the thermal values with the motor
placed on the final location and under worst case performance conditions of the application.
In order to account for thermal variations (like ambient temperature, closed chemical cabinets or corners
without ventilations) and to not significantly reduce the MTBF of the motor it is recommended to keep about
20 °C safety distance to the absolute thermal limit of the motor (90 °C) when designing and testing the
thermal concept of the pump system.

3.4.2 Controller Temperature
Depending on the ambient temperature and the placement of the controller additional cooling may be
required (see Figure 15). To improve cooling of the controller, place the device into a moving air stream. If
the controller is mounted in a compact area or adjacent to additional heat sources (e.g. a 2nd controller)
ensure that there is sufficient ventilation.

The above curves are measurements of the controller temperature at 25°C ambient. Equation (Eq. 2) shows
how to calculate the controller temperature for at other ambient temperatures based on this curve.

3.5 Hydraulic Circuit Design
Following general design rules for the hydraulic circuit shall be considered for a robust operation of the pump
system and optimum priming behavior:
1. The general rule for optimum priming behavior is to minimize the pressure drop in the inlet
circuit and avoid negative pressure at the inlet of the pump head.
2. Minimize tubing length at the inlet of the pump head and maximize the ID (not smaller than the
pump head inlet ID of 22.3 mm is recommended). This reduces the pressure drop and the
tendency of cavitation.
3. Avoid any restrictions, valves, elbows, bended tubing and sharp edges at the inlet circuit of the
pump head, which potentially causes cavitation resulting in gas bubble collection in the pump
head with the danger of priming loss.
4. Place the pump at the lowest point of the hydraulic circuit. Optimum is as much as possible
below a tank or reservoir. This optimizes priming behavior and removal of gas bubbles.
5. Keep the liquid level in the reservoir tank or bag as high as possible, which increases the inlet
pressure of the pump head and minimized heat up of the liquid.
6. In general the pump system placement and circuit shall be designed in a way that gas bubbles
can leave the pump housing and that the pump head remains primed.
7. To minimize heat up of the liquid the overall pressure drop in the hydraulic circuit shall be
reduced as much as possible.
8. It shall be avoided to pump longer times against a closed valve, which can cause heat-up of the
liquid.
9. At higher liquid temperature above rules become more important due to higher cavitation
tendency of the liquid.
10. Load and stress at the inlet and outlet by heavy tubing and inexact mounting alignment shall be
avoided (see Figure 16) as this can cause leakage issues due to distortion of the plastic pump
housing.
Figure 16: Avoidance of stress forces and torques at the inlet and outlet of the pump head
Contact the Levitronix®Technical Service department (see Section 7) for more detailed considerations and
support on the design of the hydraulic circuit.

WARNING
Overheating of the Motor Power and Extension Power Cable
To prevent an overheating of the motor power and extension power
cables, do not roll-up or install several motor power cables in the same
cable channel. This is has especially to be considered when long motor
power cables are used.
▪The motor can be fixed with four screws on the motor feet (see Figure 6)
▪As an alternative the motor can be mounted with 12 screws on the back (see Figure 6)
▪The motor can be mounted in either the horizontal or vertical position
▪Minimum cable bending radius according Table 5 to shall be followed for the installation of the motor and
extension/adaptor cables
▪Each motor is identified with a unique serial number. This serial number consists of a series of 6 digits
were the 5th and the 6th digit representing the manufacturing year.
▪To prevent an overheating of > 90°C of the motor power cable in extension power cable, please don’t
roll-up or install several motor power cables in the same cable channel.
4.3 Mechanical Installation of the Controller
The controller can be mounted with the 2 DIN rail brackets on the housing (see Figure 8). If no forced air-cooling is used,
mount the controller in upright position and assure the minimum mounting clearance in Figure 21 to get sufficient heat
