FLOAT SWITCH INPUT
- Theoatswitchinputisa15V,10mAsignal.
PRESSURE SWITCH INPUT
- The pressure switch input is a 15V, 10mA signal
- If the system is running on tank water and the
Pressure Switch input is closed then the pump output
 willbeswitchedoff.Thepumpoutputwillbeswitched
 backonwhenthePressureSwitchinputopens.
OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW continued
OPERATION: PUMP / SOLENOID VALVE CONTROL
- When the Float input is closed the power to the pump
will be switched on and the solenoid valve will be
 closed.Thesystemisnowrunningontankwaterand
 theTankWaterLEDwilllight.
- When the Float input is open the power to the pump
 willbeswitchedoffandthevalvewillbeopened.The
system is now running on mains water and the Mains
 WaterLEDwilllight.
OPERATION: SOLENOID SWITCHING
- The solenoid valve will be given two pulses each time
 itswitches.Thiswillensurethatithasoperated
 correctly.
OPERATION: TEST BUTTON
- When the test button is held in for approx 2s, the
solenoid valve will temporarily change state and after
 approx2swillrevertbacktoitsoriginalstate.Ifthe
pump is on at the time the test button is pressed it will
 beswitchedoffwhenchangingstate.
OPERATION: POWER FAILURE
- In the event of power failure the solenoid valve will
 open.
INSTALLATION GUIDE
WARNING: Allelectricalconnectionsmustbecarriedoutbyasuitablyqualiedandregisteredelectrician.
CONTROLLER MOUNTING:
1 Enclosure must be mounted in a vertical position,
 xedtoeitherawallorframe,ensuringcable
entry points are located on the under side of the
enclosure and that all penetrations made, are
weather proof, and do not compromise the IP
 ratingoftheenclosure.
FLOAT SWITCH SETUP:
1 Drilla16mmholeinroofoftank.InstallCable
Gland with dome nut on the outside of the tank
 andsecurelocknutontheinsideofthetank.
2 Feed Float Switch cable through the gland
from the inside of the tank until in the correct
 position.
3 Allow ball of Float Switch to hang +/- 100mm
 aboveoutletofthetank.Tightendomenuton
 CableGlandtosecurecable.
4 Connect Float Switch to corresponding connectors
on the PCB (see Figure 1).
VALVE SETUP:
1 Valve must be installed in accordance with appropriate
 PlumbingIndustryCodeofPractice.Ensuredirectionof
 ow‘’isnoted.
2 Ensuremanualoverrideleverissetto‘closed’position.
Flow control adjustment (on top of Valve) should be set
 fullyopen(anti-clockwise).
3 Connect Valve to corresponding connectors on the PCB
(see Figure 1).
4 Should the Valve be ‘Closed’ when in fact it should be
 ‘Open’,reversewiresonPCBconnection(Polarity).
PUMP CONNECTION:
1 Connect Pump/Pressure Controller to appropriate
‘Pump’ terminals on PCB (8amp Max) (see Figure 1).
POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION:
1 Connect Power Supply (from ‘RCD’ Protected circuit)
to appropriate ‘Supply’ terminals on PCB (see Figure 1).
