INTRODUCTION
SWORDFISH + Pump Controller
The SWORDFISH + pump control system is a fully integrated pump controller for single
or multiple pumps required to operate via either single, multi level control or switched
inputs.
SWORDFISH + is suitable for up to 6 pumps of any type plus a jockey pump. The unique
electronic - hydraulic control allows each pump to operate at the maximum performance
level.
Easy access menu items and in-built pump and system protection allows simple
adjustment for any pump application.
SWORDFISH + also offers a full complement of telemetry outputs for simple integration
into central control applications.
Swordfish+ Level control is suitable for both Tank Fill & Tank Empty applications
therefore some logic will reverse in this manual pending upon the intended use.
The SWORDFISH + Pump Control system is part of the Techsys Pump Control range.
Pump Controllers are available in a range of options to suit particular applications and
user requirements.
Additional manuals available for:-
•Temperature control
•Pressure control
•Flow control
•Vacuum

QUICKSTART
The following procedures are the minimum
required to start and operate the
SWORDFISH +. If you are concerned
regarding the Commissioning of the unit
please read the complete manual or call
your closest Techsys Corporation
representative.
The following test confirms the operational
directions of all pumps in both Manual and
Automatic Modes
ROTATION CHECK
This is a most important procedure and should be completed prior to any other
commissioning procedure.
Only Qualified Personnel should be allowed to complete this procedure as there is
High Voltage wiring within the switchboard.
1. Switch OFF all motor circuit breakers in the cabinet.
2. Turn ON power to Sowrdfish controller.
3. Make sure all Pump Mode indicators are OFF. If not press the “P” key to turn
pump off (All pumps should be off)
4. Adjust Overloads to to suit motor ratings. Switch ON all circuit breakers in the
cabinet.
5. Press “P1” to turn on Pump 1. The Running indicator will light up.
(If the message “ Key Pad Locked” appears, scroll up to the Access Code using the up key
and input the number 21)
Check Rotation against the pump manufacturer’s direction arrow. After
checking turn Pump1 to OFF by pressing “P1” again.
6. Check the balance of the pumps for direction as descibed above.
If any of the other pumps have the wrong direction of rotation change two of
the wires on the wiring connected to the motor in question.
•Re-check direction
7. Rotation check complete.

Rotation
*****IMPORTANT*****
Failure to follow this procedure will void
Warranty and cause failure of the pump
station
The rotation of each pump is checked prior to shipment on packaged units, however it is
essential to check the rotation of each pump. To do this select MANUAL for each pump
individually and check the rotation. If the rotation is not correct swap two of the phases
coming into the main isolation switch to reverse the rotation.
Note:- any wiring changes done within the switchboard should be done with the approval
of the service agent and by qualified personnel only.
In models with phase failure relays the mains phase orientation must be set to the correct
orientation. If only one light (either green or red) is showing then swap any two wires on
the main isolation switch. This orientates the main's power to the correct rotation.

System Operation
The operating constraints for the system are detailed below.
Single Level Mode
When the system level rises above the System Cut In Level the controller will start the
first pump. If one pump cannot satisfy the level requirement another pump will start after
the IN delay timer has timed out (Single Level Mode) and the system level remains above
the Cut Out level. More pumps will be started until there are no further pumps available or
the system level drops below the Cut Out Level. If at any time the level drops below the
Cut Out Level then the OUT delay timer (Single Level Mode) is started and when it times
out a pump will be turned off (Providing the minimum run time for that pump has also
timed out). Multilevel Mode utilises individual cut in / out level for each pump.

SYSTEM STATUS
System Level number display 0 - 9999
Flow Rate /Min number display 0 - 9999
System Level
The System Level is the direct measurement of the
level in the tank / sump of the system. It is read from
the level transducer and is displayed
on the Level Screen on the front of the switchboard.
This is the default display screen. It will display appropriate messages describing current
conditions. These include in order of priority: Emergency Stop, Hi Level Alarm, Lo Level
Shutdown, Fault, Pause Activated, etc.
After 25 minutes from the last key press the SWORDFISH + will revert to this screen
automatically.
Flow Rate
The SWORDFISH + can operate on a calculated flow
rate.
The Calculated flow rate uses information that is input into the Pump Flow rate screen to
provide an estimation of the flow rate at any time. This calculation automatically
compensates for the number of pumps operating - it is useful in determining the system
capacity. This is a calculated flow and must be treated as such. The time base for this
flow is in flow per MINUTES and is not adjustable.

In the event of a new fault, which has been automatically
reset, the default screen will display the message “New
Fault”. Go to the FAULT HISTORY to view this fault. Faults
that are active will remain live on the screen until the ENTER Key is pressed to clear the
fault.
Faults will appear in the Fault sub menu in the following
format with the most recent fault being Fault 1.
Note: The FAULT HISTORY menu is cleared when the
system is first powered up.
“Pump 1 - 6 Shutdown” signifies that the corresponding
“Pump protect 1-6” input has been activated for the period of the input delay time.
“Auto Reboot” denotes that the SWORDFISH + has automatically restarted due to an
internal reset, whereas “Power Failure” records that the SWORDFISH + has recovered
from a power supply disconnection. A very short disconnection of power will record a
“Power Glitch” message, typically around 0.1seconds.
The FAULT HISTORY menu is always visible regardless of whether the Access Code is
correct.
To reset the complete FAULT HISTORY by pressing ENTER then DOWN and then
ENTER again when at Fault 1. Individual Faults can be reset by completing the same
action while displaying the Fault screen to be reset.

Hours Run Pump 1-6
Each pump has an hour run meter attached to record the
actual run time for each pump. The hour log will
accumulate all of the operation time for each pump in both
AUTOMATIC and MANUAL modes.
To reset the time press ENTER then DOWN and then ENTER again.
Pump 1-6 Starts
The SWORDFISH + registers the number of starts that
each pump accumulates to assist in the tuning of the
system. This number can assist in the selection of the Cut In and Cut Out levels and the
run time settings. The starts do not increment when selected in MANUAL as this is
considered to be an override function.
To reset press ENTER then DOWN and then ENTER again.
Starts Last Hour
This registers the numbers of starts that the TOTAL
SYSTEM had over the past hour. This is the accumulation
of all of the Starts for all of the pumps and is designed to
assist in trouble shooting. The new number is accumulated
over a 10-min period and is updated at 10-minute intervals. To get a true hourly reading
the system must have been running for at least 1 hour. After the first hour the last 6
previous 10-minute readings are added together to get the Starts last hour reading.
To reset press ENTER then DOWN and then ENTER again.

Analogue Input
This screen displays the actual Analogue Input reading in
percentage.
It shows the actual possible full scale reading and is not
zeroed or scaled to level. It is used to determine input functionality.
Analogue Output
This screen displays the actual Analogue Output reading
in percentage. This output mimics the Analogue 1 Input
and can be re-scaled in the configuration settings.
Digital Input State
This screen displays the state of the Digital inputs
X = energized
- = de-energized
See INPUTS for configurable options for this item.
Digital Output State
This screen displays the state of the Digital outputs
X = energized

See OUTPUTS for configurable options for this item.
Curr & Max Retry
The number under "Curr" is the current number of times
the main processor has not been able to communicate
with the analogue system. If it is not at Zero it indicates
that the analogue system has been subject to noise and
may have had to restart itself. If this number continues to
increment up to 20, then resets to 0, and continues incrementing
again it indicates a major malfunction with the analogue system
The number under "Max Retry" is the maximum number of times the
main processor has not been able to communicate with the analogue
circuitry. If it is at 20 there may have been a major disruption in the
analogue system and was unable to restart itself and the main
processor has more than likely forced it to restart.
Temperature
Displayed is the current temperature in degrees C,
read via the temperature sensor on the circuit board.
