The Grundfos DPC 1-3 is a Digital Pump Controller designed for three-phase pumps with a rated output power ranging from 1.5 to 16 Amperes. This device is an easy-to-use, programmable solution for controlling pumps in various water and wastewater applications. It is suitable for water transfer, tank filling, tank emptying, and pressure boosting in hydro-pneumatic systems, making it an ideal choice for residential, industrial, and institutional segments where water and energy conservation are crucial.
The DPC 1-3 serves as a comprehensive control and protection unit for pumps. It can operate in two main modes: Manual and Auto. In Manual mode, the user directly starts and stops the pump using the START and STOP keys. In Auto mode, the pump's operation is governed by signals from sensors, float switches, or pressure switches, depending on the application. The controller offers various control characteristics, including level control with probes for clear water or with floats, and pressure control with a pressure switch.
The DPC 1-3 boasts a range of features designed to enhance usability and pump protection:
The DPC 1-3 incorporates several protection features to ensure pump longevity and safe operation:
It is crucial to follow all safety instructions during installation and operation to prevent personal injury or damage to the equipment. Before any installation or maintenance, the controller must be disconnected from the power supply. The cover should not be opened while the pump is running, and no foreign objects should be inserted into the controller. All electrical connections must be performed by skilled and qualified personnel. AC power should never be connected to the output U,V,W terminals. The motor, controller, and power specifications must always match. The manufacturer is not liable for malfunctions resulting from incorrect installation, damage, modification, or operation outside the specified working range.
