CAUTION – To avoid multiple starts of
the pump in twilight conditions, the Sun
Sensor module must be connected and
congured for all PSk3 pump systems.
Operating without a Sun Sensor module
can lead to increased wear or damage to
the pump. Such damage is excluded from
the warranty.
CAUTION – Never let the pump run
dry. Dry running will damage the pump
and void the warranty. LORENTZ requires
a dry run protection for every pump
system.

7.2 Controller Placement
The PSk3 controller is rated for outdoor use with an
ingress protection rating of IP66. This means that
inside electronics are protected against dust and
strong water splashes when properly installed. Keep
the controller cover sealed all times as the inside
electronics are sensitive to water, moisture, dust or
animals.
Electronic devices are most reliable when they are
protected from heat. Mount the controller where
it is shaded from the midday sun. An ideal location
is in permanent shade. If no shade is available, cut
a piece of sheet metal and bolt it behind the top of
the controller. Bend it over the controller to provide
shade. Make sure that the fan of the PSk3 is not
covered and forced cooling it possible.
This is especially important in extremely hot
locations. Extreme heat may trigger a thermal
function in the controller causing it to reduce the
power consumption or turn it o.
Place the controller close to the pump to keep the
motor cable short.
If the installation is exposed to lightning, we
recommend using a surge protector and put it inside
the controller.
