Controllers for submersible well pump

Series QPC Quadraplex Pump Controller is used where four pumps are required to alternate to provide equal run time on each. Alternating loads allows for equal wear on all pumps lengthening their operation life. The Series QPC has five inputs allowing the four outputs to operate properly even if one of the inputs fails to open or close. Four LED indicators show the load that is energized by the SPST output contacts. The QPC is available in two sequence configurations: sequence-on-simultaneous-off (SOSO) and first-on-first-off (FOFO). In the SOSO sequence, an additional load is energized each time a higher level switch is activated, and all loads are de-energized simultaneously when the lowest level switch deactivates. In the FOFO sequence, the loads are energized in the same manner as the SOSO sequence, but loads are de-energized individually as each level switch deactivates. In either sequence, the lead load position is advanced to equalize run time on each pump. An inrush delay on both models reduces line sags by preventing multiple loads from energizing simultaneously. Please see the online service manual for more details on SOSO and FOFO sequencing.

Series SLD Single Channel Leak Detection Relay is used to monitor the shaft seal of a submersible pump to detect a leak before pump failure. A leak is detected by sensing the status of a float or conductivity switch installed in the seal cavity. When this resistance drops below the set sensitivity, the output relay energizes and the LED indicator illuminates. The SLD offers normally open and normally closed relay contacts to energize an alarm and de-energize the pump in the event of a leak. When the seal failure condition clears, the relay automatically resets.

Series DPC Duplexing Pump Controller is used where two pumps are required to alternate to provide equal run time on each. Alternating loads allows for equal wear on both pumps lengthening their operation life. The controlled relay alternates each time the control switch opens. Two LED indicators show the load that is energized by the SPDT output relay. The DPC-ACS model is a standard duplexing controller providing the automatic alternating sequence. The DPC-ACL offers the same automatic sequencing as well as A-B or B-A sequence lock selectable by a three-position toggle switch.

Series DLD Dual Channel Leak Detection Relay is used to monitor the shaft seals of two submersible pumps to detect a leak before pump failure. A leak is detected by sensing the status of a float or conductivity switch installed in the seal cavity. When this resistance drops below the set sensitivity, the output relay energizes and the corresponding LED indicator illuminates. The DLD offers normally open relay contacts to energize an alarm or de-energize the pump in the event of a leak. When the seal failure condition clears, the relay automatically resets.
