The barrier relays operate at energy levels that cannot ignite potentially explosive atmospheres, preventing excess voltage and current from reaching the hazardous area under fault conditions. The controller is housed in an IP56 rated powder coated mild steel enclosure with inner door for outdoor mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HydroSTART capacitive touch keypad provides indicator lights for system, pump, and input status along with level alarm indication. Six digital inputs accept float or pressure switches for level or pressure control modes, with the standard terminal setup providing low level, duty stop, duty start, standby start, high level, and system enable connections. Current sensing with selectable low range (0.1 to 6 Amps) or high range (5 to 16 Amps) provides adjuconsistent overload, undercurrent, and zero current protection for the single-phase motor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControl functions include duty sharing and alternation, staggered pump start to reduce current draw, manual pump control with optional timeout, and smart chirp mode alarms that auto-silence after five minutes. Fault protection covers high level alarm, low level shutdown, low pressure protection, prime loss detection, and pump anti-seize. Modbus RTU serial RS485 connections allow SCADA integration, and a BMS volt free output provides a common fault signal to building management systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntrinsically safe barrier relays for hazardous area float switch inputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP56 rated powder coated mild steel enclosure with inner door\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacitive touch keypad with system, pump, and input status indicators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix digital inputs for float or pressure switch configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelectable current range 0.1 to 6 Amps or 5 to 16 Amps per pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModbus RTU serial RS485 for SCADA integration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuty sharing, staggered start, and smart chirp alarm functions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Matelec","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51132621324535,"sku":"FPC-82141-INT","price":2929.4,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/0116\/3767\/files\/matelec-hydrostart-fpc-82141-int-mild-steel-ip56-1ph-intrinsically-safe-pump-controller.png?v=1788929706","url":"https:\/\/foundationpumps.com.au\/products\/matelec-hydrostart-fpc-82141-int-mild-steel-ip56-1ph-intrinsically-safe-pump-controller","provider":"Foundation Pumps","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
