It features a protective inner door for enhanced electrical isolation in open weather conditions. This unit manages standard sewage pump-out or drainage pits with dedicated level monitoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for three-phase 400 Vac power networks, the panel requires a neutral wire to supply its low-voltage control circuits. Overload protection is managed by an external thermal overload relay adjustable between 12 and 18 Amps. The thermal elements heat up and deflect during prolonged overcurrent, isolating the contactor switching lines. The unit must undergo a natural cooldown period before the fault can be reset.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDIP switch configuration on the control board selects between level-empty level control and pressure-boosting setups. Level Empty uses float switches for low level, stop, start, and high level, whereas Pressure Boost utilizes a pressure switch. Keypad buttons enable manual mode, with DIP switch 5 providing a five-minute manual timeout to prevent prolonged unmonitored running.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe IP56 weather-resistant cabinet is fitted with three-phase contactors, individual circuit breakers, and an inner door. Keypad indicators show active level inputs and system status. Onboard alarms drive a visual strobe and audible buzzer alarms provide indication of system faults under smart chirp control. SCADA networks communicate over Modbus RTU RS485 terminals, and a volt-free BMS common fault relay is standard. Software features include low-level protection and a 7-day pump anti-seize program.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolt-free common fault contact providing remote alarm status telemetry for building management systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividual pump circuit breakers providing electrical protection and isolation for each pump.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePad-lockable mains power isolator switch to physically isolate supply lines for technical diagnostics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacitive touch user interface featuring scannable indicator lights and mute\/reset keypad buttons.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard external thermal overload relay adjustable between 12 and 18 Amps for primary motor protection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn-board RS485 connection terminal enabling Modbus RTU communication directly with SCADA systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMechanical bimetallic overload elements that deflect during overcurrent to isolate starter contactor coils.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Matelec","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51099293122807,"sku":"FPC-82143-E","price":1742.35,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/0116\/3767\/files\/matelec-hydrostart-fpc-82143-e-mild-steel-ip56-inner-door-three-phase-dol-single-pump-controller.png?v=1788339275","url":"https:\/\/foundationpumps.com.au\/products\/matelec-hydrostart-fpc-82143-e-mild-steel-ip56-inner-door-three-phase-dol-single-pump-controller","provider":"Foundation Pumps","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
