Designed for single-phase 230Vac supply, this dual-pump panel incorporates run capacitors while retaining standard dual-pump control, sequencing, and protection functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe controller manages automated duty sharing and alternation across both single-phase pumps, alternating the duty pump on each start cycle and after 30 minutes of continuous running. When the standby start input closes, the standby pump is energized to assist. A 3-second staggered start delay prevents simultaneous motor starts to reduce electrical current draw and water surge. Independent electronic current sensing protects both motors with selectable 0.1–6A and 5–16A overload ranges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe panel features a dual-pump capacitive touch keypad with status LEDs for power, system enable, level alarms, pump run status, auto\/manual modes, and fault codes. An integrated visual strobe and audible buzzer alarm include smart chirp silencing. Configurable DIP switches enable Level Control (up to 5 floats) or Pressure Control (up to 3 pressure switches).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt into a 400 x 400 x 200 mm powder-coated mild steel enclosure with an inner door, the panel is IP56 rated for outdoor mounting. Hardware includes a padlockable mains isolator, individual circuit breakers per pump, a removable gland plate, a volt-free BMS common fault output, and Modbus RTU Serial RS485 connections for SCADA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowder-coated mild steel enclosure measuring 400 mm high by 400 mm wide by 200 mm deep with removable gland plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP56 rated with inner door, for outdoor mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRun capacitors option (RCAPA) for single-phase pump operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-phase 230Vac supply voltage controlling two pumps with 240Vac switched outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic duty alternation on start and runtime, standby pump assist, and fault alternation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-second staggered start delay to prevent simultaneous starting current draw and water surge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndependent electronic overload protection per pump with selectable 0.1–6A and 5–16A ranges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual-pump capacitive touch keypad with status LEDs, mute\/reset, and mode selection buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePadlockable mains isolator, individual circuit breakers, volt-free BMS fault output, and RS-485 port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Matelec","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51128178311415,"sku":"FPC-82241-RCAPA","price":2271.57,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/0116\/3767\/files\/matelec-hydrostart-fpc-82241-rcapa-mild-steel-ip56-1ph-dual-pump-controller.png?v=1788856797","url":"https:\/\/foundationpumps.com.au\/products\/matelec-hydrostart-fpc-82241-rcapa-mild-steel-ip56-1ph-dual-pump-controller","provider":"Foundation Pumps","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
