MATelec HydroTOUCH FPC-43320-I Mild Steel Three Phase 15 kW Variable Speed Triplex Pump Controller

Precise dosing across a three-pump system is supported by the MATelec HydroTOUCH FPC-43320-I, a 15 kW controller matched with a 16 bar pressure transducer. Operating on a three-phase power supply of 400 Vac at 50 Hz, this controller manages triplex-pump setups to ensure system parameters are met. Based on real-time sensor feedback, the system adjusts pump performance to maintain the configured operating conditions.

To maintain system efficiency, this panel incorporates advanced PID control parameters that adjust pump speed in response to system feedback. To eliminate high starting currents and minimize pipeline water hammer, the control panel executes staggered pump starting and stopping sequences. Run hours are balanced across all available drives through built-in duty alternation and automatic sharing protocols.

An integrated Setup Wizard on the 7-inch touchscreen HMI simplifies system commissioning. Users can monitor real-time power and water usage graphs, historical trend plots, and system event logs directly from the screen.

Din rail mounted terminals are provided for dual 4–20 mA inputs for level, pressure or temperature transducers, plus up to five 24 Vdc digital inputs. Standard RCD protection is not recommended because VSD EMC filtering can cause nuisance tripping. If RCD protection is required, Type B RCDs must be used with consideration of VSD earth leakage current.
