This panel manages the operation of quad-pump configurations using a three-phase power supply of 400 Vac at 50 Hz. The unit maintains consistent flow, pressure, or level based on real-time feedback from connected analog transducers and digital switches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMotor frequency is controlled using PID speed control in pressure, flow and temperature modes, or proportional speed control in level mode. Staggered pump starting and stopping sequences are programmatically executed to prevent electrical current surges and mechanical water hammer. Run hours are balanced across all available drives through built-in duty alternation and automatic sharing protocols.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 7-inch touchscreen HMI hosts a Setup Wizard to simplify system commissioning. Users can monitor real-time power and water usage graphs, historical trend plots, and system event logs directly from the screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandard terminal connections accommodate dual analog 4-20 mA inputs, up to five 24 Vdc digital inputs, and a pulse flow meter. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains constant pressure or flow rate using dynamic PID adjustment loops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquipped with a dedicated Variable Speed Drive per pump for high-precision frequency control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides configurable transducer inputs for pressure, flow, level or temperature control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated Setup Wizard on 7-inch color touchscreen HMI simplifies system commissioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides up to ten assignable volt-free outputs for remote BMS status monitoring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports Modbus RTU RS485 SCADA protocols for remote monitoring and diagnostics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures a pad-lockable mains power isolator switch for electrical safety\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImplements staggered pump starting and stopping to prevent high starting current and water surge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in variable speed drive protections: thermal overload, phase loss, under\/over voltage, and earth fault\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Matelec","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51095969497335,"sku":"FPC-43420-A","price":10539.32,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/0116\/3767\/files\/matelec-hydrotouch-fpc-43420-a-three-phase-variable-speed-quad-pump-controller.png?v=1788256637","url":"https:\/\/foundationpumps.com.au\/products\/matelec-hydrotouch-fpc-43420-a-three-phase-variable-speed-quad-pump-controller","provider":"Foundation Pumps","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
