MATelec HydroTOUCH FPC-43420-I Mild Steel Three Phase 15 kW Variable Speed Quad Pump Controller

The MATelec HydroTOUCH FPC-43420-I gives quad-pump dosing systems fine 15 kW speed control using feedback from a 4-20 mA level transducer. This panel manages the operation of quad-pump configurations using a three-phase power supply of 400 Vac at 50 Hz. 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. Staggered operation is programmed into the system to prevent electrical surges and reduce mechanical pipe shock during pump cycling. Built-in duty sharing and alternation protocols balance operating hours across all connected pumps to extend equipment service life.

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

Standard 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.
