The LC-1 tank LEVEL CONTROLLER turns pumps on and off to automatically fill a tank or empty a tank. One of the float switches starts your pump. When the level reaches the other float switch, it stops the pumping. Built-in level alarm to detect overfills. Pump-up or pump-down applications.
Better Pump Control
Uniterruptible battery power is always on duty.
Batteries last for years with ultra-low power consumption and high capacity lithium battery. (included)
Emergency Level Alarm built in. Just in case of pump failure there is a redundant float switch built in.
Loud 103dB warbling tone cuts through the loudest industrial noise.
Rugged. Built for rough, wet and corrosive environments. NEMA 4X rating.
Low battery alert.
Reliable. Floats are protected inside a pipe.
Versatile. Switch between pump-down or pump-up operation with a switch.
Operation The pump-up controller will turn on a pump to fill a tank that is continually emptied of liquid. When the liquid level drops so that it reaches the low-level float switch the LC-1 Pump Controller starts your pump to fill the tank. When the level drops to the upper control float, the relay opens to stop your pump. The controller can work the opposite way as a pump-down controller with a switch. In this case when the liquid level falls below the low float, it turns your pump on to fill the tank until the liquid level reaches the top float, when your pump is turned off.
Installation The Pump Controller is designed to be quickly installed and working in under 5 minutes. Simply mount it on your tank and adjust the depth with the set screw. It comes with a convenient piggyback plug so you can plug your pump directly so no hard wiring needed.
LEVEL CONTROLLER LC-1 FOR TANKS
Emergency Overfill Level Alarm Built In There are redundant float switches to detect high and low level. If there is a problem that causes the liquid level to rise higher than the the "emergency" float sounds a loud warbling audio alarm and flashing LED.
Alarm Silence Button There is a button on the side of the level controller to silence the audio alarm. Button also tests the electrical function of the circuit if pushed when not in alarm state. This button also serves to test the cricuit and relay.
Low Battery alert is included. Unit will go into a power-conserving beeping and flashing mode until battery is replaced. Ultra-low power consumption circuit allows batteries to last for years.
