Owners Manual
Pumptec is a microcomputer based pump
protection device that continuously
monitors motor load and power line
conditions to provide protection against
dry well conditions, waterlogged tanks,
and abnormal line voltage conditions.
Indicator lights provide complete system
status, which can be easily viewed
without removing the cover. Pumptec
interrupts power to the motor whenever
the motor load drops below a preset
level or the load drops quickly.
Pumptec is optimized to work with
Franklin 2 & 3-wire single phase motors
from 1/3 to 1-1/2 HP. An underload (dry
well) adjustment is provided to address
unusual situations.

9. Wire in alarm circuit, if desired.
10. Replace cover and secure cover screw.
11. Turn AC power back on.
*Note: If you will be using IR remote control to set the underload and
the time-out settings, set the appropriate adjustment knobs to
the “Remote” position (fully clockwise position). See Figure 4.
The initial remote settings are the same as the factory presets
- 70% for underload and 30 minutes for the underload time-
out. The underload adjustment is preset at the factory to detect
underload (dry well) conditions on most systems. In general,
there is no need to adjust this setting.
For more precise Control
and Data Logging features,
request the free software
for your Palm/Pocket PC.

Operation
Pumptec has three indicator lights labeled POWER, LOAD and VOLTAGE.
If the Pumptec is connected upstream of the pressure switch, the system
status can be determined from these indicator lights at any time. When
wired down stream of the control switch, no status will be displayed
when the control switch is open.
Power Indicator Light
If solid, the Pumptec has power and the system is idle. In this state, the
motor is not running and the Pumptec is waiting for the control device
(i.e. pressure switch) to close and turn on the motor.
When fl ashing, the system is pumping water and running normally.
Load Indicator Light
When the load light is solid, a dry well (underload) condition has
occurred. The Pumptec will wait the duration of the reset time-out
period before attempting to restart the motor.
A fl ashing load light indicates an overload condition has occurred.
The unit must be manually reset by removing power for 10 seconds.
An overload condition occurs when the motor current has become
excessively high.
Voltage Indicator Light
When the voltage light is solid, an under voltage condition has been
detected. The under voltage trip is factory preset to 203 volts. The
remote control feature may be used to alter the under voltage trip
point.
When the voltage light is fl ashing, an over voltage fault has been
detected. The over voltage trip is factory preset to 253 volts. The remote
control feature may be used to alter the over voltage trip point.
After a voltage fault has occurred, Pumptec will check the line voltage
every two minutes and will reset when the line voltage returns to the
normal range.
Load & Voltage Indicator Lights Flashing
When both the load and voltage indicator lights are fl ashing together
a “Rapid Cycle” condition has occurred. The Pumptec will reset after x
minutes.

Troubleshooting
Remote Control
A Pocket PC with an infrared port may be used to monitor the motor/
pump system performance and adjust the Pumptec trip points. When
dealing with unusual installations, the system monitor and underload
adjustment remote control features allow quick diagnosis of system
problems.
No Lights
No power is applied to the Pumptec. Check for voltage at the L1 and L2
connections. If Pumptec is wired downstream of the control switch, the
control switch may be open.
Solid Load Light
Pumptec has detected a dry well or underload condition.
A. Make sure the pump and motor are matched correctly.
B. Check for a blocked pump intake or stuck check valve.
C. The coupling between the motor & pump may be stripped.
D. Blocked plumbing or stuck check valve may be causing a
deadhead condition.
E. The underload sensitivity knob may be adjusted in cases where the
unit is too sensitive. After adjustment, check to insure the unit still
is able to detect a dry well condition.
Flashing Load Light
The system is drawing excessive current.
A. The motor is stalled or there is a ground fault.
Solid or Flashing Voltage Light
The line voltage is too high or too low.
A. An unloaded generator can cause a high line condition.
B. Low line conditions can be caused by loose connections.
C. Report persistent high or low line voltages to the power company.
Flashing Voltage & Load Lights
Rapid Cycle condition has occurred.
A. Check for a waterlogged pressure tank.
B. A bobbing fl oat switch may cause rapid cycling.
