Introduction

Diesel engine fire pump controllers are designed to automatically start a diesel engine driven fire pump upon

detection of a pressure drop in the fire protection system. A diesel engine fire pump controller provides automatic

& manual starting and stopping. An automatic start is controlled by a pressure transducer or by remote automatic

devices such as a deluge valve. A manual start is controlled by remote manual button or by controller pushbutton.

The automatic shutdown option provides a 30-minutes automatic stop after automatic start once all starting

causes have returned to normal. The diesel engine fire pump controller includes two battery chargers to ensure

the engine batteries are continuously charged.

Types of Diesel Engine Fire Pump Controllers

FIRE PUMP CATALOG NUMBER

MODEL N° EXAMPLE: GPD-12-120

Model Prefix: GPD, GPDFM

Battery Voltage: 12=12v, 24=24v

Incoming Voltage: 120=110/120V 50/60Hz, 220=208/240V 50/60Hz

Methods of starting/stopping

The controllers are available as combination automatic / non-automatic with provision for manual or automatic

shutdown (automatic shutdown only possible after automatic start).

METHODS OF STARTING

AUTOMATIC START

The controller will start automatically on low pressure detection by the pressure sensor when the pressure drops

below the cut-in threshold.

MANUAL START

The engine can be started by pressing the CRANK 1 or and/or CRANK 2 push button, regardless of the system

pressure, when the Main Selector switch is in the HAND position. The Fuel Solenoid Valve will open as soon as a

CRANK button is pressed and will remain in this state.

REMOTE MANUAL START

The engine can be started from a remote location by momentarily closing a contact of a manual push button.

REMOTE AUTOMATIC START, DELUGE VALVE START

The engine can be started from a remote location by momentarily opening a contact connected to an automatic

device. The controller must be in automatic mode.

SEQUENTIAL START

In case of a multiple pump application, it may be necessary to delay the starting of each motor when there is a

water pressure drop to prevent simultaneous starting of all motors.

FLOW START, HIGH ZONE START

The controller can be started by opening/closing a contact on the FLOW/ZONE START/STOP input.

WEEKLY START

The engine can be started (and stopped) automatically at the preprogrammed time.

TEST START

The motor can be started automatically for a preprogrammed time by pressing the run test button.

METHODS OF STOPPING

MANUAL STOP

Manual stop is done by pressing the STOP push button. Note that pressing the stop push button will stop the

engine only if all starting causes have disappeared.

AUTOMATIC STOP

The automatic stop is possible only after an automatic start and this function has been activated. When this

function is Enabled, the motor is automatically stopped 30 minutes (adjustable) after the restoration of the

pressure (above the cut-out threshold) given that no other run cause is present.

FLOW STOP, HIGH ZONE STOP

If the controller has been started by the FLOW/ZONE START/STOP input and the signal has returned to normal,

the motor will be stopped given that no other run cause is present.

EMERGENCY STOP

The emergency stop is always possible in any running condition and is done by positioning the main selector

-switch to the OFF position.

Installation

This diesel controller is UL listed and FM certified. The controller is built in accordance with the latest edition of the

National Fire Protection Association standard for the Installation of Centrifugal Fire Pumps, NFPA No.20

*The Bulk charging mode enables the boost function on the charger, allowing highier voltage that shorten the

charging time of the battery.

E- AC status: Red when there is a failure and green otherwise.

F- Amp meter: Displays the actual current between the charger and the battery in amps.

G- The battery: The battery will be red if it is in failure and green otherwise. The data shows the actual voltage of

the battery and the charger in volts.

H- Starter contactor: Grey when non active (open) and green when they are activated (closed) during a crank.

I- Starter state window: This window only appears during a cranking cycle. The counter inside indicates the step

timer, ranging from 15 to 0 seconds. As there are two cranking modes, “waiting for crank” and “cranking”, two

symbols will alternate: a gear during cranking mode and an hourglass during the waiting mode.

J- The starter gear: Grey when non active and green when activated during cranking.

K- The diesel engine: It will be grey if the engine is stopped, green if an “Engine Run” signal is detected and red if a

“Fail to start” occurred, after 6 unsuccessful cranking attempts. Inside the engine two major alarms are represented;

the “low oil pressure” alarm and the “engine high temperature” alarm. These alarms will stop the engine only if it is

running in test mode. When active, the appropriate alarm symbol will turn red.

L- Fuel solenoid valve: This valve controls the flow of fuel to the engine. When the fuel solenoid is activated, the

valve will be horizontal, green and the yellow representation of the fuel will flow through the entire pipe. When the

“Stop Solenoid valve” is activated, the valve will rotate vertically, become red and the yellow representation of the

fuel will stop at the valve, indicating that the fuel does not flow through anymore.

M- Motor starting or stopping cause: A grey box will indicate the reason why the motor is running.

Starting reasons:

LOCAL: This start cause is triggered if the engine is locally started directly from its own control panel and the option

is Enabled.

MANUAL: The controler receives a manual crank request from one or both of the manual crank membrane buttons

while the selector switch is the “HAND” position.

REMOTE MANUAL: Manual engine starting is activated by a remote start contact.

DELUGE: Automatic engine starting is activated by a deluge valve.

AUTO: Automatic engine starting is activated by pressure drop.

REMOTE AUTO: Automatic motor starting is activated by remote equipment

FLOW: Automatic motor starting is activated by a signal in the FLOW/ZONE START/STOP input.

HIGH ZONE: Automatic motor starting is activated by a signal in the FLOW/ZONE START/STOP input.

WEEK TEST: Automatic motor starting is activated by a scheduled test.

MANUAL TEST: Automatic motor starting is activated by the run test pushbutton.

AC FAIL: AC Fail will count the time following an AC Failure and at the end of a predetermined time, will start the

engine with an AC FAIL request.

A red rectangular box will indicate the reason why the engine is not running despite the fact that a request is being

made. Possible choices are:

OVERSPEED: This start cause happens when the controller receives a request to start, but the engines sends an

“Overspeed” signal, thus preventing its ability to effectively start the engine.

FAILSTART: This start cause happens when the controller receives a request to start, but a “Fail To Start” alarm is

active after a cranking sequence failure, thus preventing its ability to effectively start the engine.

LOW ZONE: A not running lower zone controller prevents the motor from running. This functionality is optional.

LOCKED: An interlock signal is preventing the motor from running.

N- Operations timers: This includes the sequential start timer, the run period shutdown timer, the manual test timer,

the weekly test timer and the AC Fail timer.

O- The pressure gage: It allows for a precise reading of the actual system pressure. The cut-in and cut-out are

represented by a red and green line on the gage, allowing a quick comparison between the actual pressure and the

set points. At the center of the gauge, a digital indicator shows the actual discharge pressure represented also by

the needle of the gauge. Just under of the digital pressure indicator, the actual pressure unit is shown. The

maximum allowable pressure is also indicated on the gauge and will scale the gauge accordingly.

P- HOA Indicator: Displays the current mode. Hand, Off, Automatic.

Q- Actuation Mode: Displays if the controler is Pressure Actuated or Non-Pressure Actuated.

R- Controler type: Displays if the controler is an Automatic or Non-Automatic type.

S- Shutdown mode: Displays if the shutdown on this controler is Automatic or Manual.

Screen Saver

The screen saver's goal is to expand the lifetime of the LCD screen. The screen saver will be instantly deactivated if

the engine is running or if an alarm is activated. To manually deactivate it, simply touch the screen or any

membrane button. After deactivation, the screen saver will always redirect to the “Home” page. It will also log off

any user by resetting the security level to 0.

Alarms

Alarms (Menu)

This page displays the list of currently active and occurred alarms. Alarms with adjustable parameter can be set in

the Config ˃ Advanced ˃ Alarms pages (see section 6).

Pump Room Trouble: A common alarm that is activated when one or more of these following events occur:

- Fuel Tank Leak

- Low Fuel Level

- High Fuel Level

- AC Failure

- Low Pump Room Temperature

- Low Suction Pressure

- Water Reservoir Low

- Water Reservoir Empty

CTRL Trouble: Important: this relay is normally energized when the controller is in normal condition. The relay is

de-energized when controller trouble is detected (fail safe). The controller trouble common alarm is active when one

or more of these conditions are active :

- Charger Failure 1-2

- DC failure

- Default Solenoid Valve

- Weekly Test Cut-In Not Reached

- AC Failure: Monitors the AC power and activates on a failure.

- DC Failure: Monitor the DC power from the batteries and activates if both batteries fail.

- Battery 1-2 Fail: Monitors the status of batteries and activates on a failure. This occurs when the battery is

disconnected, is of the wrong type or is unable to be recharged.

- Charger 1-2 Fail: Monitors the state of battery chargers and activates on a failure. This occurs when the battery

charger has a defect, is not properly powered, or is unable to provide the needed current. The charger will also

change to Boost Fault mode if during a boost test, the voltage does not rise. A NC dry contact is also connected

from the charger to the IO Board. The alarm will activated if this contact open for the time set on the Charger Fail

alarm page. Charger readings are not updated during cranking and/or running, due to reading instability under load.

As soon as the engine returns to an idle state, all readings and failure analysis are reactivated.

- Service Required: Activates when service is due for the controller. This occurs when the date set in the service

page has passed, or if no service has ever been done.

- Weak Battery 1-2: Activates if the battery voltage falls below the weak battery factory set point.

- Loss of Continuity 1-2: Activates if the engine start contactors are disconnected from the controller.

- Weekly Test Cut-In Not Reached: Activates if the Cut-In is not reached during a manual or a weekly run test. At

the end of the 255s timer, if the Cut-In is not reached, the test may still be successful at starting the engine if the

pressure has dropped by at least 5 PSI.

- Check Weekly Test Solenoid: Activates if the pressure does not drop a minimum of 5 PSI during the manual run

test or the weekly test. Indicates a failure with the Test Solenoid Valve.

- Pressure Transducer fault detected: If an optional dual pressure sensor is installed, it will be activated if the two

pressure transducers show different readings. Further investigation is advised to determine what caused the

different readings. Note that the controller will always choose the lowest pressure reading to determine the actual

system pressure. Also, if the voltage powering the transducer is below 0.5V or over 4.5V the alarm will be activated.

can be set. The “X” button allows the user to cancel editing the value. The back arrow erases the last entered

character. Simply click the “OK” button once the value is set. This type of text field is mostly used to generate a

digital text indication for a custom alarm input.

Advanced Configuration Page

Config > Advanced

This page is the portal to all the advanced configuration parameters of the ViZiTouch. It leads to 10 other pages:

Update Program Page

Config > Advanced > Software Update

This page is used to update the controller software. A USB key or a network connection with the software update is

needed. The controller cannot update to an older version.

Sensor Selection

Config > Advanced > Sensors

Five analogue sensors, an AC voltage sensor, two battery current sensors and two battery voltage sensors can be

calibrated by accessing this page. The Analogue Input 1 is dedicated to the Pressure Transducer. The other Analog

Input depends on the controller options.

Every sensor, except the AC Voltage can be calibrated the same way. The Signal destination, the Unit type, the

Unit, the Min and Max value are variables that are set in factory but the calibration can be made in the field.

There are three ways of calibrating a sensor that can be chosen in the windows below “Sensor value”.

-Sensor value: Use an external mean of measurement that is already calibrated. Bring the sensor to a low value

and take a measurement with the calibrated instrument. Enter that value in the “Low” window below the “Desired

value” and press the window on the right (with the circular arrow). Repeat with a higher value of the sensor. Then

press compute.

-Theorical voltage: Use a graphic of the theorical sensor’s voltage response (usually given in the datasheet of the

sensor). Enter a low point (value, voltage) and a high point. Then press compute.

-Theorical current: Same as the theorical voltage, but with amperes.

For better results, use two points that are far apart, but in the normal range of the sensor.

For the AC voltage, only one point is needed.

Alarms

Config > Advanced > Alarms

Most alarms are not configurable in the field, but some are with the appropriate password level. If it’s configurable,

the boxes will be in white. Otherwise the boxes will be grey. Also, the two last fields: Value Usage and Analog Value

are not always visible.

Text: This field can be used to change the name of the alarm that will be displayed while this alarm is active.

Start Alarm Test: The alarm can be tested using this button.

Enable: Check this box to enable the Alarm and to make this signal an alarm (red display). Otherwise, it will be a

warning (yellow display).

Audible: Check this box to make the bell ring while this alarm is active.

Unsilenceable: Check this box to make the bell unsilenceable while the alarm is active.

Annunciate when occurred: Check this box to create a new state for the alarm. After it has been “Active”, the alarm

will appear as “Occurred” in the alarm list when the condition triggering the alarm is no longer present.

Acknowledgeable: Check this box to make the alarm acknowledgeable. If an alarm is ackowledged, the bell will be

silenced and the alarm IO board Output will stop being active. To acknowledge an alarm, go to the alarm list page

and press the blue “Active” status on the right of the alarm. The “Active” status should change to “Acknowledge”.

Press again on the status to return to “Active”.

Timer on: It is the time delay between the triggering of the condition and the activation of the alarm.

Timer off: It is the time delay between the stoping of the condition and the deactivation of the alarm.

Value Usage, Analog Value: It is used to describe the activation range of the alarm. “Lower Than”, “Higher Than”

and “Between” can be selected. The coresponding value has to be entered.

Control Timers

Config > Advanced > Control Timers

This page is used to adjust the timers.

- Sequential Start Timer: The time delay between a demand becoming active and the starting of the engine.

(Optional)

- Run Period Timer: The time the motor will keep running after the demand is resolved.

Outputs
