FTA566E Jockey Pump Controllers are intended for use with fire pump systems. They are used for pressure maintenance in fire pump installations to prevent unnecessary operation of the main fire pump. FTA566E Jockey Pump Controllers use Wye-Delta Open Transition Starting which reduces motor current. When starting the motor will be connected in a wye configuration and draw approximately 33% of its normal inrush current and develop approximately 33% of its normal starting torque. After a time delay, the motor is automatically reconnected in delta, applying full voltage to the motor windings.
STARTING METHOD: Wye Delta Open Transition
OPERATING VOLTAGE: 200-600/3 VAC
ENCLOSURE: NEMA Type 2 / 12
Standard Features—The following are included as standard with each controller:
• NEMA Type 2 (IEC IP22) Painted Steel Enclosure
• Circuit Breaker
• Horsepower rated motor starter
• Suitable for use as service equipment
• OFF-AUTO push-buttons
• Minimum run timer On-Delay timer
• Control circuit transformer with 24VAC secondary
• 0-600 psi (0-42 bar) solid state pressure transducer
• Visual Indication, Controller in AUTO
• Door mounted pressure display/user interface.
• LED indication for pressure above stop setting (green), pressure between start and stop setting (yellow), and pressure below start setting (red).
• Start and Stop push-buttons
• Rotary style door mounted disconnect handle with door interlock
