Variable-speed pump
The Grundfos variable-speed pump is another product
with fully integrated control. The variable-speed
controller requires a 0-10/2-10 VDC or 0-20/4-20 mA
control signal, which is user-selectable.
If desired, the manual-% dial allows the speed of the
pump to be manually adjusted and set by the user. The
speed of the pump may be manually adjusted
anywhere from min. to 100 %, but once set, remains
fixed at that speed.
In addition, the pump speed may be set as 0-100 % or
15-100 % by user.
The controller also provides pump exercising for 10
seconds every three days and a power-up reset, which
runs the pump for three seconds at full speed, for all
modes of operation.
LEDs on the terminal box indicate operation (power is
applied) and performance (flashing slowly or quickly).
