Description:

The Pump Protector is an electronic control module designed to help protect pump
motor damage due to sudden restriction in water ow or when system is dry. The
product monitors subtle line power changes that are created by the pump during
changing load conditions, and therefore does not need level
sensors which can plug during operation.

When line current changes exceed the product’s internal threshold, the power to the
pump is switched off until the user pushes the reset button. The product also has
calibration means to set the lower and upper current threshold specic to each pump
size to protect during abnormal power changes.
