• Control MPC-E maintains a constant
pressure through continuous adjustment
of the speed of the pumps.
• The system performance is adjusted to
the demand through cutting in/out the
required number of pumps and through
parallel control of the pumps in operation.
• Pump changeover is automatic and
depends on load, operating hours and
fault.
• All pumps in operation will run at equal
speed.
• The number of pumps in operation also
depends on the energy consumption of
the pumps. If only one pump is required,
two pumps will be running at a lower
speed if this results in a lower energy
consumption. This requires that the
differential pressure of the pump is
measured.

The description of functions is based on the four main menus of
the CU 351 control unit: Status, Operation, Alarm and Settings.
The functions apply to all control variants unless otherwise
stated.
11.4 Status (1)
The first status display is shown below. This display is shown
when the Control MPC is switched on, and it appears when the
buttons of the control panel have not been touched for
15 minutes.
Fig. 6Status
Description
No settings can be made in this menu.
The current value (process value, PV) of the control parameter,
usually the discharge pressure, is shown in the upper right corner
(G) together with the selected setpoint (SP) (H).
The upper half of the display (A) shows a graphic illustration of
the pump system. The selected measuring parameters are shown
with sensor symbol and current value.
In the middle of the display, an information field (I) will be shown if
any of the following events occur
• limited operation due to standby pump
• proportional pressure influence active
• external setpoint influence active
• alternative setpoint active
• clock program active

• remote-controlled via GENI (RS-485).
The lower display half (B) shows
• the latest current alarm, if any, and the fault cause together
with the fault code in brackets
• system status with current operating mode and control source
• pump status with current operating mode and manual/auto.
If a fault has occurred, the symbol will be
shown in the alarm line (C) together with the
cause and fault code, for instance
Overtemperature (64).
If the fault is related to one of the pumps, the symbol will also
be shown in front of the status line (D) of the pump in question.
At the same time, the symbol will be flashing instead of the
pump symbol (E). The symbol will be shown to the right in the
top line of the display (F). As long as a fault is present, this
symbol will be shown in the top line of all displays.

Description
Here the operating mode of the system is shown as well as from
where the Control MPC is controlled.
Operating modes
Control MPC has six operating modes:
1. Normal
The pumps adapt their performance to the requirement.
2. Max.
The pumps run at a constant high speed. Normally, all pumps
run at maximum speed.
3. User-defined
The pumps run at a constant speed set by the user. Usually, it
is a performance between Max. and Min.
4. Min.
The pumps run at a constant low speed. Normally, one pump
is running at a speed of 70 %.
5. Stop
All pumps have been stopped.
6. Emergency run
The pumps run according to the setting made in the display
Emergency run (4.3.5).
The performance required in the operating modes Max., Min., User-defined and Emergency run can be set in the Settings
menu. See sections 11.7.33 Min., max. and user-defined duty (4.3.14) and 11.7.25 Emergency run (4.3.5).
The current operating mode can be controlled from four different
sources: Fault, External signal, CU 351 and Bus.
Control source
Control MPC can be set to remote control via an external bus
(option). In this case, a setpoint and an operating mode must be
set via the bus.
In the Settings menu, it is possible to select whether the CU 351
or the external bus is to be the control source.
The status of this setting is shown in the display Operating mode.

Description
This display shows the selected setpoint and whether it comes
from the CU 351 or an external bus.
The display also shows all seven possible setpoints from CU 351
(for closed- and open-loop control). At the same time, the
selected setpoint is shown.
As it is a status display, no settings can be made.
Setpoints can be changed in the Operation or Settings menu.
See section 11.7.3 Alternative setpoints (4.1.2).
11.4.5 Setpoint influence (1.2.3)
Fig. 11 Setpoint influence
Description
The selected setpoint can be influenced by parameters. The
parameters are shown as percentage from 0 to 100 % or as a
pressure measured in bar, They can only reduce the setpoint, as
the influence in percentage divided with 100 is multiplied with the
selected setpoint:
TM03 2272 4807TM03 8948 4807

Fig. 17 Control mode
Description
There are two control modes, namely closed and open loop.
Examples:
Closed loop
The typical control mode is closed loop where the built-in
PI controller ensures that the system reaches and maintains the
selected setpoint. The performance is based on the setpoint set
for closed loop. See figs 18 and 19.
Open loop
In open-loop control, the pumps run at a fixed speed.
The pump speed is calculated from the performance set by the
user (0-100 %). The pump performance in percentage is
proportional with the flow rate.
Open-loop control is usually used when the system is controlled
by an external controller which controls the performance via an
external signal. The external controller could for instance be a
building management system connected to the Control MPC.
In such cases the Control MPC is like an actuator.
See figs 20 and 21.

Description
A fault in the system or one of the components monitored can
cause an alarm or a warning . Besides the fault signal via
the alarm/warning signal relay and the red indicator light on the
CU 351, an alarm can also cause a change of operating mode,
for instance from Normal to Stop. A warning only causes a fault
indication.
The table shows the possible causes of fault together with an
alarm code number, and whether they result in an alarm or a
warning. It also shows to what operating mode the system
changes in case of alarm, and whether restart of the system and
reset of the alarm is manual or automatic.
The table also shows that the reaction to some of the fault causes
mentioned can be set in the Settings menu. See sections

Description
This function makes it possible to adapt the setpoint by letting
measuring parameters influence the setpoint. Typically an analog
signal from a flow or temperature transmitter, or a similar
transmitter. Section 12. Measuring parameters shows an
overview of transmitter types and possible positions.
As an example, the setpoint can be adapted to parameters that
can influence the discharge pressure or temperature of the
system. The parameters which influence the performance of the
system are shown as a percentage from 0 to 100 %. They can
only reduce the setpoint, as the influence as a percentage divided
with 100 is multiplied with the setpoint:
The influence values can be set individually.
A low-pass filter ensures smoothing of the measured value which
influences the setpoint. This results in stable setpoint changes.
Setting range
The following parameters can be selected.
• 0-100 % signal
• Inlet pressure
• Discharge pressure
• External pressure

Description
This function limits the number of pump starts and stops per hour
for the complete system. It reduces noise emission and improves
the comfort of systems with mains-operated pumps.
Each time a pump starts or stops, the CU 351 calculates when
the next pump is allowed to start/stop in order not to exceed the
permissible number of starts per hour.
The function always allows pumps to be started to meet the
requirement, but pump stops will be delayed, if needed, in order
not to exceed the permissible number of starts per hour.
The time between pump starts must be between the minimum
time between start/stop, see section 11.7.12, and 3600/n, n being

Description
This function makes it possible to limit the maximum performance
of the system, by selecting one or more pumps as standby
pumps.
If a three-pump system has one standby pump, maximum two
pumps are allowed to be in operation at a time.
If one of the two pumps in operation has a fault and is stopped,
the standby pump will be started. The performance of the system
is thus not reduced.
The status as standby pump alternates between all pumps.

Fig. 50 Forced pump changeover
Description
This function ensures that the pumps run for the same number of
operating hours.
In certain applications, the requirement remains constant for long
periods and does not require all pumps to run. In such situations,
pump changeover does not take place naturally, and forced pump
changeover may thus be required.
Once every 24 hours, the CU 351 checks if any pump running has
a larger number of operating hours than pumps that are stopped.
If this is the case, the pump will be stopped and replaced by a
pump with a lower number of operating hours.
Setting range
The function can be activated/deactivated. The hour of the day at
which the changeover is to take place can be set.

from the pumped liquid.
• the pumped liquid does not decay in the pump.
• trapped air is removed from the pump.
The pumps start automatically one by one and run for five
seconds.
Pumps in the operating mode Manual are not
included in the test run. If there is an alarm, the
test run will not be carried out.

Fig. 52 Pilot pump
Description
The function controls a pilot pump via a digital output. The pilot
pump takes over the operation from the main pumps in periods
when the consumption is so small that the stop function of the
main pumps is activated. See section 11.7.23 Stop function (4.3.1).
Via a digital input, the operational state of the pilot pump is
monitored, i.e. whether it is operational or in a fault condition.
The purpose is to
• save energy
• reduce the number of operating hours of the main pumps.
If the pilot pump cannot keep the pressure by itself, one or more
main pumps are started. If only one main pump is started and
runs on/off operation, the pilot pump remains cut in. If one or
more main pumps run continuously, the pilot pump is cut out.
Set the setpoint of the pilot pump to this value:
H
+ 1/2 on/off band + 8 metres.

If the setpoint of the main pumps is changed, the
setpoint of the pilot pump must be changed too.

11.7.18 Pump stop attempt (4.2.7)
Fig. 53 Pump stop attempt
Description
The function makes it possible to set automatic stop attempts of a
pump when several pumps are running. It ensures that the
optimum number of pumps is always running, in terms of energy
consumption. See 11.7.19 Pump start and stop speed (4.2.8). At
the same time, the purpose is to avoid disturbances in connection
with automatic stop of pumps.
Stop attempts can either take place with a fixed interval set under
Interval between stop attempts or by self learning. If self
learning is selected, the interval between stop attempts will be
increased if repeated attempts to stop the pump fail.

11.7.19 Pump start and stop speed (4.2.8)
Description
The function controls the starting and stopping of pumps.
There are two options:
1. Use calculated speed
This function ensures that the optimum number of pumps is
always running at a desired duty point, in terms of energy
consumption. The CU 351 calculates the required number of
pumps and their speed. This requires that the differential
pressure of the pump is measured by a differential pressure
sensor or separate pressure sensors on the inlet and
discharge side.
When calculated speed has been selected, the CU 351
ignores the percentages set.
2. Use fixed speed
The pumps are started and stopped at speeds set by the user.

TM03 1692 2705TM03 9292 4807
Fig. 59 Stop function
Description
This function is typically used in constant pressure applications
and makes it possible to stop the last pump if there is no or a very
small consumption. The purpose is to
• save energy
• prevent heating of shaft seal faces due to increased
mechanical friction as a result of reduced cooling by the
pumped liquid
• prevent heating of the pumped liquid.
The description of the stop function applies to all booster systems
with variable-speed pumps. Control MPC-S will have on/off
control of all pumps as described in section 8. Overview of control variants.
Fig. 61 On/off operation
The flow rate is estimated by the CU 351 when the pump is in the
stop period. As long as the flow rate is lower than Q
will run on/off. If the flow rate is increased to above Q
pump returns to normal operation, H

. H
is equal to the
set
, the pump

, the
min
current setpoint. See section 11.4.4 Setpoint (1.2.2).
Detection of low flow rate
Low flow rate can be detected by means of
• direct flow measurement with a flowmeter or flow switch
• estimation of flow rate by measurement of pressure and
speed.
If the booster system is not connected to a flowmeter or flow
switch, the stop function will use the estimating function.
If the detection of low flow rate is based on flow estimation, a
diaphragm tank of a certain size and with a certain precharge
pressure is required.
Hydro MPC-E and -F: 0.7 x setpoint.
Hydro MPC-S:0.9 x setpoint.
During each flow estimation (every 2 minutes), the estimating
function will disturb the discharge pressure by ±10 % of the
setpoint. If this disturbance is not acceptable, the stop function
must be based on direct flow measurement with a flowmeter or
flow switch.
The minimum flow rate can be set, i.e. the flow rate at which the
booster system changes to on/off control of the last pump in
operation.
If both a flowmeter and a flow switch are connected, the
changeover to on/off control is determined by the unit first
indicating low flow rate.
Setting range
On/off band:5 to 30 %
Min. flow rate: 2 to 50 % of the nominal flow rate (Q
nom
) of one
of the pumps. (Can only be set if direct flow
measurement by means of flowmeter has been
selected.)

Description
This function is typically used in booster applications and ensures
a smooth start-up of systems with for instance empty pipes.
Start-up takes place in two phases. See fig. 65.
1. Filling phase.
The pipework is slowly filled with water. When the pressure
sensor of the system detects that the pipework has been filled,
phase two begins.
2. Pressure build-up phase.
The system pressure is increased until the setpoint is
reached. The pressure build-up takes place over a ramp time.
If the setpoint is not reached within a given time, a warning or
an alarm can be given, and the pumps can be stopped at the
same time.

Fig. 85 Flow estimation
Description
As described in section 11.7.37 Pump curve data (4.3.19), the
CU 351 can optimise operation according to performance curves
and motor data. In this display, curve types are selected which
the CU 351 will use for the optimisation if they are available.
At large flow rates, there may be a considerable head loss
between the pump discharge flange and the pressure sensor. The
loss is caused by non-return valves and pipe bends. To improve
the flow estimation of the system, it is necessary to compensate
for the difference between the measured and the actual
differential pressure across the pump. This is done by entering
the head loss in non-return valves and pipe bends at the rated
flow rate of one pump.
Setting range
• 2nd order QH polynomial
• 5th order QH polynomial
• Power polynomial, QP
• Head loss.

11.7.42 Dry-running protection (4.4.1)
Fig. 87 Dry-running protection
Description
Dry-running protection is one of the most important monitoring
functions, as bearings and shaft seal may be damaged if the
pumps run dry. Grundfos thus always recommends dry-running
protection.
The function is based on monitoring of the inlet pressure or the
level in a possible tank or pit on the suction side.
Level switches, pressure switches or analog sensors signalling
water shortage at a set level can be used.
There are three different methods for detection of water shortage:
• Pressure switch on suction manifold or float switch/electrode
relay in the supply tank. See section 11.7.43 Dry-running protection with pressure/level switch (4.4.1.1).
• Measurement of inlet pressure in the suction manifold by
means of an analog pressure transmitter. See section
11.7.44 Dry-running protection with pressure transmitter
(4.4.1.2).
• Measurement of level in the supply tank by means of an
analog level transmitter. See section 11.7.45 Dry-running protection with level transmitter (4.4.1.3).

TM03 8981 4807
Fig. 91 Min. pressure
Description
The discharge pressure is monitored if the application is pressure
boosting. In all other applications, the system pressure is
monitored. The CU 351 will react if the pressure becomes lower
than a set minimum level for an adjustable time.
The minimum pressure can be monitored if a fault indication is
required in situations where the discharge pressure becomes
lower than the set minimum pressure.
It is possible to set whether the indication is to be just a warning
or an alarm stopping the pumps. This may be desirable if Control
MPC is used for an irrigation system where a very low discharge
pressure may be due to pipe fracture and thus an extraordinarily
high consumption and a very low counter-pressure. In such
situations, it is desirable that the system stops and indicates
alarm. This situation will require a manual reset of alarms.
It is possible to set a start-up delay ensuring that the system can
build up pressure before the function is activated. It is also
possible to set a time delay, i.e. for how long time the discharge
pressure may be lower than the set minimum pressure before the
alarm is activated.
Setting range

sensor.
• Activation of stop when the pressure falls below the minimum
pressure.

Fig. 92 Max. pressure
Description
The discharge pressure is monitored if the application is pressure
boosting. In all other applications, the system pressure is
monitored. The CU 351 will react if the pressure becomes higher
than a set maximum level.
In certain installations, a too high discharge pressure may cause
damage. It may therefore be necessary to stop all pumps for a
short period if the pressure is too high.
It is possible to set whether the Control MPC is to restart
automatically after the pressure has dropped below the maximum
level, or if the system must be reset manually. Restart will be
delayed by an adjustable time. See section 11.7.1 2 Min. t ime between start/stop (4.2.1).

TM03 2313 4807
Fig. 94 Limit 1 exceeded 1
Description
With this function, the CU 351 can monitor set limits of analog
values. It will react if the values exceed the limits. Each limit can
be set as a maximum or minimum value. For each of the
monitored values, a warning limit and an alarm limit must be
defined.
The function makes it possible to monitor two different locations
in a pump system at the same time. For instance the pressure at
a consumer and the pump discharge pressure. This ensures that
the discharge pressure does not reach a critical value.
If the value exceeds the warning limit, a warning is given. If the
value exceeds the alarm limit, the pumps are stopped.
A delay can be set between the detection of an exceeded limit
and the activation of a warning or an alarm. A delay can also be
set for resetting a warning or an alarm.
A warning can be reset automatically or manually.
It is possible to set whether the system is to restart automatically
after an alarm, or if the alarm must be reset manually. Restart can
be delayed by an adjustable time. It is also possible to set a startup delay ensuring that the system reaches a steady state before
the function becomes active.

Fig. 95 Pumps outside duty range
Description
The function gives a warning if the duty point of the pumps moves
outside the defined range. For instance, if the inlet pressure
becomes lower than a minimum permissible value, thus causing a
risk of cavitation for some pump types.
The warning is given with a set time delay. It is possible to set
whether the warning is to be reset automatically or manually
when the duty point comes within the defined duty range. It is
also possible to set a relay output to be activated when the
warning is given, and to be deactivated when the warning is
reset.
This function requires that the discharge pressure and the inlet
pressure (either measured or configured) or the differential
pressure of the pumps is monitored, and that CU 351 contains
valid pump data from either a GSC file or from manual input.
See section 11.7.37 Pump curve data (4.3.19).

11.8.1 Ethernet
Ethernet is the most widely used standard for local networks
(LAN). The standardisation of this technology has created some
of the easiest and cheapest ways of creating communication
between electrical units, for instance between computers or
between computers and control units.
The web server of the CU 351 makes it possible to connect a
computer to the CU 351 via an Ethernet connection. The user
interface can thus be exported from the CU 351 to a computer so
that the CU 351 and consequently the system can be monitored
and controlled externally.
Grundfos recommends that you protect the
connection to the CU 351 according to your
safety requirements in consultation with the
system administrator.
In order to use the web server, you must know the IP address of
the CU 351. All network units must have a unique IP address in
order to communicate with each other. The IP address of the
CU 351 from factory is 192.168.0.102.
Alternatively to the factory-set IP address, it is possible to use a
dynamic assignment of IP address. This is possible by activating
a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) either directly in
the CU 351 or via the web server. See the example in fig. 108.
Dynamic assignment of an IP address for the CU 351 requires a
DHCP server in the network. The DHCP server assigns a number
of IP addresses to the electrical units and makes sure that two
units do not receive the same IP address.
A traditional Internet browser is used for connection to the web
server of the CU 351.
If you want to use the factory-set IP address, no changes are
required in the display. Open the Internet browser and enter the
IP address of the CU 351.
In order to use dynamic assignment, the function must be
activated. Click Use DHCP in the menu line. A check mark
next to the menu line shows that activation has been made.
After activation in the display, open the Internet and enter the
host name of the CU 351 instead of the IP address. The Internet
browser will now try to connect to the CU 351. The host name can
be read in the display, but can only be changed by either a GSCfile (configuration file) or via a web server. See Change of network setting on page 60.
To use DHCP, a host name is required.
This is the first display shown when connecting to the CU 351.

When user name and password have been entered, a Java
Runtime Environment application starts up in the CU 351,
provided that it has been installed on the computer in question.
If this is not the case, but the computer is connected to Internet,
then use the link on the screen to download and install the Java
Runtime Environment application.

The Java Runtime Environment application will then export the
CU 351 user interface (including display and operating panel) to
the computer screen. It is now possible to monitor and control the
CU 351 from the computer.

11.8.2 GENIbus
By installing a GENIbus module in the CU 351 it is possible to
connect the system to an external network. The connection can
take place via a GENIbus-based network or a network based on
another fieldbus protocol via a gateway. See examples in fig. 107.
For further information, contact Grundfos.
The gateway may be a Grundfos CIU communication interface or
a third-party gateway. For further information on the CIU, see
WebCAPS, or contact Grundfos.
