Pentax FCP Series, FCP109, FCP111, FCP307 Operation And Maintenance Handbook
FCP
Single-phase Inverter for single or three-phase motor pump
Operation and maintenance handbook

1. SPECIFICATIONS
The aim of this handbook, we would like to give you the most important information about the correct
use and maintenance of the inverter; the models of FCP, differents for the voltage output are:
FCP109: Single-phase Inverter for Single-phase motor-pump, max. 1100W (1.5 Hp) for a maximum
current of 9A.
FCP111: Single-phase Inverter for Single-phase motor-pump, max. 1500W (2 Hp) for a maximum
current of 11A.
FCP307: Single-phase Inverter for Three-phase motor-pump, max. 1500W (2 Hp) for a maximum
current of 7A.
This Inverter is designed specifically for motor-pumps operation, all types not depending from the flow
or the pressure, with a perfect feedback control of pressure (detected with a pressure transducer), a
substantial energy savings (up to 40% on respect to the standard on-off system) combined with
various security features for the pump that are not possible in common appliances using pressure or
flow switch.
The following instructions are about the standard model only.
If you require thecnical assistance regarding specific parts at Service Sales please do specify the
exact initials of the model, followed by the number of the model, on the upper-left part of the product.

3. WARNINGS AND RISKS
The following instructions give you important information for correct assembling and
use of the product. Please do read terms and conditions before installing the device,
these instructions should be read by people who assemble or use it; besides, these
instructions should be available to all person assigned to device setting and
maintenance
The inverter voltage supply is only possible with Inverter closed box, after carefully
following all instructions concerning installation and electrical connections of above
and after following step by step the connections described in Chapter 4 of this
handbook.
Installation workers
The installation, the starting and the maintenance of the product must be done by users that have
read this handbook, in order to avoid any danger of an incorrect use.
Risks due to missed respect of the safety laws
Failing to respect the safety regulations, could endangers others and damage the devices, which can
lead to the loss of warranty. The results of the non-observance of the security rules can be:
Malfunctioning of the system
Danger to others, to electrical and mechanical events
Security for the users
All the accident-prevention laws must be respected.
Security rules for assembling and control
Assembling, controlling and servicing procedures of the device must be read on this handbook. All
operations on this device must be done when the system is not in motion and with no voltage supply.
Alterations and spare parts
Every machine, equipment or system alteration must be authorized by the manufacturer. For your
safety, it is important to use only original spare parts. The use of non-original components may
endanger others and can lead to loss of warranty.
Misdirect working conditions
The working security is guaranteed only for the conditions described in chapter 2 of this handbook.
The values shown cannot be exceeded
4. ASSEMBLING AND INSTALLING
Installation operations must be performed only by whom have carefully read this
handbook and in particular as described in chapter 3 (Warnings and Risks). Please do
observe the health and safety on accident prevention.
If the product shows present any damage signs, do not install it, but contact the assistant service
immediately.
Install the device in a place for away from ice, water, rain et cetera. Do respect working limits and be
extremely careful with the motor and inverter’s cooling.

4.1 Wall Inverter fixing in vertical position
Install the product in place away from frost and
weather conditions, mounting the unit on a wall in a
vertical position only, leaving at least 200mm of
space above and below the same so as to ensure
sufficient cooling of the heat sink on the back of the
inverter. The wall may also be of metal type as long
as it is not a heat source and be not directly exposed
to the sun.
For wall mounting the inverter using the N° 4 holes
7mm diameter arranged in the pattern of holes in
Figure 1.
4.2 Connecting the hydraulic pressure transducer at the pump
Proceed to the hydraulic installing in
accordance with current laws. To control
pressure in feedback you need to connect to
the pump outlet, the pressure transducer
supplied (No. 1 fig 2), ¼ "M, coming from the
central to the inverter.
The type of transducer supplied may be a
different one presented in this handbook, but
maintaining the same connection and
functioning.

4.2.1 Connecting the pressure transducer to New waterworks system
Connect the pressure transducer in the hole of the filling cap
¼ "F of the pump provided to the output pressure
(depending on the type of pump);
On the delivery of a multistage pump, assembled with a T-fitting is
possible to mount the pressure transducer in place of the pressure
gauge.
Be aware that: in multi-stage pumps with the hole filling near aspiration it
is not possible to mount the pressure transducer at that hole because it
will not do the correct output pressure.
Use ¼” F hole for the pressure gauge, which can be – in case –
removed for connecting the pressure transducer;
Use any other ¼ "F hole on the pump hydraulics connections,
possibly removing the cap (such as a hole for venting air);
