Diesel engine fire pump controllers are designed to automatically start a diesel engine driven fire pump upon detection of an automatic start pressure switch in the fire protection system. A diesel engine fire pump controller provides automatic & manual starting. An automatic start is controlled by a pressure switch or by remote automatic devices as deluge valve. The "Operate Manual Start Test Pushbutton" implements a way to simulate the use of the "Emergency Pushbutton" by being activated after an automatic start followed by a stopping of the Firepump, or following a "Engine Fail to Start" alarm. A manual start is controlled by an Emergency Start pushbutton, hardwired to the relay board, that can securely start the engine. The diesel engine fire pump controller includes two battery chargers to maintain the engine batteries continuously charged.
Types of Diesel Engine Fire Pump Controllers
FIRE PUMP CATALOG NUMBER
MODEL No. EXAMPLE : HFD-12-220
Model Prefix HFD
Battery Voltage 12 : 12V 24 : 24V
Incoming Voltage 220: 208/240V 50/60Hz
Methods of Starting/Stopping
The controllers are available as combination automatic / non-automatic.
METHODS OF STARTING
MANUAL START The automatic engine cranking sequence can be started by pressing the START push button on the ViZiTouch.
REMOTE MANUAL START The engine can be started from a remote location by momentarily closing a contact of a manual push button.
OPERATE MANUAL START TEST
The engine can be started by using this pushbutton after a “Fail to Start” alarm or after an automatic start followed by
a stop. This method of starting will activate the last cranking starters that did not attempt to crank, and is in parallel with the “Emergency Start” button.
EMERGENCY START The engine can be started from the Emergency Start Push Button located behind the breakable cover.
REMOTE AUTOMATIC START, DELUGE VALVE START The engine can be started from a remote location by momentarily opening a contact of a pressure switch.
SEQUENTIAL START In case of a multiple pump application, it may be necessary to delay the starting of each motor when there is a water pressure drop to prevent simultaneous starting of all motors.
METHODS OF STOPPING
MANUAL STOP Manual stop is done by pressing the STOP push button. Note that pressing the stop push button will stop the engine only if all starting causes have disappeared.
Introduction
5 EMERGENCY STOP The emergency stop is always possible in any running condition and is done by pressing the Stop pushbutton for 8
Page 6
seconds. This will activate the “Auto Mode Bypass”, stopping the engine and preventing the engine from starting
automatically. Use only for maintenance operations..

The controller is built in accordance with the latest edition of the EN-12845 Standard, and also based on the National Fire Protection Association standard for the Installation of Centrifugal Fire Pumps, NFPA No.20 (Centrifugal Fire Pumps 2013 Edition).
This controller is designed to be used with non-approved engine, using the control by analog senders (Magnetic pickup, oil pressure and engine temperature senders, all shown using on-screen gauges on the ViZiTouch. Find more information on the senders section of this manual.
Location
The controller shall be located as close as practical to the engine/motor it controls and shall be within sight of the engine/motor. The controller shall be located or protected such that it will not be damaged by water escaping from pump or pump connections. Current carrying parts of the controller shall be not less than 12 in. (305 mm) above the floor level.
The controller is suitable for use in locations subject to a moderate degree of moisture, such as a damp basement. The pump room ambient temperature shall be between 39°F (4°C) and 104°F (40°C) (If a temperature option is included, see the rating label for maximum temperature).
The standard controller enclosure is rated IP 55. It is the installer's responsibility to insure that either the standard enclosure meets the ambient conditions or that an enclosure with an appropriate rating has been provided. Controllers must be installed inside a building and they are not designed for outside environment. The paint color may change if the controller is exposed to ultraviolet rays for a long period of time.
Mounting
The fire pump controller shall be mounted in a substantial manner on a single incombustible supporting structure. Wall mounted controllers shall be attached to the structure or wall using all four (4) mounting ears provided on the controller with hardware designed to support the weight of the controller at a height not less than 12 in. (305 mm) above floor level. Floor mounted controllers shall be attached to the floor using all holes provided on the mounting feet with hardware designed to support the weight of the controller. The mounting feet provide the necessary 12 in. (305 mm) clearance for current carrying parts.
Storage
If the controller is not installed and energized immediately, Tornatech recommend following the instructions from the chapter 3 of the NEMA ICS 15 standard.
Wiring and Connections
Electrical Connections
A licensed electrician must supervise the electrical connections. The dimension drawings show the area suitable for incoming power and motor connections. No other location shall be used. Only watertight hub fittings shall be used when entering the cabinet to preserve the IP rating of the cabinet. The installer is responsible for adequate protection of the fire pump controller components against metallic debris or drilling chips. Failure to do so may cause injuries to personnel, damage the controller and subsequently void warranty.

Warning After 2 years of service, the Vizitouch battery may become less efficient and could lose the time after a shutdown.
Alarm Bell
The alarm bell is activated under default faulty conditions and under optional or user defined conditions.
Any of these conditions will energize the alarm bell but may be silenced, by pressing on the “Alarms / Silence”
membrane button. When silenced, the alarm bell restarts ringing if a new fault occurs or if the alarm conditions remain unchanged after 24 hours. The alarm bell automatically stops ringing if alarm conditions are not present anymore. Note: other external conditions may trigger optional conditions depending of the factory settings. Verify drawings affixed inside the cabinet.
Default Conditions :
- Engine Overspeed
- Engine Low Oil Pressure
- Engine High Coolant Temperature
- Engine Fail to Start
- Battery Failure 1-2
- DC Failure
- AC Fail
- I/O Cards Communication Loss

Home (Membrane button)
Home
The home page displays all controller statuses and important values of the controller. All voltages, currents, engine state and status, as well as all timers and cranking sequences.
The entire background will become red if an alarm becomes active. This feature will help the user identify a problem even at a significant distance away from the controller.
A: Navigation bar which contains general information about:
- The language (the language may be changed by pressing on it)
- The page title
- The alarm banner (warning and alarm messages may be shown)
- The date and time (adjustable in the Configuration page) B: Battery charger state. It may become one of three colors and also explicitly describes the current battery charger
state. POWER UP – Green
BULK – Green OVER_CHARGE – Green FLOAT – Green CHARGER_FAIL – Red NO_AC – Red BATTERY_FAIL – Green
An orange rectangle between the battery and the charger will appear periodically. It is the boost mode. This charging mode enables the boost function on the charger, allowing a shorter charging time of the battery. Also, it allows the controller to detect a missing battery, and/or a problem with the charger.
C: Battery. The battery will be red if it is in failure and green otherwise. The first line of data shows the actual voltage of the battery in volts and the second line shows the actual current in amperage.

D: Starter gear. It represents the current step of the cranking sequence. The counter inside indicates the step remaining time, counting down from 10 to 0 seconds. As there are two cranking modes, "waiting for crank" and "cranking", the gear will alternate between yellow and green, allowing the user to know exactly the state of the cranking sequence. Between the two contactors, a counter is visible. It indicates the current step inside the cranking sequence. It will stay on a step during the 10 seconds of wait and on the 10 seconds of cranking and then will count on until the sixth step, which is the end of the cranking sequence.
E: Diesel engine. It will be grey if the engine is stopped, green if an "Engine Run" signal is detected and red if an "Overspeed" or "Fail to start" occurred, after 6 unsuccessful cranking attempts. The engine will be yellow if running in test mode.
F: Representation of the motor starting or stopping cause. A green capsule will indicate the reason why the engine is running, and a red capsule will indicate reason it is not running when it should. Possible choices are:
Local – Optional: This start cause is triggered if the engine is locally started directly from its own control panel and the option is enabled.
Manual – It receives a manual crank request from one or both of the manual crank membrane buttons while the selector switch is the "HAND" position.
Emergency – It receives a manual crank request from the emergency pushbutton. Remote manual: Manual engine starting activated by a remote start contact. Deluge: Automatic engine starting activated by a deluge valve. Remote auto: Automatic motor starting activated by remote equipment Alternative current failure – Alternative current failure will count the time following an AC Failure and at the end of a
predetermined timer, will start the engine with an Alternative current failure request when this option is enabled. A red capsule will indicate the reason why the motor is not running despite the fact that a request is being made.
Possible causes are: Fail to start – This failure happens when the controller receives a request to start, but a "Fail To Start" alarm is
active after a cranking sequence failure, thus preventing its ability to effectively start the engine until this alarm is reset.
Locked: An interlock signal is preventing the motor from running. G: Operations timers including the sequential start timer and the AC Fail timer. H, I, J, K: Please refer to chapter 6 "Configuration", the section on the sensors for detailed information on the
gauges. L, M: The "M" section shows the text: "Operate manual start test push button". It is grey when the corresponding
button is offline. When the button becomes active, the message color turns Yellow, and the button''s logo appear on screen ("L"), sending the message that the controller is ready for this test.
Screen Saver
After 5 minutes of inactivity on the ViZiTouch, the screen will dim it's brightness to 25%. After 10 minutes of
inactivity on the ViziTouch, the “Black Screen” screen saver will activate. Its goal is to expand the lifetime of the
LCD screen. The screen saver will be instantly deactivated if the engine is running or if an alarm is activated. To manually deactivate it, simply touch the screen or any membrane button. After deactivation, the screen saver will
always redirect to the “Home” page. It will also log off any user by resetting the security level to 0 and save any new
modifications to the settings.

CTRL Trouble: Important: this relay is normally energized when controller is in normal condition. The relay is de­energized when controller trouble is detected (fail safe). The controller trouble common alarm is active when one or more of these conditions are active :
- Charger Failure 1-2
- DC failure
- AC Failure: Monitors the AC power and activates on a failure.
- Battery 1-2 Fail: Monitors the status of battery 1 and activates on a failure. This occurs when the battery is disconnected, is the wrong type or is unable to be recharged. When disconnecting a battery, there will be a delay before the alarm is activated. The boost signal will be active a minute later, or more if a ghost current is detected. If there is no response from the battery, it will execute a second test 30 seconds later, and then activate the battery failure alarm.
- Charger 1-2 Fail: Monitors the state of battery charger 1 and activates on a failure. This occurs when the battery charger has a defect, is not properly powered, or is unable to provide the needed current. It will also change to Boost Fault mode if during a boost test, the voltage does not rise. A NC dry contact is also connected from the charger to the I/O Board. If this contact opens for 1 minute, the alarm will be activated. Chargers readings are not updated during cranking and/or running, due to reading instability under load. As soon as the engine returns to an idle state, all readings and failure analysis are reactivated. (Note: With the option NiCad batteries, no boost is used and there is no NC dry contact. The "Charger Fail" alarm is detected when the battery voltage goes under the float voltage and no current is detected between the charger and the battery.)
- Loss of Continuity 1-2: Activates if the engine start contactors are disconnected from the controller.
- Water Res. Low: Activates if the “Water Reservoir Low” contact input is triggered or if the analog readout of the water reservoir is enabled and is lower than the water reservoir low set point in the “Water Level” sensor page.
- Water Res. Empty: Activates if an external contact triggers the optional “Water Reservoir Empty” input.
- Main Relief Valve Open: Activates if an external contact triggers the optional “Main Relief Valve Open” input.
- Fuel Tank Leak: Activates if the “Fuel Tank Leak” contact input is triggered.
- Low Fuel Level: Activates if the “Low Fuel Level” contact input is triggered or if the analog readout of the fuel level is enabled and goes lower than the low fuel level set point in the “Fuel Level” sensor page.
- High Fuel Level: Activates if the “High Fuel Level” contact input is triggered or if the analog readout of the fuel level is enabled and goes higher than the high fuel level set point in the “Fuel Level” sensor page.
- Engine Fail When Running: Activates if the “Engine is running” signal is lost while the engine is running. The engine will try to start the cranking sequence once again if the starting causes are not back to normal.
- Engine Fail to Start: Activates if the engine fail to start after the complete 6 attempts crank sequence. The engine will turn red.
- Engine High Temperature: Activates if the specific “High Temp” input is triggered on the engine connector strip and the engine is running. This alarm will stop the engine only if triggered during a manual run test.
- Engine Low Temperature: Activates if the specific “Low Temp” input (15) is triggered on the engine connector strip.
- Engine Low Oil Pressure: Activates if the specific “Low Oil Pressure” input is triggered on the engine connector strip and the engine is running. This alarm will stop the engine only if triggered during a manual run test.
- Engine Overspeed*: Activates if the speed read is higher than the set Overspeed value and the engine is running. This alarm will stop the engine only if triggered during a manual run test.

- I/O_expX-inX alarm: Activates if the specific expansion programmable input on the specific expansion board is activated and triggered.
- Battery1-2 Overvoltage: Activates if the voltage of the specific battery is higher than the specified overvoltage set point.
- I/O Diesel Communication Error: Activates if no communication with the diesel I/O board could be established for 15 seconds. This alarm is critical and triggers the bell. If this alarm persists for more than 1 minute the controller will reboot to try and fix the problem.
- I/O Expansion Communication Error: Activates if no communication with the Expansion I/O board could be established for 15 seconds.
- Communication System Failure: Activates when the communication task has stopped responding. This alarm condition is critical and will be followed by a controller reboot to try and fix the problem.
- File System Failure: Activates when a file system error is detected. This alarm condition is critical and will be followed by a controller reboot to try and fix the problem.

This page is used to calibrate all analog currents. The first number right beside the Battery 1 and Battery 2 text shows the actual current reading. First, Set the CB3 Breaker in the OFF position. This will disconnect the battery. Press the ZERO button. Then, put the CB3 breaker back in the ON position. Connect a small charge to the 6 and 11 terminals, to create a low current around 2600 mA. Enter this value in the most left field of battery 1, and press the Read button. Then, connect a bigger charge to the 6 and 11 terminals, around 8800 mA. Write the measured value in the second text field, and press the second read button. Finally, press the COMPUTE button to complete the calibration. Repeat for the second battery, linked to CB4 Breaker and terminals 8 and 11.
This page is used to adjust the calibration of the battery test. Number of Missing Test Before Alarm : It is the number of consecutive fail test that must occurred before triggering
the Battery Failure alarm. Battery Missing Current Threshold : It is the threshold, in Amps, to test if a battery is connected. This is the amount
that the current in Amps has to rise during a boost test to determine that the battery is connected. If a false battery failure alarms appears, it may be necessary to lower this value.
Max Current for Boost Test : Under this current value in Amps, no test on the battery is made.

Update Program Page
This procedure is highly important and must be attempted with care. Please make sure to contact the factory prior to using the Update Software function.
Factory Settings
Config > Advanced > Factory Settings
This page is only avalable if one or more Expansion Board is installed as an option. The factory settings are always pre-configured at the factory and set the main parameters of the controller. Left Section: Automatic Controller – Non-Automatic Controller: An automatic controller will respond to automatic start requests,
like a pressure drop announced by a pressure transducer or a pressure switch, a deluge valve signal or a remote automatic start trigger. A non-automatic controller will only start the engine on manual requests.
2VIZ004 – 2VIZ016: These refer to older version of the IO Diesel Board. If the controller hosts one of these version, the corresponding check box must be activated.
“Reset to Factory Settings”: This button redirects to the “Reset to Factory Settings” page. This is a major operation
that must be used with care and only if the factory was contacted first. See the “Reset to Factory Settings” help for
more details.

Page 31
Right Section: The first two settings set the nominal AC and DC voltage for the controller. Technical information about the controller: Serial Number, Battery Charger Type, Model Name and Software
Revision.
Reset to Factory Settings Page
This page will reset the ViZiTouch to the original factory configuration, thus clearing all subsequent configurations performed during the life of the controller.
This procedure should only be used as a last attempt to bring back the controller to a usable state.
User “Level 2”: The “RESET” button will be activated (will become blue) only if no square buttons from the left column are activated
and the “Last Saved Settings” from the right column is not activated as well. A “Level 2” user can only reset the
“Factory Settings” and/or the “Additional Settings” from the right column.
The “Factory Settings” reset will restore the controller to its original factory configuration and service state. This means that the first service will be undone, automatic mode settings, as well as the controller’s “Homepage” will be
deactivated until “First Service” is completed again. Please refer to the “Quick Start-Up” guide for more information on how to perform the “First Start-Up” and how to complete the “Field Acceptance Test Report”.
Please note that all logs, pump curves and statistics will not be reset.
The “Additional Settings” reset will update the controller with an additional configuration sent by the manufacturer. It does not perform a true “Factory Reset”. Its purpose is to allow an update of configuration variables that can only be
updated by Tornatech Inc.
All other square buttons on this page are “Level 9” security and can only be used by certified Tornatech representatives, unless otherwise specified. The first square in the upper left corner performs the “Select all”
function for these parameters.

The Sensors Pages
Important Notice!
Every analog sensor cable used for this controller should be shielded. The shield has to be grounded on the motor side. Not complying to these recommendations may affect the controller good functioning and void its warranty.
H) Tachometer (Engine Speed Switch)
The tachometer (analog speed reading) gives the possibility to support engine with no electronic speed switch. The magnetic pickup must be connected to the MP+MP- inputs on the I/O Board.
The first small green line and small red line on the gradations shows the Set point of the “Engine Run” Signal. When the engine runs with a speed above this threshold, the ViZiTouch will consider it is running, and when it slows down under the red line, it will be considered stopped. The second red line, usually set high on the gauge, represents the “Overspeed” threshold. If the engine reaches that speed, the “Overspeed” alarm will be activated.
The rectangle box below the gauge is the odometer, showing the run time of the engine since the first startup. Pressing on the gauge will bring the user to the “Config > Advanced > Engine Speed” page.
32
Page 33
The left section is use to show the “Disable/Enable” state of the engine RPM Counter. The “teeth” input box allows
the user to match the number of teeth on the flywheel. This is an important setting to allow a precise calculation of the RPM. The digital RPM value is shown just under to acknowledge the calculated RPM.
The right section’s purpose is to configure the set points of both “Engine Run” and “Overspeed” signal. The top square box enables/disables the “Overspeed” alarm, and should always be activated. The following square box
links the alarm bell to the alarm, and the third one sets the signal category (alarm or warning). The “SET” input field
sets the trigger threshold for the “Overspeed” alarm. The next two input fields allows the configuration of the “Engine Run” signal set/reset points, preventing the “Engine Run” signal to toggle too fast. “Reset” should be at
least 300 RPM lower than the “Set” point.
I) Engine Coolant Temperature
The “Engine coolant temperature” analog input gives the possibility to support engine with no electronic “Low-High Engine Temperature” switch. The sender must be connected to the AI5 analog inputs on the I/O Board.
The first small green line and small red line on the gradations shows the Set point of the “Low Engine Temperature”
Signal. It is active if the temperature goes below the set point and the engine must not be running. The second small green line and small red line on the gradations shows the Set point of the “High Engine
Temperature” Signal. It is active if the temperature goes above the set point and the engine must be running. The rectangle box below the gauge displays the actual value. Pressing on the gauge will bring the user to the “Config > Advanced > Engine Temperature” page.
33
Page 34
The left section is use to show the “Installed” state of the Engine Temperature Sender. The rest of the page is
already explained in the “Analog sensors” section of the manual.
If the “Calibration Type” is selected to be “Log. Resistor”, the bottom section will allow the user to directly change the “Gain” and Offset” value, depending on the sender’s model. The “Fixed Resistor” value is linked to the hardware
resistor installed between the “+” and the “IN” inputs of the corresponding analog input.
J) Engine Oil Pressure
The “Engine Oil Pressure” analog input gives the possibility to support engine with no electronic “Low Oil Pressure”
switch. The sender must be connected to the AI3 analog inputs on the I/O Board. The first small green line and small red line on the gradations shows the Set point of the “Low Oil Pressure” Signal.
It is active if the pressure goes below the set point and the engine must not be running. The rectangle box below the gauge displays the actual value. Pressing on the gauge will bring the user to the “Config > Advanced > Oil Pressure” page
34
Page 35
The left section is use to show the “Installed” state of the Oil Pressure Sender. The rest of the page is already
explained in the “Analog sensors” section of the manual.
If the “Calibration Type” is selected to be “Lin. Resistor”, the bottom section will allow the user to directly enters the
First point (resistor-pressure) and Second point (resistor-pressure) values, depending on the sender’s model. The “Fixed Resistor” value is linked to the hardware resistor installed between the “+” and the “IN” inputs of the
corresponding analog input.
K) Fuel Level
The “Fuel Level” analog input gives the possibility to support engine with no electronic “Low-High Level;” switch. The sender must be connected to the AI4 analog inputs on the I/O Board.
The first small green line and small red line on the gradations shows the Set point of the “Low Fuel Level” Signal. It is active if the level goes below the set point.
The second small green line and small red line on the gradations shows the Set point of the “High Fuel Level”
Signal. It is active if the Level goes above the set point. The rectangle box below the gauge displays the actual value.
Pressing on the gauge will bring the user to the “Config > Advanced > Fuel Level” page.
The left section is use to show the “Installed” state of the Fuel Level Sensor. The rest of the page is already explained in the “Analog sensors” section of the manual.
If the “Calibration Type” is selected to be “ON/OFF” (to be use with powered low fuel level switch), the frame at the
bottom of the page will be empty, and a “NO/NC” setting will be available to configure the signal.
Details of the Debug Page
Calibration
Config > Advanced > Debug > Calibration
This table displays all calibration parameters. The “Scaled” value is the final calculated value used in the ViZiTouch.
