INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR SYMCOM MODEL

231-P-INSIDER

The PumpSaver®Plus Model 231-P-INSIDER fits inside 1/3 – 1hp, 230V Franklin™, Pentek™, or CentriPro™ control boxes. PumpSavers are designed to protect single-phase pumps from dry-well, dead-head, rapid-cycling, jammed impeller, and over/undervoltage conditions. Typical applications include residential waterwells, commercial waterwells, irrigation wells, and golf course and other sprinkler systems.

CONNECTIONS

Refer to specific connection instructions depending on the particular control box being used:

CALIBRATION / SETTINGS

1.Turn RESTART DELAY/CALIBRATION to the CAL position and close the box cover.

2.Apply power to the system. The pump should run for approximately 10 seconds and then shut off—this indicates the Model 231-P INSIDER has calibrated.

3.Remove power from the system. Open the control box and set the appropriate dry-well recovery time with the RESTART DELAY / CALIBRATION knob.

4.Shut the control box and re-apply power to the system.

OPERATION

The Model 231-P-INSIDER monitors pump load in amps and kilowatts. When the current (amps) exceeds approximately 125% of calibrated current, or power (kW) drops below the adjustable underload trip point, the 231-P-INSIDER—after the trip delay—will turn off the pump. The 231-P- INSIDER will automatically restart the pump after the selected restart delay time.

The calibration is stored in permanent memory. The PumpSaver®Plus does not need to be recalibrated if power is lost.

SENSITIVITY

The Model 231-P-INSIDER has an adjustment knob to set the underload trip sensitivity. Setting SENSITIVITY to the middle position (straight up) is equivalent to SymCom’s standard underload trip level. Adjust the SENSITIVITY knob to increase/decrease underload sensitivity up to approximately ±10% of the standard trip. It may be necessary to increase the sensitivity if the PumpSaver®Plus does not trip on dry-run or dead-head or it is known that the water level in the well is very low relative to the pumps capabilities.

WARNING: Decreasing the SENSITIVITY may compromise the PumpSaver’s ability to detect dry-run and/or dead-head conditions.

RUN HOURS

The Model 231-P-INSIDER records pump run hours. Run hours can be displayed by a PumpSaver®Plus Informer (see USING AN INFORMER). Run hours can be reset on the 231-P- INSIDER.—please read the instruction fully before performing the procedure.

NOTE: Turn the SENSITIVITY knob completely to the left (counter-clockwise) or completely to the right (clockwise) when directed.

WARNING: ENSURE POWER IS APPLIED TO THE 231-P-INSIDER IN A SAFE MANNER WHEN PERFORMING THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE.

To Reset Run Hours:

1.Remove power to the 231-P-INSIDER.

2.Set the RESTART DELAY/CALIBRATION knob to RESET and the SENSITIVITY knob to the middle (12:00) position.

3.Apply power to the 231-P-INSIDER—the CAL. LIGHT will turn on.

4.Turn the SENSITIVITY knob to the right—the CAL. LIGHT will turn off and the RUN LIGHT will turn on.

5.Turn the SENSITIVITY knob to the left—both lights will turn on.

6.Turn the SENSITIVITY knob to the right.

7.After 10 seconds, the CAL. and RUN LIGHTS will blink twice indicating the run hours have successfully been reset.

RAPID CYCLING

Rapid cycling is defined as more than 4 restarts in a 60-second period. Upon detecting rapidcycling, the 231-P-INSIDER will lock-out until power is removed and re-applied. Rapid-cycle protection can be disabled. Please read the instructions fully before performing the procedure.

NOTE: Turn the SENSITIVITY knob completely to the left (counter-clockwise) or completely to the right (clockwise) when directed.

WARNING: ENSURE POWER IS APPLIED TO THE 231-P-INSIDER IN A SAFE MANNER WHEN PERFORMING THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE.

To Disable Rapid-Cycle Protection: (to re-enable, follow the same procedure)

1.Remove power to the 231-P-INSIDER.

2.Set the RESTART DELAY/CALIBRATION knob to RESET and the SENSITIVITY knob to the middle (12:00) position.

3.Apply power to the 231-P-INSIDER—the CAL. LIGHT will turn on.

4.Turn the SENSITIVITY knob to the right—the CAL. LIGHT will turn off, RUN LIGHT on.

5.Turn the SENSITIVITY knob to the left—both lights will turn on.

6.Turn the SENSITIVITY knob rightleftrightleftright.

7.After 10 seconds, the CAL. and RUN LIGHTS will blink twice.

USING AN INFORMER

The Model 231-P-INSIDER is equipped with an infrared LED that will communicate to a SymCom Informer—a handheld, battery-operated, diagnostic tool. An Informer IR Kit is required for the 231- P-INSIDER to communicate to the Informer. The Informer will display real-time voltage, current and power; dry-well and overload trip points; calibration voltage; last 20 faults; voltage, current and power at the last fault; highest/lowest voltage and current since calibration; the model number; and the CT size if applicable. The Informer can be used on any single-phase PumpSaver® equipped with an infrared LED transmitter—Models 111and 231-Insiders; 231-P Insider; 112and 232-Insiders; 111; 233-1.5 (-P); 233 (-P); 234; and 235.
