Control Panels

Type A1 The Challenge Over the years we have discovered a reoccurring problem with float switches failing prematurely when used to directly switch VGS pumps. The problem being that the float switched is not rated to switch the inductive load of the pump motor. While the float switch is rated at 10 amps electrically this refers to 10 amps resistive load only (AC1). This means that the switch usually fails within six (6) months, and due to the fact it is connected directly to the mains electricity, must be changed by an electrician. The Solution To eliminate the load to the float switch we use a contractor to switch the pump and only use the float switch to switch the tiny load of the contactor. The easy way to do this is by provision of an ISS A1 BABY STARTER control panel.
Advantages of a Control Panel for your VGS
Use of Contractor to switch pump motors up to 4.0Kw single or three phase Low voltage (24V AC) transformer for float switch Float can be changed by a non-electrician cutting and joining the cable without opening the control panel Auto-Off-Manual switch so if the float switches fails or gets jammed the pit can still be lowered by operation the pump via the manual switch A service technician can be arranged at the client's convenience. A 1.5m lead for plug in to an existing 240V outlet This can reduce the electrical install cost Save more money in future on electrician costs and breakdowns!
