Product Description Full Voltage Starting Electric Fire Pump Controllers Description—Firetrol® FTA1000 Full Voltage Fire Pump Controllers are intended for use with electric motor driven fire pumps where the capacity of the power source permits full voltage starting. Full voltage is applied to the motor as soon as the controller is actuated. The controller monitors, displays and records fire pump system information. Full voltage starting is simple and low cost and is preferred whenever the utility or emergency generator set will permit this type of starting. Approvals—Firetrol fire pump controllers are listed by Underwriters' Laboratories, Inc., in accordance with UL218, Standard for Fire Pump Controllers, CSA, Standard for Industrial Control Equipment, and approved by Factory Mutual. They are built to meet or exceed the requirements of the approving authorities as well as NEMA and the latest editions of NFPA 20, Installation of Centrifugal Fire Pumps, and NFPA 70, National Electrical Code.

The controller monitors, displays and records fire pump system information. When the controller is actuated by the pressure switch, START pushbutton, deluge valve contact, etc., the first contactor closes, connecting one of the motor windings to the line. During starting, the motor will draw approximately 65% of its normal locked rotor current and develop approximately 42% of its normal starting torque. After a time delay, the second contactor closes, connecting the second winding in parallel with the first. The motor then draws its normal running current and develops its rated torque.

The controller monitors, displays and records fire pump system information. When called to run, the motor will accelerate along a ramp beginning at 40% of normal starting current with 15% of full voltage torque. When stopping, the motor will ramp down to a preset level and allow for a restart, limiting stress in the piping system. If no additional starting causes are present, the motor will continue to ramp down to a full stop. This controller helps to reduce water hammer in the system.

The pressure transducer shall be directly pipe mounted to a bulkhead pipe coupling without any other supporting members. Field connections shall be made externally at the controller coupling to prevent distortion of the pressure switch element and mechanism. Operation A digitally set On Delay (Sequential Start) timer shall be provided as standard. Upon a call to start, the user interface shall display a message indicating the remaining time value of the On Delay timer. The controller shall be field programmable for manual stop automatic stop. If set for automatic stopping, the controller shall allow the user to select either a Minimum Run Timer or an Off Delay Timer. Both timers shall be programmable through the user interface. The controller shall be fully programmable to allow up to 8 custom alarm messages to be displayed on the user interface. A nonadjustable restart delay timer shall be provided to allow the residual voltage of the motor to decay prior to restarting the motor. At least 2 seconds, but no more than 3 seconds, shall elapse between stopping and restarting the pump motor. A weekly test timer shall be provided as standard. The controller shall have the ability to program the time, date, and frequency of the weekly test. In addition, the controller shall have the capability to display a preventative maintenance message for a service inspection. The message text and frequency of occurrence shall be programmable through the user interface. A Lamp Test feature shall be included. The user interface shall also have the ability to display the status of the system inputs and outputs. The controller shall not start the fire pump motor under a single-phase condition.
