Software Features

The iQpump® integrated pump specific software allows the operator to quickly set up specific control values for a wide rante of applications. The controller then automatically adjusts pump operation as the system variables change while still maintaining optimum pump performance and protection.

  • Programmable Set Point & Scaling... 12 different plain text engineering units are avilable, including PSI and GPM
  • Control Pressure, Start Level & Start Time... flexibility to start the pump at different feedback levels or use the integrated timer to eliminate cycling.
  • Sleep Mode Minimum Flow Protection... protects and shuts down the pump at low speeds or in low flow conditions.
  • No Flow Detection... separate from Sleep Mode, this detects changes in motor RPM relative to sudden changes in pressure or flow; protecting against broken pipe, excessive well drawdown or run-dry conditions.
  • Pre-Charge Control... this programmable feature eliminates water hammer and extends system life by gradually filling a pipe line before normal full pressure and flow operation. Motor speed can be controlled with a system timer, level or pressure control device to indicate when normal operation may begin.
  • Thrust Bearing Control... protects the bearings of submersible motors by ensuring start up speeds and times meet manufacturer's recommendations.
  • Automatic System Restart... programmable timers allow the iQpump® to automaticalloy restart the system in Auto Mode for faults relating to brown out's, no power, power spikes, and dry well.
  • Friction Loss Compensation... automatically adjusts to overcome increased friction loss due to increased flows.
  • Low & High Pressure Feedback Detection... iQpump® continously monitors the system feedback device to provide a warning alarm or fault based on programmed level.
  • Multi-Pump Operations... iQpump® systems can be set up to automatically control two or more pumps to meet specific demands.
  • Multiplex Automatic Stabilization... iQpump® automatically balances multi-pump systems to stabilize performance and reduce cycling.
  • Pump Fault and Alarms... iQpump® provides a comprehensive set of pump related alarms and faults. Faults are displayed on the keypad in clear text to eliminate confusion.
