Pentair Pentek Solar Drive Sensor Settings - Pentair PENTEK SOLAR DRIVE PSD15 Mode D'emploi

PENTAIR PENTEK
The Pentair Pentek Solar Drive controller can be turned ON or OFF remotely by using a digital
input or by using a standard float switch. There is a float switch terminal block (Figure 6 on page 8)
where digital signal wires are connected.
If Digital Inputs 1 and G experience a short circuit, the Pentair Pentek Solar Drive automatically
turns off. Similarly, if Digital Input 2 and G experience an open circuit, the Pentair Pentek Solar
Drive automatically turns off. There are numerous remote sensors that can be used: float switch,
pressure switch, flow switch, water level sensor, dry run protection, etc. Ask your dealer about
configuring sensors and switches for your application.

A typical example of how tank and well switch signals can be used with a digital input port is
shown in Figure 10. For a tank application, if the active wire is connected to Position 1 and the
return wire (usually black) is connected to Position G, then the Pentair Pentek Solar Drive will stop
the pump when the tank gets full because Terminals 1 and G will be "shorted" (active short). This
turns off the Pentair Pentek Solar Drive. See Figure 11.
For a well application, if the active wire is connected to Position 2 and the return wire (usually
black) is connected to Position G, then the Pentair Pentek Solar Drive will stop the pump when the
well runs out of water because Terminals 2 and G will be "open" (active open). This turns off the
Pentair Pentek Solar Drive.
