INTRODUCTION

The proprietary Start-Up Genie guides you through quick and easy commissioning. Take advantage of
the complete Genie with 11 sections to configure applications with pump protections, I/O options, and
communications. For the more straightforward applications set your motor information and operation mode
and “Autoset” the rest of the parameters. With support for the most common control configurations, the Genie
reduces set-up and configuration time to less than 15 minutes.

The Intelligent Pump Controller (IPC) Start-Up Genie allows the end-user to quickly and easily configure the
controller for pump control applications including single pump, constant slave, duplex control, speed control,
and test run mode. The Genie guides users through the 11 sections for controller configuration. The Setup
Selection screen allows the user to configure the motor, application type, inputs, outputs, pump protection
features, flow compensation, and communications.

Convenience and Simplicity

The Start-Up Genie allows complete system programming in a guided step by step format, leading users to all of
the necessary parameters for operation without manually scrolling through a complex parameter list. The simple
menu and selection screens allow for easy access to the most important sections, utilizing the navigation arrows
and the [OK] button. Several parameter sets are able to be automatically configured to the most common control
configurations, further simplifying controller set up.
While above mentioned auto preset options provide effortless configuration, the Genie provides a single
location for complete customization of parameters allowing users to tailor their controller to the specific
application intended if the autoset configurations are not suitable.

CHAPTER 6: PUMP PROTECTION (continued)

• Minimum Run Time: Set the minimum time the motor must have been running
before entering sleep mode.
• Minimum Sleep Time: Set the minimum time the motor must stay in sleep
mode.

• Flow Check Window: Flow check window is the amount of pressure increase
used in the flow check function.

• Flow Check Low Time: Flow check low time defines how long the controller will
run at the setpoint during the flow check function.

• Flow Check High Time: Flow check high time defines how long the controller
will run at Flow Check Window + setpoint during the flow check function.

• Run the No Flow Power Calibration Setup: Start of auto setup of power data for No-Flow Power tuning.

NO FLOW POWER CALIBRATION

A no flow condition can be detected
by monitoring the power consumption
of the pump. Typically a pump’s power

CHAPTER 6: PUMP PROTECTION (continued)

NO FLOW POWER CALIBRATION INSTRUCTIONS

• Select Enable to being the No Flow Power Calibration Setup

• The first screen prompts to ensure the Sleep Frequency/Low Limit and
Motor Frequency have been set. If these points are not set the No Flow Power
Calibration will not operate properly.

• The next screen prompts to close all discharge valves and to press [Hand On] to
begin the No Flow Power Calibration process. Doing this ensures the pump will
operate at no flow/shutoff. If the pump does not operate at no flow during the
setup, the calibration data will be invalid.

• The controller will now begin running the pump while monitoring the power. In the first two steps the pump
is operated at 85% of maximum speed defined at Motor Speed High Limit [Hz] and the power to the pump
is monitored and saved. The pump then operates at 50% of maximum speed and the power is monitored
and saved. The no flow power curve is then constructed within the controller based on these 2 points using
the affinity laws. The No Flow Power Calibration Set-up is now complete. The power data can be saved by
pressing [OK] and then the down arrow. If any issues were encountered during the calibration process
discard the data by pressing [Cancel] and repeat the calibration process.

• No Water/Loss of Prime Fault: No water/loss of prime fault protects the

pump by turning off the pump when a high speed and low power condition is
detected.

• No Water/Loss of Prime Limit: This is the no flow power corresponding to High

Speed. Controller scales this value based on the affinity laws to determine the
no flow power at full speed. Set this value using the No Flow Power Calibration
Setup (previous page).

• No Water/Loss of Prime Restart: No Water/Loss of Prime Restart function

allows the controller to restart after a No Water/Loss of Prime fault is detected.
If No is selected and a No Water/Loss of Prime fault is detected, the drive will
require a manual reset to clear the fault.

• No Water/Loss of Prime Restart Time: The No Water/Loss of Prime Restart

Function allows the controller to restart after a No Water/Loss of Prime fault is
detected. The Restart time is set by the parameter 13-12.3

PAGE 13
 CentriPro
Aquavar IPC Start-Up Genie

CHAPTER 6: PUMP PROTECTION (continued)

• No Water/Loss of Prime Protection Delay: The No Water/Loss of Prime
Delay time sets the time delay between detection of a No Water/Loss of Prime
condition and when the fault is issued. The pump must be running at maximum
speed while the HP is less that the No Water/Loss of Prime Limit to start the
delay timer.

• Under Pressure Function: The Under Pressure alarm/warning is issued when

the system pressure falls below the Under Pressure Limit for longer than the
Under Pressure Delay Time.

• Under Pressure Delay: Under Pressure Delay Time sets the delay before the
action set occurs when an Under Pressure condition in detected.

• Under Pressure Difference: Under Pressure Difference is the difference

between the setpoint and the actual pressure that will trigger the Under Pressure
Function. This value is set as a % of Maximum Reference/Feedback.

Under Pressure Difference Example

Given:
• Under Pressure Delay = 10 seconds
• Under Pressure Difference = 10%
• Setpoint = 50 psi
• High Feedback 1 Value = 300 psi.

When the system pressure falls below 20 psi (50 psi – (10% * 300 psi))
for more than 10 seconds, the controller will issue an Under Pressure Alarm or Warning.

• Setup Pump Protection through Digital Input 19: A pump or system

protection function can be implemented using digital input DI 19 and an
external switch. Pump Protect Alarm is active when this input is ‘O’ or Open.

• Setup Pump Protection through Digital Input 27: A pump or system

protection function can be implemented using digital input DI 27 and an
external switch. Pump Protect Alarm is active when this input is ‘O’ or Open.

• Pump Protect Delay: Pump Protect Delay sets the time between detection of a
Pump Protect Alarm condition and the issue of the Pump Protect Alarm.
