PUMA
PUMA
PUMA is a versatile pump control system for 1-phase or 3-phase pumps up to 12A (5.5KW), using level switches or 4-20mA analog meters for automatic operation. It features advanced flow calculations, phase sequence detection, and digital I/O for alarms, housed in an IP65 casing with a 2.4” OLED display. Communication options include 4G or NB-IoT modems, configured via AcowaZoo software.
PUMA integrates a modem for SCADA communication, Modbus TCP/IP protocol, and validated flow calculations. It offers high-level control, a power bank for power failure alarms, and varied starting levels to prevent build-up. Configuration is possible locally or remotely.
The controller calculates pump capacity and performance without external equipment, evaluating pump cycles for accurate flow and capacity data, aiding in identifying non-revenue water and system efficiency.
Includes guidelines for handling, installation, operation, and maintenance, emphasizing electric shock risks and the need to switch off power before electrical connections. Compliance with RCD legislation is required.
Designed for sewage wells or reservoirs, suitable for network and main pumping stations, commercial buildings, and municipal systems. Not for use with strong solvents or oil-containing liquids.
Requires 1x230V AC or 3x400V AC supply voltage, 50/60Hz frequency, with a maximum 16A fuse. Grounding is TT, with a power bank for voltage failure alarms.
Dimensions: 237mm x 248mm x 98mm, weight: 1350g, supports 0.5 – 6 mm² wire connections, IP65 enclosure, operating temperature: -20°C to +50°C.
Includes one analog input (0...20 mA / 4…20 mA) and two digital inputs/outputs, with 4 KV insulation voltage.
Features a 2.4” OLED display with push-button navigation, entering pause after 5 minutes of inactivity.
Connects to PC via USB or TCP for configuration, requiring driver installation on Windows 7 or 8, supporting firmware updates.
Ensure power is off before servicing to prevent electric shock. Dispose of according to local regulations, indicated by the crossed-out wheelie bin symbol.
AcowaZoo interface allows loading/saving configurations, establishing TCP connections, and updating firmware. Pump setup includes phase selection, pump current, and sensor types.

User manual PUMA About PUMA PUMA pump control is a universal compact one-pump control with the possibility of communication. PUMA can operate both 1-phase or 3-phase pumps up to 12A (5.5KW). PUMA uses either a level switch or standard 4-20mA analog level meter, where it measures the level in the well, and starts and stops the pump automatically. PUMA has integrated standard functions for inlet flow calculation, flow- and capacity calculation as well as high level control via a high level switch. PUMA has a unique function for current measurement on all 3 phases as well as phase sequence detection....

ACOWA INSTRUMENTS PUMA and advanced flow calculation: When specifying the physical design of the well, the PUMA controller subsequently calculates the following data, which are available via the SCADA-system. It is therefore possible to get a load and performance profile of the pumping stations, without having to invest in external measuring equipment for the individual stations. The PUMA controller finds the longest pump cycle for each day, calculates the capacity of the pump based on inlet time and pump-out time and saves this value as the candidate of the day. After a custom number of days,...

User manual e.g. 3-4 hours before the increased inlet flow, there would be an indirect inflow, which in most cases is due to drains or seepage of groundwater into the system. With the PUMA pump control, this data will be available for all pumping stations. It will therefore be possible to identify the areas and stations where an effort should be made, as you can now compare the individual stations in a specific area 1:1. 6 ACOWA INSTRUMENTS, Industrivej 10, 8305 Samsø - VAT-no: 36562919 – mail: [email protected] – Phone: +45 7221 79

User manual AcowaZoo Connecting to a PC USB connection PUMA connects to the PC via a Micro-USB connector on the side of the device. The AcowaZoo will then connect to the device for configuration. When the AcowaZoo program starts, it will continuously try to establish contact with a PUMA device via USB connection. TCP Connection To connect to AcowaZoo-Tool via TCP, it must first be set to the correct TCP settings (IP Address, Port, APN). This is done in the AcowaZoo via the USB port. Once the PUMA is configured correctly, then it can be accessed from the AcowaZoo via TCP. AcowaZoo Installation...
