FDR Residential Fire Pump Controllers Features FDR Residential - Simplex, Duplex Dual Setting Pressure Switch All FDR controllers are supplied with NEMA 2 enclosures. Contact factory for availability of other styles. A dual setting 15-290 PSI pressure switch is used to sense a drop in pressure which actuates the residential controller. The setting adjustment screws are used for setting the pressure range and differential. There is one set of form-C output contacts rated at 10 amps. Alarm & Status Indication Both Simplex and Duplex controllers are equipped with illuminated pushbuttons which have dual use. The green “POWER ON” pushbutton functions as the “Start” pushbutton and indicates when the circuit breaker is closed. The red “PUMP RUNNING” pushbutton functions as the “Stop” pushbutton and indicates when the pump is running. Product Description Eaton Cutler-Hammer Residential Fire Pump Controllers work in conjunction with single phase, electric, residential fire pumps and packages. Available as a Simplex or Duplex unit, all controllers are UL listed and meet or exceed NEMA requirements. NEMA Rated Contactors Cutler-Hammer NEMA rated Freedom Contactors are used in all FDR Residential fire pump controllers. A wide variety of coil voltages are available for domestic and international use. Product Features Sequential Start Timer A sequential start timer may be installed which is used to program a start delay after the pressure switch initiates an automatic start. In duplex controllers, a SST is standard and is wired to delay starting the second (lag) pump. The timer does not operate if starting is initiated via the start pushbutton or emergency start handle. Emergency Start Operator When the controller starts the fire pump, the red Pump Running light turns on as well as the buzzer mounted on the front panel. A mechanically operated emergency start handle activates the motor contactor independent of any electrical control circuits or pressure switch input. Mounting Bars FDR residential controllers can be supplied with optional upper and lower mounting bars. Run Period Timer The run period timer turns on whenever the controller starts due to a drop in pressure. This ensures that the pump motor is not subjected to frequent starts if the pressure switch contact repeatedly closes and opens at short time intervals because of pressure fluctuations. Standards & Certification Optional Floor Mount Legs Optional 12 inch high floor mounting legs are available upon request. The FDR Residential Fire Pump Controllers meet or exceed the requirements of Underwriters Laboratories, Underwriters Laboratories Canada, the Canadian Standards Association, and the New York City building code.
