Pump Starting and Sequencing
Controls
The selection of Square D NEMA, IEC and definite purpose
contactors and starters can meet just about any starting
and sequencing need you may have-while guaranteeing
conformance to both domestic and global standards.
Circuit Protection for Pump
Motors
Square D has provided overcurrent protection since
1903 and offers the broadest selection in the industry
with molded case, miniature and supplementary protection
circuit breakers. These breaker lines, whether UL
or IEC rated, are available with a complete offering
of accessories and operating mechanisms to meet your
application requirements.
Assuring Pump Performance
Under Pressure
PUMPTROL pressure switches from Square D set the standard
for accurate, reliable control of electrically driven
water pumps. We offer a complete line of devices suitable
for all types of pumps including those with high horsepower
and pressure requirements. For submersible, sump and
sewage pumps, we offer switches with electrical ratings
that provide direct control of motors. By selecting
Square D PUMPTROL products, you show the pump system
installer and owner your commitment to quality.
Additional Levels of Control
Automatic control of liquid levels in open or closed
tanks is easy with the complete range of level sensors,
float switches and accessories available from Square
D. We also offer you the option of handling small
motor loads directly or through AC or DC magnetic
starters.
Combination Starters for Pumps
Combination starters for simplex or duplex alternating
pump systems are available in multiple industry-standard
configurations including fused or non-fusible switch
and circuit breaker types. Add our world-class metal
fabrication capabilities and you get a broad variety
of enclosures for various ambient environments.
Reduced Voltage Starting to
Reduce Water Hammer
In addition to our traditional Wye-Delta reduced voltage
pump controllers, we offer a new ALTISTART 46 soft
starter with special control algorithms to reduce
water hammer. The ALTISTART 46 is the first soft start
that bases acceleration and deceleration ramping on
the motor torque rather than on current or voltage.
Compared to traditional soft starts, this improves
"torque efficiency" and reduces current requirements
and subsequent motor heating.
Pre-Packaged Solutions
Square D can also save you design and installation
time with our pre-packaged pump control solutions.
These include AC duplex motor control packages for
two pump applications where alternating between pumps
is desired to reduce wear. We also offer integrated
PUMP-Pak solutions built around our ALTIVAR variable
speed drives and engineered to meet the needs of industrial
water treatment systems. Plus our UL Service Entrance
rated WELL-GUARD pump panels are specifically designed
for pumping applications and provide space for field
installation of auxiliary equipment, a feature required
in agricultural installations.
Linking Pump Equipment to
Building Automation Systems
Square D has a variety of communication networking
solutions to meet your requirements for integrating
drives and starter controls to building management
and control systems.
Square D is recognized by
the commercial and residential installation
markets as well as industrial manufacturers as the
premier electrical supplier. By using our quality
controls on your equipment, you can be assured of
ready acceptance from your customers
