The VEGA PS18L Automatic Pump Pressure Controller provides automatic start/stop control for clean-water pump systems. Its digital pressure sensor monitors pipeline pressure in real time and operates the pump as water demand changes, providing a compact alternative to a traditional pressure switch, four-way valve and separate dry-run protection arrangement.
Key Features
- Digital pressure sensing with real-time LCD pressure display
- Automatic pump start and stop control as water demand changes
- Adjustable start pressure from 0.3 to 7.9 bar
- Adjustable shutdown pressure from 0.5 to 9.9 bar
- Water-shortage protection with adjustable automatic restart timing
- Leak warning after repeated short start/stop cycles
- IP65-rated enclosure for improved protection in suitable pump installations
- Compact, vertically mounted design for straightforward installation
