EC Fire Pump Controllers is an advanced and reliable control solution designed to meet and exceed international fire safety standards such as NFPA 20, UL, and FM. Built for superior performance, durability, and user convenience, this controller integrates cutting-edge features that provide enhanced safety, monitoring, and long-term reliability for fire pump systems.
Unlike conventional controllers that simply meet basic requirements, the EC Series Enhanced Controller delivers exceptional functionality, extended warranties, and unmatched operational lifespan — making it a top choice for industrial, commercial, and municipal fire protection systems.
Key Features of EC Fire Pump Controllers
1. Waterproof Ethernet Connection
The waterproof Ethernet interface allows seamless integration with building automation systems (BAS) and central control rooms via Modbus TCP/IP communication protocol. This enables remote monitoring, real-time status updates, and system diagnostics, ensuring fire pump systems are always under supervision.
2. Programmable Option Chassis
The programmable option chassis provides eight additional sets of remote contacts, which can be programmed for up to 29 unique conditions. This feature enhances system customization, allowing engineers and operators to tailor the controller’s performance to specific project requirements.
3. Large 5.7-Inch Color HMI Display
The controller features a large 5.7-inch color Human-Machine Interface (HMI), providing clear and intuitive visual feedback. The touch interface is glove-friendly, enabling easy operation in industrial environments or emergency situations.
4. DR Data Recorder
The integrated Data Recorder (DR) can be accessed externally without opening the control panel door, improving safety and convenience. It records 11 analog and 48 digital signals, and data can be easily transferred via any standard USB drive for analysis or maintenance reporting.
5. Long-Term Warranty and Protection
The EC Fire Pump Controller comes with an extended 5-year comprehensive warranty covering every component of the system. Additionally, it includes labor cost reimbursement and a lightning protection guarantee, ensuring complete confidence in system reliability and manufacturing quality.
6. Lightning Protection Guarantee
The controller is built with a high-resistance lightning protection system, safeguarding critical components from surge damage. The built-in surge suppression and grounding design protect sensitive electronics, ensuring uninterrupted operation even during severe weather conditions.
7. Conformal Coating for Extended Life
Each printed circuit board (PCB) is coated with a protective conformal layer that prevents corrosion and oxidation in humid or damp pump room environments. This significantly extends the service life of internal electronics and improves operational reliability.
8. Dusttight Enclosure
The NEMA 12 dusttight enclosure protects internal components from dust, moisture, and water spray, ensuring stable operation in challenging environments such as industrial plants, basements, and outdoor pump stations.
