What is the Pump Boss? •
The Pump Boss is a dual pump controller designed to replace more expensive and complex PLC Designs.
•
Capable of complex pump control with a variety of controller algorithms.
•
In its most basic operation the Pump Boss can be used as a single or dual channel timer with up to eight daily events, weekly timer with multiple days and multiple events or a duration timer with a single event that repeats (useable for example as a 14, 28 90 day timer). Each channel is programmable so a dual timer based program can be run from a Pump Boss.
•
When used with a flow verification device, Pump Boss can control the pump in gallons per hour and totalize flow. Again the Pump Boss can control two pumps independently or when used together; powerful dual pump capabilities are possible such as an automatic switch over feature or the ability to use two pumps in a base and trim combination.
•
If a process flow meter is added the Pump Boss can become a powerful process controller allowing you to proportionally dose two separate process flows at separate dose rates, or a single process flow with two separate dose rates, or when coupled with our auto-switch over a single flow with a single dose rate but with automatic pump redundancy. The proportional flow concentration can be displayed in ppm or as a percentage of the flow.
What is the Pump Boss? •
The Pump Boss is also an excellent local control station for pumps in a plant. It allows for remote start stop, 4-20 mA follower, alarm if pump/s fail and indication of pumps running.
•
W e have advanced remote trigger capabilities that allow you to use a contact closure to initiate the start up of the Pump Boss . You can chose simple remote on off, activation after a number of contact closures, activation after a duration of a contact being closed and then when activated the response being just turning on, dosing a specific volume, or proportional dosing in ppm.
•
Keep in mind that the Pump Boss has the ability to run two pumps separately. This means you can use the Pump Boss to run two completely different regimes such as channel one dosing proportionally to a flow and the second channel doing simple on off timer control. Also with the inclusion of 2 powered relays for each channel the relay can be used to power valves or other devices to accomplish things like boiler blow down.
•
The Pump Boss is also designed to provide 4-20 mA control signals as well as pulse control. This allows you to use the Pump Boss with larger capacity pumps that may have speed control via a VFD or DC drive.
Pump Boss Features Features
• Touch Button Dual Pump Control in One Box •
Local or Remote Control with Feed Verification
• Automatic Switchover • Proportional Dosing of chemical to a process signal • Multiple Timer Control Options • Feed Rate Totalizers • Event Based Automation
Pump Boss Features • The Pump Boss has three ( 3) operational modes. • Manual: The chemical pump/s are set to a fixed pumping rate via front panel push buttons for LOCAL operation or external 4-20mA signals for REMOTE operation. Each pump is independently adjustable and not affected by system water flow. Use the manual mode when no flow meter is required. • Auto: The chemical pump/s will “follow” the input flow meter to maintain a selected set-point of ppm or % concentration( depending on controller configuration) Set-point can be adjusted via front panel buttons for LOCAL operation or external 4-20mA signals for REMOTE operation. NOTE;A flow meter input is required for auto mode operation. • Trigger: The trigger mode has various configurations to operate the controller. To “activate” the controller , an input trigger must be selected.

Pump Boss Features Features Choose BASIC OPERATION when: • You need to use timers to control your pump/s • You wish to use event based triggers like another pump starting or a change in a analog process variable. Choose ENHANCED OPERATION when : • You wish to meter chemical in proportion to a process flow • You require a combination of event based trigger and proportional flow • You are using a flow verification device with your pump • Your require auto switchover • You require a combination of timers and proportional flow
