Electric fire pump controllers are designed to start an electric motor driven fire pump. It can either start the fire

pump manually through the local start pushbutton or automatically through the sensing of a pressure drop in the

sprinkler system. The fire pump can be stopped manually with the local stop pushbutton or automatically after the

restauration of the pressure in the sprinkler system. In both cases, stopping is only allowed if all starting causes

have disappeared.

Types of Electric Fire Pump Controllers

FIRE PUMP CATALOG NUMBER

MODEL No. EXAMPLE: HFA - 208 / 160KW / 3 / 60

Model Prefix: HFA

Voltage: 208 V

HP/KW Rating: 215HP / 160KW

Phase: 3

Frequency: 60 Hz

ACROSS-THE-LINE STARTER

MODEL HFA:

This model is intended to be used where the local utility or the capacity of the power source permits across-

the-line starting.

Full voltage is applied to the motor as soon as the controller receives a start command.

REDUCED VOLTAGE STARTERS

These models are intended to be used where the local utility or the capacity of the power source does not permit full

voltage starting.

MODEL HFS: SOLID STATE STARTER

This model does not require a multi-connection motor. It only requires 3 conductors between the controller

and the motor.

Upon a start command, a solid-state starter is utilized to supply a step less ramp-up voltage to the motor

until the motor reaches its full speed.

This controller also features a soft motor stopping mode and a hard stop mode. For a hard stop, hold the

stop pushbutton until the motor stop.

MODEL HFW: WYE-DELTA CLOSED TRANSITION STARTER

This model requires a multi-connection motor and 6 conductors between the controller and the motor.

Upon a start command, the motor is connected to the line in the wye connection. After a time delay, the

motor is reconnected to the line in the Delta configuration applying full voltage to the motor windings by a

closed transition switching sequence.

The power source does not « see » any open circuit during the transition from wye to delta. During the

transition from Wye to Delta, a resistor bank is connected in the starting circuit and allows to keep the motor

coils energized. An 80 second delay is then triggered and prevent the motor from stoping. This delay allows

the resistors to cool down and will only be triggered if the transition occur. An emergency stop can still be

perform by pulling the disconnecting mean handle.

MODEL HFY: WYE-DELTA OPEN TRANSITION STARTER

This type of starter requires a multi-connection motor and 6 conductors between the controller and the

motor.

Introduction

Upon a start command, the motor is connected to the line in the Wye connection. After a time delay, the

motor is reconnected to the line in the Delta configuration applying full voltage to the motor windings. This

controller is of the open transition type. The motor is disconnected from the line during the transition from

start (wye) to run (delta) mode.

Methods of Starting/Stopping

The controllers are available as combination automatic / non-automatic with provision for manual or automatic

shutdown (an automatic shutdown is only possible after an automatic start).

METHODS OF STARTING

MANUAL START

The motor can be started by pressing the START push button, regardless of the system pressure.

REMOTE MANUAL START

The motor can be started from a remote location by momentarily closing a contact of a manual push button.

REMOTE AUTOMATIC START, DELUGE VALVE START

The motor can be started from a remote location by momentarily opening a contact connected to an automatic

device.

SEQUENTIAL START

In case of a multiple pump application, it may be necessary to delay the automatic (pressure drop) starting of each

motor to prevent simultaneous starting of all motors.

TEST START

The motor can be started manually by pressing the run test button.

METHODS OF STOPPING

MANUAL STOP

Manual stop is done by pressing the priority STOP push button. Note that pressing the stop push button will

prevent the motor from restarting as long as the button is pressed, plus a two second delay.

AUTOMATIC STOP

Automatic stop is possible only after an automatic start and if this function has been activated. When this function

is enabled, the motor is automatically stopped 10 minutes after the starting request is no longer present.

The HFX electric fire pump controller is intended to be installed in accordance with the European Standard EN

12845, Fixed firefighting systems –Automatic sprinkler system –Design, installation and maintenance.

Location

The controller shall be located as close as practical to the engine/motor it controls and shall be within sight of the

engine/motor. The controller shall be located or protected such that it will not be damaged by water escaping from

pump or pump connections. Current carrying parts of the controller shall be not less than 12 in. (305 mm) above the

floor level.

The controller is suitable for use in locations subject to a moderate degree of moisture, such as a damp basement.

The pump room ambient temperature shall be between 39°F (4°C) and 104°F (40°C) (If a temperature option is

included, see the rating label for maximum temperature).

The standard controller enclosure is rated IP55. It is the installer's responsibility to insure that either the standard

enclosure meets the ambient conditions or that an enclosure with an appropriate rating has been provided.

Controllers must be installed inside a building and they are not designed for outside environment. The paint color

may change if the controller is exposed to ultraviolet rays for a long period of time.

Mounting

The fire pump controller shall be mounted in a substantial manner on a single incombustible supporting structure.

Wall mounted controllers shall be attached to the structure or wall using all four (4) mounting ears provided on the

controller with hardware designed to support the weight of the controller at a height not less than 12 in. (305 mm)

above floor level. Floor mounted controllers shall be attached to the floor using all holes provided on the mounting

feet with hardware designed to support the weight of the controller. The mounting feet provide the necessary 12 in.

(305 mm) clearance for current carrying parts.

Storage

If the controller is not installed and energized immediately, Tornatech recommend following the instructions from the

chapter 3 of the NEMA ICS 15 standard.

Wiring and Connections

Electrical Wiring

The electrical wiring between the power source and the fire pump controller shall meet the local codes. Electrical

wiring shall be typically sized to carry at least 125% of the full load current (FLC or FLA) of the fire pump motor.

Electrical Connections

A licensed electrician must supervise the electrical connections. The dimension drawings show the area suitable for

incoming power and motor connections. No other location shall be used. Only watertight hub fittings shall be used

when entering the cabinet to preserve the IP rating of the cabinet. The installer is responsible for adequate

protection of the fire pump controller components against metallic debris or drilling chips. Failure to do so may

cause injuries to personnel, damage the controller and subsequently void warranty.

Energy Consumption

Standby power: 10W

Installation

Sizing

Incoming power terminals on the controller are suitable to accept wire based on that selection with insulation not

less than 60°C. (Refer to terminal diagram for terminal sizes.)

The electrical wiring between the fire pump controller and the pump motor shall be in rigid, intermediate, or liquid

tight flexible metal conduit or Type MI cable and meet the requirements of the electrical local codes.

The number of conductors required varies depending on the model of starter:

3-wires plus ground sized at 125% of full load current for models HFA and HFS.

6-wires plus ground sized at 125% of 58% of the motor full load current for: HFY and HFW models.

Incoming Power Connections

Incoming normal power is to be connected to terminals located on the disconnecting means IS.

- For 3 phases motor: identified L1-L2 and L3.

- For single phase motor: identified L1 and L3

Motor Connections

The motor wires shall be connected to terminals identified by:

- T1-T2 and T3 are located on the main contactor (1M) for model HFA.

- T1-T2 and T3 are located on the soft starter for model HFS.

- T1-T2 and T3 are located on the contactor (1M) and T6-T4 and T5 are located on the contactor (2M) for models

HFY and HFW.

It is the responsibility of the installer to obtain connection information on the motor and to assure that the motor is

connected as per motor manufacturer recommendations. Failure to do so may cause injuries to personnel, damage

the motor and/or the controller and subsequently void warranty on both items.
