Configuració i instal·lació

The FTVOGUE Level Controller Switch Module is designed for straightforward installation. Follow these steps carefully to ensure proper function and safety.

1. Preparing Water Level Probes

The module utilizes simple wires as water level probes. Take standard household wire and strip approximately 1 cm (0.4 inches) of insulation from the end of each wire. These stripped ends will act as the water level sensors. You will typically need three probes: a common ground probe, a low-level probe (to activate the pump), and a high-level probe (to deactivate the pump).

2. Cablejat del mòdul

The module has clearly marked terminals for power input, probe connections, and relay output for controlling the pump. Refer to the image below for visual guidance.

• Power Input (9-12VDC): Connect a stable 9-12VDC power supply to the designated input terminals. Ensure correct polarity (positive to +, negative to -).
• Probe Connections: Connect your prepared water level probes to the module's probe terminals. These are typically labeled 'S' (Common), 'E' (Low Level), and 'F' (High Level).
• Sortida de relé: Connect the pump's control circuit to the relay output terminals. The relay acts as a switch to turn the pump on or off. Consult your pump's wiring diagram for proper connection to the relay's normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) contacts, depending on your application.

3. Col·locació de la sonda

Position the probes within your water tank or pool according to your desired water levels:

• Common Probe (S): Place this at the lowest point in the water container, ensuring it is always submerged. This acts as the reference point.
• Low-Level Probe (E): Position this at the minimum desired water level. When the water drops below this probe, the module will detect a low level and activate the pump.
• High-Level Probe (F): Position this at the maximum desired water level. When the water rises and makes contact with this probe, the module will detect a full level and deactivate the pump.

4. Proves

After all connections are secure and probes are positioned, apply power to the module. Test the system by manually adjusting water levels or simulating them to ensure the pump activates when the water is low and deactivates when the water is full, as expected.

Instruccions de funcionament

Once properly installed and powered, the FTVOGUE Level Controller Switch Module operates automatically to maintain the desired water levels.

• When the water level drops below the Low-Level Probe (E), the module's internal relay will activate, turning on the connected pump to begin filling the container.
• The pump will continue to run until the water level rises and makes contact with the High-Level Probe (F). At this point, the module's relay will deactivate, turning off the pump.
• The module features LED indicators (typically one for power and one for relay status) to provide visual feedback on its operational state.

Manteniment

To ensure long-term reliable operation of your FTVOGUE Level Controller Switch Module, consider the following maintenance tips:

• Inspecció de la sonda: Periodically inspect the water level probes for corrosion, mineral buildup, or damage, especially in hard water environments. Clean probes as necessary using a non-abrasive material to ensure accurate electrical contact.
• Comprovació de la connexió: Regularly check all electrical connections to the module and pump for tightness and signs of wear or corrosion.
• Condicions ambientals: Ensure the module is kept dry and free from excessive dust or debris. Protect it from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations.
• No hi ha peces reparables per l'usuari: The module contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to open, modify, or repair the module yourself, as this will void any warranty and may pose a safety risk.

Resolució de problemes

If you encounter issues with your FTVOGUE Level Controller Switch Module, refer to the following troubleshooting guide:

Problem: Pump Does Not Activate When Water Level is Low

• No Power to Module: Check the 9-12VDC power supply to the module. Ensure it is connected correctly, providing the specified voltage, and that the power source is active.
• Incorrect Probe Connections: Verify that the common (S) and low-level (E) probes are correctly wired to the module and are properly submerged or exposed as required.
• Corroded Probes: Inspect the probes for heavy corrosion or mineral buildup that might prevent electrical contact. Clean them if necessary.
• Connexió de la bomba: Check the pump's power supply and its connection to the module's relay output. Ensure the pump itself is functional.

Problem: Pump Does Not Deactivate When Water Level is High

• Incorrect High-Level Probe Connection: Verify that the high-level (F) probe is correctly wired and positioned to make contact with the water at the desired maximum level.
• Corroded Probes: Inspect the high-level probe for corrosion or buildup that might prevent electrical contact.
• Common Probe Issue: Ensure the common (S) probe is continuously submerged and making good contact.

Problem: Module LEDs Are Not Illuminating

• Sense energia: Double-check the 9-12VDC power input. Look for loose connections, a faulty power supply, or incorrect polarity.
