SJE RHOMBUS IFS Single Phase Duplex Capacitor Instructions

SJE RHOMBUS IFS Single Phase Duplex Capacitor

The IFS duplex capacitor (start/run) control panel utilizes an innovative circuit board design to control two alternating 120/208/240V single phase pumps in water and sewage applications. IFS panels feature an easy-to-use touch pad on inner door for programming and system monitoring. The alternating action equalizes pump wear. In addition, this system provides override control should either pump fail. The panel configuration can be easily converted in the field to either a timed dose or demand dose. Available with the EZconnex® float system. The panel can utilize the C-Level™ sensor for continuous level monitoring. It senses the level in the tank and sends a signal to the panel. Pump activation levels can be adjusted by using the panel touch pad. C-Level™ CL40 sensor operating range is 3-39.9 inches (7.6-101.3 cm). C-Level™ CL100 operating range is 3-99.5 inches (7.6-252.7 cm).
NOTE: SJE Rhombus will warranty motor start kit components supplied by SJE Rhombus for one year. SJE Rhombus makes no warranty of any type with respect to motor start kits supplied by the customer.

TOUCHPAD FEATURES

• A. Level Status indicators illuminate when floats or set points are activated; an alarm will activate if a float operates out of sequence
• B. HOA (Hand-Off-Automatic) buttons control pump mode with indication; Hand mode defaults to Automatic when stop level or redundant off level is reached
• C. Pump Run indicators will illuminate when pumps are called to run
• D. Lead/Lag selector toggles pump operation (alternate 1-2 and 2-1)
• E. LED display for system information including level in inches or centimeters (C-Level™ only), mode, pumps elapsed time (hh: mm), events (cycles), alarm counter, float error count, timed dose override counter (timed dose only), and ON/OFF times (timed dose only)
• F. NEXT push button toggles display
• G. UP and SET push buttons set pump ON/OFF times (timed dose only) and activation levels (C-Level™ only)
• Panel layout may vary with options. Reg. Cdn Pat. & TM Off C-Level™ Sensor US Patent No. 8,336,385; 8,567,242; 8,650,949

COMPONENTS

1. Enclosure base measures 18 x 16 x 8 inches (45.72 x 40.64 x 20.32 cm); NEMA 4X fiberglass for outdoor or indoor use
2. The Red LED beacon provides a 360° visual check of the alarm condition
3. The exterior Alarm Test/Normal/Silence switch allows the horn and light to be tested and the horn to be silenced in an alarm condition; the alarm automatically resets once the alarm condition is cleared (Not shown)
4. The alarm horn provides audio warning of alarm conditions (83 to 85-decibel rating) (Not shown)
5. Overload relays (optional) provide pumps overload protection (Not shown)
6. IEC motor contactors control pumps by switching electrical lines
7. Circuit breakers (optional) provide pump disconnect and branch circuit protection
8. Float and control/alarm incoming power terminal block
9. The Control Power indicator/fuse indicator light illuminates if control power is present in the panel; an alarm will activate if the control fuse is blown
10. The alarm Power indicator/fuse indicator light illuminates if alarm power is present in the panel
11. Large pump/incoming power terminal block
12. Terminal block float and control/alarm incoming power wiring label
13. Cap kits
14. Ground lugs

Note: Options, voltage, and amp range selected may change enclosure size and component layout.
Note: Schematic/Wiring Diagram and Pump Specification Label are located inside the panel.

high water alarm and/or redundant off floats. Pump down applications only.

NOTE: Pump down applications only. Industry practices suggest that a secondary device, such as a float switch,
be used for redundant activation of the high-level alarm and pump shut off when using the C-Level™ sensor.

ENCLOSURE UPSIZE:
If you selected one or more of the options, add a one-time charge for enclosure upsize.
