  • Page 6: Section 1: System Description

    Section 1: System Description Function and Theory The Geocontrol PRO is a unique controller for operating down well bladder type sampling pumps. When an external 12 VDC power source is connected to the controller, the internal air compressor is capable of producing pressure up to 100 PSI (7 bar). This pressure allows the user to take samples from a depth to 180’...

  • Page 7: Section 2: System Installation

    To assemble the Geocontrol PRO, make sure the power switch is in the OFF position (rocker in down position). Plug the power input cord into a fuse protected 12V lighter receptacle on a negatively grounded system.

    DISCHARGE TIME knobs to adjust the cycle times. These knobs are located on the front face of the Geocontrol PRO below the airline pressure gauge. To the left is DISCHARGE TIME and to the right is FILL TIME. Use the radial number scales around each timer knob to adjust timer values in seconds.
  • Page 9 The air line pressure gauge can be utilized to maximize efficiency. The pressure indicated on the gauge should not exceed an equivalent depth to water pressure. 1 PSI = 2.31’ (1 bar = 1.02 m) of water. Once the bladder in the pump is empty of liquids the pressure will increase sharply. If a quick pressure increase is noticed, reduce the discharge time until the quick pressure increase is no longer noticeable.

  • Page 10: Section 4: System Maintenance

    Unit must be returned to Geotech Environmental Equipment for any service. In order to ensure a long service life, keep the Geocontrol PRO clean. A soft, damp cloth can be used to remove dust and dirt from the exterior surfaces of the Geocontrol PRO. In extreme cases, or to remove aged caked on dirt and dust, a mild soap and water solution can be applied to a soft cloth and used to clean the exterior surfaces of the Geocontrol PRO.
  • Page 11 Figure 4-1: Compressor 3. Remove the two screws that connect the solenoid to the casing. • Do not disconnect the three black wires from the solenoid; they should be long enough to allow you to set the solenoid down on a flat surface for cleaning. See Figure 4-2.
  • Page 12 8. Attach the tubing back to the compressor and the air pressure gauge. • Note that the longest piece of tubing attaches to the compressor. If you need further assistance or want to replace the breather screens call Geotech Service at 1- 800-833-7958.

  • Page 13: Section 5: System Troubleshooting

    Section 5: System Troubleshooting The Geocontrol PRO has been designed and manufactured to provide a long service life and trouble free operation in the field. If the compressor, during charge cycles, slows, check supply voltage. If the supply voltage falls below 12V, the compressor’s performance will be directly affected.
  • Page 14 Solution • Remove the air line from the front of the Geocontrol PRO. Block the air outlet on the front of the Geocontrol PRO while the compressor is running to verify the pressure gauge needle indicates an increase in pressure. Remove the blockage from the air outlet and observe whether a small burst of compressed air is released.
