    Further information for the use of the device. General Security Notes The SENECT® FILTER|CONTROL is an electronic control unit developed for controlling drum and belt filters. Since it is an electric product the common prerequisites for a safe instrument usage must be fulfilled.
  • Page 5: Intended Use

    The SENECT® FILTER|CONTROL is an electronic control unit developed for controlling drum and belt filter in industrial applications. It can be combined with maximal two water level sensors (SENECT PS-300-MA or EPS-250-MA), one filter case switch, one solenoid valve (MVW-M12-SC) and one further actuator (e.g. alarm lamp VIS- LED).
  • Page 6: Getting Started

    Getting started filter mesh is clogged, the FILTER|CONTROL starts the filter motor so that the drum starts to rotate or the belt starts to move and the spray pump will be activated. The filter mesh will be flushed and all dirt particles will be washed to the outlet. Alternatively, if the is no water level sensor connected to the FILTER|CONTROL, a time controlled operation of the filter is also possible.

Check on the data sheets of your pumps, if they fit to the specifications of the FILTER|CONTROL (spray pump: 230 V AC, max. 1800 W, circulation pump: 230 V AC, max. 900 W). Plug the spray pump connector into the plug „SPRAY PUMP“...

The selection here means that the filters backwashing is triggered by an decrease of the water level (typically for gravity mode, where the sensor is installed behind the filter) or by an increase (when the sensor is installed before the filter).
  • Page 19 Filter settings  Extras Here you can select the activation of extra functions. 1. Dynamic|Mode: The Dynamic|Mode is a special algorithm which leads to a more stable clogging-induced control of the backwashing. With this mode, the backwash water level is continuously corrected for changes in the water level.
