  • Page 6: Chapter 1: System Description

    Chapter 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 a pressure of 100 psi. This pressure allows the user to take samples from a depth to 180ft.

    To operate 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.

    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 compressor is still running and water has stopped coming out of the discharge tube, the discharge time should be decreased. Pumping efficiency can be maximized by measuring the amount of fluid discharged. If the volume of fluid after one pump cycle is less than the rated volume of the pump being used, then the fill rate can be increased.

    Disconnect power source when not in use. Unit must be returned to Geotech for any service. In order to ensure a long service life, keep the Geocontrol PRO clean. Often a soft, damp cloth can be used to remove dust and dirt from the exterior surfaces of the Geocontrol Pro.

    Pro, call Geotech at 1-800-833-7958 to arrange for the equipment to be sent back to a factory authorized repair location. • If pressure can be built at the air outlet on the front of the Geocontrol Pro while the compressor is running: 11 ...
  • Page 12 o Attach the air line only and block the end. Verify the pressure gauge needle indicates an increase in pressure. Remove the blockage from the end of the air line and observe whether or not a small burst of compressed air is released. If pressure cannot be built at the end of the air line, check the air line for cuts, kinks and holes, especially at, and near, the bladder pump hose barb or compression fitting connections.
