Page 5: Introduction
INTRODUCTION Tornatech J ockey Pump Controllers are intended for use with fire pump systems. They are used for pres- sure maintenance in fire pump installations to prevent unnecessary cycling of the main fire pump. They are listed by Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc., in accordance with UL508A, Standard for Industrial Controllers. They are built to meet or exceed the requirements of the approving authorities as well as NEMA and the latest edition NFPA 70 National Electrical Code. They also comply with the requirements of the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive 2014/30/EU, the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) 2014/35/EU, the Electromagnetic Compatibility Regu- lations (2016 No. 1091) and The Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations (2016 No. 1101). These instructions are intended to assist in the understanding of the installation and operation of these controllers. Read the instructions thoroughly prior to connecting or operating the controller. If there are any unanswered questions, please contact the local Tornatech representative or the factory service department.

Page 6: Installation
INSTALLATION STORAGE If the controller is not installed and energized immediately, Tornatech recommends following the instructions in chapter 3 of NEMA ICS 15. SEISMIC Jockey Pump controllers are optionally seismic approved and has been tested in accordance with the ICC-ES AC156, IBC 2015 & CBC 2013 standards. Proper installation, anchoring and mounting is required to validate this compliance report. Refer to this manual and drawings to determine the seismic mount- ing requirements and location of the center of gravity (you may need to contact factory). The equipment manufacturer is not responsible for the specification and performance of anchorage systems. The struc- tural engineer of record on the project shall be responsible for anchorage details. The equipment install- ation contractor shall be responsible for ensuring the requirements specified by the structural engineer of record are satisfied. If detailed seismic installation calculations are required, please contact the man- ufacturer for the performance of this work. ENVIRONMENT Jockey Pump controllers are intended to be installed in locations where ambient temperatures are within 4°C - 40°C and the relative humidity is controlled between 5% and 80%. Optionally, the controller can have an extended temperature of up to 55 °C and as low as -5°C, provided that the controller and the pressure water pipes are heated to prevent water freezing and damaging the electronics and the pip- ing system. They are intended for pollution degree 3 and shall be installed at an altitude of no more than 2000 meters. For abnormal installation environment, consult factory. ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) Jockey Pump controllers have been tested for the most stringent conditions for emissions (Environment B) and immunity (Environment A), hence controllers can be installed in either environment. All con- trollers variants share the same electronics and comply to those criteria without requiring additional measures. HANDLING The weight of each Jockey Pump controller is indicated on the packing label. Lightweight controllers do not require special handling instructions, while heavy controllers are equipped with lifting means and should be handled following the guidelines specified in Tornatech's document "Large Enclosure Safe Handling Requirements_PN12162021". LOCATION Consult the appropriate job plans to determine the controller mounting location. -

damaged by water escaping from pump or pump connections. Current carrying parts of the controller shall be not less than 12 in. (305 mm) above the floor level. Working clearances around controller shall comply with NFPA 70, National Electrical Code, Article 110 or C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Article 26.302 or any applicable local codes. The standard controller enclosure is rated NEMA Type 2. It is the installer’s responsibility to insure that either the standard enclosure meets the ambient conditions or that an enclosure with an appropriate rating has been provided. Controllers must be installed inside a building and they are not designed for outside environment. T he paint color may change if the controller is exposed to ultraviolet rays for a long period of time. MOUNTING WALL MOUNTING Refer to the controller dimension drawing for necessary mounting dimensions. The controller is wall mounted by using at least four (4) wall anchors, 2 anchors for the top mounting brackets and 2 anchors for the bottom mounting brackets. The brackets are dimensionally on the same centerline for ease in mounting. There should be a clearance of at least 6 inches (152mm) around the controller to allow proper air circulation around the equipment. 1. Using either the dimension print or by measuring the distance between the center lines of the lower bracket slots, transcribe this dimension on to the wall. Note: The bottom edge of the enclos- ure should be a minimum of 12” (305mm.) from the floor in case flooding of the pump room occurs. 2. Drill and put anchors into the wall for the lower mounting brackets. 3. Mark on the wall, the location of the holes in the upper mounting brackets. 4. Drill and put anchors into wall for the upper mounting brackets. 5. Install bolts and washers in lower anchors. 6. ... -
