Controller for Pumps



ENTEK PG500 series pump controller controls, protects and automates single pump applications.



  • Complete solution for single pumps
  • Microprocessor-based controller protects against dry running of pumps without the need for level switches or level floaters
  • Protection for short circuit, over-current and phase-loss
  • Waterproof on-off switch
  • PG500 controller can also be used to control the tank water level with a floater switch input, or the tank pressure with a pressure switch
  • Automates applications for a more reliable and economical solution
  • Delay feature prevents frequent start-stops
  • LED indicators for Alarm and In Operation signal
  • LED indicators for High and Low Levels
  • Manual override of automatic functions
  • NEMA12 Enclosure
  • Single-phase and three-phase systems: PG500 is used for the control of up to 1.5kW single-phase or up to 4kW three phase direct online connection pumps.
    Single-phase motor capacitor can be placed in the controller box.

    Standard configuration allows the use of pressure sensor and level float switch inputs.

    Standard controller can be used for water level control with a float switch. It is also possible to connect a pressure switch to the controller, so that the pump can be used to automatically control the line pressure.

    All measurement and control functions are processed by a microprocessor. In case of a dry running condition, the controller stops the pump. It can restart the pump after a delay set by the user. In case of an over current, the controller stops the pump and waits at that state for a manual restart for safety reasons.

    Main functions:
  • Turns the pump on or off
  • Protects the motor against over current
  • Protects against phase loss
  • Short circuit protection
  • Pump protected against dry running
  • Automated operation with added external pressure switch or level float switch
  • 2 Contact outputs for external monitoring of the controller

    Operating Modes and Indicators
  • A 3-way switch located on the electronic card selects between three operating modes: Automatic, Manual On or Off.
  • LED signal lights indicate: Power on, Operating, Failure, Protection Mode, Pressure High/Low
