Description
M121 – electronic pump controller
The IBO M121 controller is an electronic controller that takes full control over the operation of a single pump and at the same time protects it against the most common causes of failure. It combines automatic switching on and off of the device with an extensive security package, thanks to which the installation operates stably and the pump operates longer and safer. The clear display and the ability to calibrate to a specific pump make operation easy even for less experienced users.
For whom
- Installers and plumbers - the M121 controller simplifies starting a single pump thanks to calibration tailored to a specific device and clear operation on the display.
- Home owners with their own water intake - the controller automates the operation of a deep-well or surface pump and protects it against costly failures.
- Farms and allotment gardeners - the device monitors the operation of the pump during irrigation and filling of tanks, reacting to the water level in the intake.
- Users of installations with tanks - the controller turns the pump on and off according to the level or pressure, organizing the operation of the entire system.
Application
The M121 controller is suitable wherever a single single-phase pump is to operate independently and reliably. It works with submersible pumps in home wells, with surface pumps in home water installations and with submersible pumps in reservoirs and pumping stations. The on and off signal can be taken from probes, floats or a pressure switch, which allows it to be adapted to various installation configurations.
The device regulates the pump operation depending on the water level in the tank from which it pumps, the level in the target tank or the pressure value in the system. Thanks to this, one controller supports both simple irrigation and more complex filling and pressure increasing systems. The pump is controlled by an M121 230 V electronic controller.
Features of the M121 controller
The heart of the device is an electronic system that continuously monitors pump operation and power supply parameters. M121 offers double protection against dry running - it simultaneously analyzes the signal from liquid level probes or sensors and the current consumption of the operating pump. After an emergency shutdown, the controller automatically tries to restart, and the time of this attempt is selected depending on the type of disturbance. Operation can be performed in automatic or manual mode, depending on the needs of the installation.
The controller is enclosed in a durable plastic housing with a built-in LCD display, intended for indoor installation. The set includes measurement probes, so the device is ready to be connected in a typical installation. The most important parameters of the series are summarized below.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – M121 controller
What is the M121 controller used for?
The M121 controller is an electronic controller for automatic control of one pump and its protection. It turns the pump on and off depending on the water level or pressure in the installation and protects it against failures related to dry running and incorrect power supply.
What pumps can be connected to the M121 controller?
M121 works with single-phase deep-well, submersible and surface pumps with power ranging from 0.37 to 2.2 kW with a power supply of 1 ~ 230 V. This allows it to be used both in deep wells and in home water installations or tanks.
Does M121 protect the pump against dry running?
Yes, the controller uses double protection against dry running - it simultaneously analyzes the signal from the liquid level probes and the current consumption of the operating pump. After detecting a disturbance, the pump is turned off and the controller automatically tries to restart it.
What is the difference between the M121 controller and the M131, M21 and M31 models?
M121 is intended for single-phase pumps, while M131 supports three-phase pumps and additionally protects them against phase failure. The M21 and M31 models extend the functionality with an accumulated operating time counter, a history of the last five failures and a dynamic LCD screen presenting the current pump status. You will find the full offer in the category drivers.
Can the M121 controller be mounted outside the building?
M121 has a protection class of IP 22 and is intended for indoor installation. In installations with an outdoor pump, the controller itself should be placed indoors or in a suitable, protected enclosure.
Where to buy the M121 controller?
As a manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The IBO M121 controller can be purchased from our trading partners, installation wholesalers and authorized online distributors.
What is the warranty for the M121 controller?
IBO – 24 months (2 years) manufacturer's warranty.
