Description
M31 controller – intelligent controller for three-phase pumps with operation history
The IBO M31 controller is a professional, electronic controller for controlling the operation of a single three-phase pump and its comprehensive protection. It automates switching the pump on and off depending on the water level or pressure, and additionally records the accumulated operating time and the history of the last five failures. Effective protection against dry running works even without installing probes in the well, and the dynamic display constantly shows the installation status, which facilitates supervision and diagnostics.
For whom
- Installers and electricians - the M31 controller facilitates diagnostics thanks to failure history recording and an operating time counter, which shortens the service time of the three-phase pump.
- Owners of houses and farms with intake from a well - the controller automates the water supply and protects the pump against costly failures.
- Agricultural and horticultural farms - the device supervises the operation of the pump for irrigation of fields, greenhouses and gardens, as well as for rainwater management.
- Facilities with pumping stations and tanks - the controller turns the pump on and off according to the level or pressure, and uses an overflow probe to warn about tank overflow.
Application
The M31 controller is suitable wherever a single three-phase pump is to operate automatically and the user wants to have insight into its operation. It works with submersible pumps when supplying water from wells, with surface pumps in water supply installations and with submersible pumps in tanks, septic tanks and drainage systems. The switch-on and switch-off signal comes from level probes, floats or a pressure switch cooperating with the hydrophore tank.
The device controls the pump as a function of the water level in the tank from which it is pumping, the level in the target tank or the pressure in the system, and the recording of operating time and fault history facilitates ongoing supervision and the process of possible service. It is used in houses, apartments, summer houses, farms and industrial installations. Automatic and safe control of the three-phase pump is provided by the intelligent M31 400 V controller.
Features of the M31 controller
The heart of the device is an electronic system with a dynamic LCD display that presents voltage, current, pump operating status and fault messages. M31 uses double protection against dry running - it analyzes the signal from the probes or float and the current consumption of the operating pump. Importantly, protection against dry running also works without installing probes in the well itself: after bridging the appropriate inputs, the controller recognizes dry running based on the current consumption and stops the pump in time. After a fault occurs, the device automatically checks the conditions and resumes operation only when the irregularities disappear.
Unlike the basic M131 model, the M31 controller additionally records the accumulated pump operating time and the history of the last five failures in which the protective functions were activated. This makes it easier to assess the condition of the installation and plan inspections. As three-phase equipment, M31 should be connected by a qualified installer, in accordance with the instructions and applicable regulations.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – M31 controller
What is the M31 controller used for?
The M31 controller is an intelligent controller for automatic control of the operation of one three-phase pump and its protection. It turns the pump on and off depending on the water level or pressure, protects it against dry running and power supply irregularities, and additionally records the operating time and failure history.
What pumps can be connected to the M31 controller?
M31 works with three-phase deep-well, surface and submersible pumps with a power supply of 3 ~ 400 V. It is available in two variants of pump power: 0.75-4 kW and 5.5-7.5 kW, which allows it to be selected for various installations.
What is the difference between the M31 controller and the M131 model?
M31 has the same power parameters and the same set of protections as M131, but additionally displays the accumulated pump operating time, records the history of the last five failures and uses a dynamic LCD screen. The full range of controllers can be found in the category drivers.
Does M31 protect the pump against dry running without installing probes in the well?
Yes. The M31 can detect dry running by analyzing the pump's current consumption, so effective protection also works when installing probes in the well is difficult or expensive. When dry running is detected, the pump is stopped and the controller tries to start again after the problem disappears.
Can the M31 controller be mounted outside the building?
M31 has a protection class of IP22 and is intended for installation inside buildings, in a vertical position, in a dry and well-ventilated place. The device must be protected against water, including atmospheric water, therefore, when the pump is operating outdoors, the controller itself is placed indoors or in an appropriate, protected housing.
Where to buy the M31 controller?
