For whom
- Installers and plumbers - the included tee simplifies the connection of the controller in the hydrophore system.
- Home owners with their own water intake - the device stops the pump itself when there is no water and protects it against damage.
- Users of hydrophore sets - the controller maintains the pump operation in the set pressure range.
- Allotment owners and farms - simple protection of the surface pump during daily water consumption.
Application
SK-13 works well in home and garden water installations with a surface pump. It works in networks equipped with a hydrophore tank. When the pressure drops below the shut-off threshold, the device stops the pump and resumes operation after water is refilled.
Single-phase pumps are connected directly, and three-phase pumps are connected via a contactor. The pump is protected by the SK-13 230 V pressure controller.
