Description
WATER-PASS Controller – IPRO Smart Pump Controller
WATER-PASS is an electronic IPRO pump controller that automatically switches the pump on and off based on the water pressure and flow in the pipeline. Thanks to its adjustable start-up pressure, it fully replaces a traditional pressure switch, while the built-in dry-run protection protects the pump from operating without water.
Who it is for
- Installers and well drillers – the adjustable start-up pressure makes it possible to replace a traditional pressure switch with a single device and simplify system installation.
- Users of domestic water systems – automatic pump activation when water is drawn maintains constant pressure and simplifies everyday operation.
- Farms and horticulture – controlling pump operation when sprinklers are opened automates irrigation without manually switching on the device.
- Service companies – the built-in dry-run protection protects the pump from operating without water and reduces the risk of damage.
Applications
- Automatic pump control in domestic water systems with a private water intake.
- Maintaining constant pressure in hydrofor water supply systems.
- Activating the irrigation pump when garden sprinklers are opened.
- Replacing a traditional pressure switch in an existing system.
The WATER-PASS controller must be installed vertically on the pump discharge side, between the pump and the first water outlet, in accordance with the flow direction marked on the housing.
WATER-PASS controller features – description and technical data
WATER-PASS controls the pump by monitoring changes in water pressure and flow in the pipeline. In practice, it switches the pump on when a tap is opened or sprinklers are opened, and switches it off approximately 6 seconds after water draw-off stops. The user-adjustable start-up pressure makes it possible to adapt the device's operation to the system, while the built-in check valve protects the system against water flowing back to the pump.
When there is no water, the controller switches off the pump, protecting it from dry running; restarting takes place after disconnecting and reconnecting the power supply. The printed circuit board is protected with epoxy resin, which increases the electronics' resistance to moisture. The device is designed to operate with clean water free from mechanical impurities.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – WATER-PASS controller
What is the WATER-PASS controller used for?
WATER-PASS is an electronic IPRO pump controller that automatically switches the pump on when water is drawn and switches it off when water draw-off ends. It maintains constant pressure in the system and protects the pump from dry running.
Does WATER-PASS replace a pressure switch?
Yes. Thanks to its adjustable start-up pressure, WATER-PASS fully replaces a traditional pressure switch, controlling the pump based on the water pressure and flow in the pipeline.
Does WATER-PASS protect the pump against dry running?
Yes. If there is no water, the controller switches off the pump after 8 seconds, protecting it from dry running. Restarting takes place after disconnecting and reconnecting the power supply.
What type of water can WATER-PASS operate with?
The controller is designed to operate with clean water free from mechanical impurities. The presence of sand or iron particles may damage the device.
What is the difference between WATER-PASS and WATER-PASS 2?
WATER-PASS 2 is equipped with a 1 L tank that reduces water hammer, as well as a factory-set start-up pressure of 1.5 bar. WATER-PASS itself can be upgraded with a small diaphragm vessel.
Where can I buy the WATER-PASS controller?
The manufacturer does not sell directly. The WATER-PASS controller is available from commercial partners, plumbing wholesalers, and authorised online distributors.
What warranty does WATER-PASS have?
The IPRO WATER-PASS controller is covered by a 36-month (3-year) manufacturer's warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service is provided by Dambat.
