SC10 Hazard Eliminator

Pump snore controllers don’t appear to be an item that may harm anybody and once installed and commissioned are not likely to, however the installation and commissioning process requires most products to be setup while the electrical switchboard is energised. often tools are required to do this which introduces electrocution and arc flash hazards to the job.

Zero harm is the highest priority for all responsible companies, But few manufacturers consider the potential exposure and inadvertently introduce hazards such as un-insulated tools to undertake the setup task.
Legislation, regulations and company procedures determine that live work and working within live electrical panels is prohibited but the configuration of many pump snore control relays unfortunately requires that the pump is running and the electrical panel is open in order to correctly configure their operation. Although these rules and regulations exist, workers are often required to break them to undertake these simple tasks which isn’t acceptable and significantly increases exposure to the above hazards.

The SC10 Pump Snore Controller from 2iB Pty Ltd addresses these safety issues providing digital input options for the connection of external set point buttons, totally removing electrical shock and arc flash hazards. The pump snore controller set up is very easy and setting of the snore current is completed with the simple push of a button. When changing pump sizes there is also no requirement to adjust the number of conductor turns through the current transformer, again reducing workers exposure to electrical hazards.

Safety is the highest priority in 2iB Electronic Design and the SC-10 Pump Controller is just one example.
