HydroSTART Submersible Level Controller
Level controller for up to two submersible pumps; IP54/IP56 rated with electronic overload and duty alternation.





Overview
The HydroSTART Submersible Level Controllers are the ideal option for up to two submersible pumps. Featuring functionality not seen on any previous generation controller, HydroSTART includes a vast array of electronic overload, short circuit and pump protection, and uses more floats to monitor pit levels for optimum pump performance with duty alternation and duty assist operation modes.
