About this file

This is a submittal document for a triplex booster pump system being proposed by Florida Hydronics for Halifax Health's Daytona Building 1 South Machine Room. The project involves the removal and replacement of existing booster pumps with a new domestic water booster package consisting of three 15 HP end suction pumps (Model 8B252515) configured to deliver 151.5 GPM at 196 feet of total dynamic head. The system operates at 208V, 3-phase, 60 Hz and includes a UL 508A listed control panel with NEMA 12, UL Type 1 powder-coated enclosure featuring manual and automatic alternation, door-mounted hand-off-automatic switches, stainless steel gauges, and thermal relief valve. The control system incorporates a 7-inch color touch screen HMI with BACnet MS/TP, BACnet IP, and Modbus TCP communication protocols, variable speed drives (ABB FXA500), and a 132-gallon bladder tank rated at 125 PSI. The proposal is dated February 5, 2026, and was submitted under proposal number 5K.

The booster package is manufactured by VC Systems & Controls, Inc. and includes redundant discharge pressure transducers and a suction pressure transducer for system monitoring. All wetted components are constructed from 304L stainless steel or ductile iron, with NSF 61 certified pump internals and NSF 372 certified brass components. The system meets DOE pump efficiency requirements and includes 6-inch flanged suction and discharge headers with 6-inch flex connectors. Florida Hydronics, represented at 7780 Westside Industrial Drive, Jacksonville, FL 32219, provides a 24-month warranty on the packaged pumping system from manufacturing date and an extended 60-month warranty on variable speed drives, PLC, and HMI. The equipment requires 18 inches of clearance around the system for service and NEC compliance clearance in front of the control panel, with specifications and dimensional details provided on the engineering drawing.

Basic Sequence Controller can be configured for 1 to 5 pumps. Pumps can be one of several types, Small “Jockey” (variable speed), Variable Speed, Variable Speed with Automatic Bypass or Constant Speed. The controller can use any mix of pump types and any type can be installed in any position. It is even possible to change a pump type in the field, for example, if the owner decides they want to convert an older constant speed pump to variable speed, this is now possible with just parameter changes. This guide is universal for any number and type of pumps installed. All pressure and timer settings are user adjustable. Pressure is monitored and processed using an enhanced PID algorithm. The result of this calculation generates a speed signal that will modulate the pump speed to maintain a constant system pressure. Pumps are added and rejected based on the speed. The pump speed has a direct relationship to the flow capacity of the pump. This ultimately stages pumps on and off at the most effective points with minimal disturbance to the system pressure. It will inherently adapt as the pump impeller wears or clogs.

To prevent false starting and premature stopping of the pumps all timed sequences are interlocked. This means that a lag pump will not begin any start delay timers if the lead pump is not running. Similarly the lead pump stop delay timer will not begin timing out until the lag pump has stopped. By interlocking the pumps in this manner it is impossible for any pump to start or stop simultaneously under normal operating conditions. This also provides an orderly staging sequence upon power up or when returning to operation from a shutdown such as low suction. An interstage timer is also provided that allows the user to create a short time gap where pumps cannot be added or removed until the timer expires. This allows time for the hydraulics to settle when pumps start and stop. In this way the start delay for successive pumps can be set shorter if needed. The interstage timer is activated once with each pump start or stop event.

Typical operation example:

As the flow demand on the system increases the PID will speed the pump up to compensate. When the PID output reaches 100% (adjustable) the pump has achieved maximum capacity. Because we know that the pump is at full capacity we do not need to continue flowing beyond this point to induce a pump start via a pressure drop. Instead we begin the time delay (triggered by the PID output) for starting the next pump in line. When the next pump starts the PID will begin slowing as the next pump ramps up to speed and absorbs a portion of the system flow.

As the system flow demand decreases, the PID will begin reducing the pump speed to accommodate the reduction in system flow. When the speed drops below the minimum speed we know that the pump can no longer make enough pressure to open the check valve. At this point it is running at or near dead head. If we set the “PUMP REJECT SETPOINT” at this point then we can reject a pump and let the other pump(s) speed up to compensate for the change in the flow division.

Obviously, speeding the pumps up again would cause the “PUMP REJECT SETPOINT” to be exceeded and therefore no additional pumps would be stopped.

Because the drives ramp the speed up and down slowly the PID will have time to adjust the speed of the drives as pumps are added or rejected from operation.

For this reason there is little or no change in system pressure when pumps are added or removed.

Dynamic Speed Control System Configuring the system reject speed can be done manually if desired, but in many cases, the supply pressure to the system varies throughout the day making the the speed based setting difficult to set properly. Thanks to the improved processing power available today, it is now possible to let the controller dynamically calculate the best values in real time so the system will always operate at the optimal points. Unless there is a very specific need for manual controls it is suggested that dynamic speed controls be enabled. However, if manual control is desired, the controllers built in startup wizard can assist in calculating the best values for your application.

Secondary control method In the event a sudden pressure drop is detected and the pump has not already started from the primary sequence, the pressure drop would stage pumps on using traditional pressure based sequencing. These settings will be based on building minimums to allow more adjustable range on the primary system.

Lead pump Sleep Mode - Maximizing energy savings A special sleep mode feature is provided that will constantly test for a zero flow condition. When no flow is detected, the lead pump will enter sleep mode, reducing the speed to 0% and effectively stopping the pump. Once the sleep mode has been entered, the pump will remain at 0 speed until a pressure drop is detected. In this way, the building static pressure can sustain small demands similar to the way hydro-pneumatic storage tanks work in many constant speed systems. If a pressure drop is detected, generally set several pounds below the normal operating pressure, the lead pump will ramp up and restore the system pressure. If the building demand is still low enough, the lead pump will return to sleep mode to conserve energy. Sleep mode is compatible on systems with or without hydro-pneumatic storage tanks. In some cases, a hydro-pneumatic storage tank can be added to increase the amount of time the lead pump can remain in sleep mode.

One common problem with variable speed system is that they are very sluggish upon “waking” from a sleep state and that results in undesirable pressure fluctuations, often for 30 seconds or more. This is because in most cases, the first 50-70% of the pump speed has no impact on the system pressure. It simply requires that much speed to open the check valve and begin flowing water. While a PID is an excellent choice for speed control when everything is up and running, it is blinded during the initial start of the lead pump. The PID will see no change as it speeds up the pump and react more aggressively to compensate.

Then suddenly the pressure will spike as the pump crosses the threshold at which the check valve opens and begins flowing water. It's too late to do much at this point because the PID has ramped way beyond the speed required to make the minimum pressure and now has to reduce the speed to correct the huge error. If the water demand is very low, the excess pressure is often trapped and can even cause a high system pressure shutdown in severe cases. This problem requires a very careful and complex mathematical approach to resolve. VC Controls has developed a solution to this age old problem by creating a modified PID algorithm that transparently eliminates this overshoot. The software handles all the complex issues of getting the pump speed up to the threshold as quickly as mechanically possible, then seamlessly transitions into a full PID control scheme once the initial threshold has been overcome. In this way, the system response time is fast, accurate and produces no overshoot, even when starting into a closed valve (no flow) situation.

Pressure Recovery mode When the pumps are offline for an extended period of time such as after a power outage or a system shutdown, the pressure can drop significantly and potentially create a dangerous hydraulic situation. If the pipes have drained and air has entered the system, simply restarting the system would cause the water to rush in at high velocities to refill the pipe. The very nature of the controller is to restore the pressure as quickly as possible. If the pipes are full, this is desirable, but if the pipes are empty, this can be disastrous. High velocities will eventually slam into the end of the pipe. Water does not compress like air and when it hits the end of the pipe, severe water hammer will occur. If the pipes are new and strong, everything may be fine, but over time as the pipes and fixtures weaken, this water hammer could cause serious damage and pipe breaks. This system has a pressure recovery mode feature that can be enabled to monitor the pressure and determine when the building has begun to drain and draw air into the pipes. In the event the pressure drops to unsafe levels, the recovery mode automatically engages and refills the system slowly by adjusting the pressure setpoint down to the current pressure, then gradually increasing it over time as the pressure is resorted. The recovery mode is fully adjustable so even the weakest pipes can be protected from water hammer resulting from empty pipes.

Alternation of pumps The controller will change the order in which pumps start depending on programmed settings. This controller employs 3 different types of alternation than can be used independent or together as desired. Failed pumps are automatically removed from the sequence and a new alternation sequence is generated using the remaining pumps. Because the system may have a mixture of different pump types, the alternator will group pumps that are of the same type and alternate each group independently.

Duty Cycle (1st on 1st Off) When pumps are added or removed from operation, this alternation mode will always attempt to remove the pump that has been operating the longest. In other words, the first pump started will be the first pump stopped. This alternation will generally keep a steady rotation through the pumps under normal circumstances.

Actual run time is not controlled or balanced in this mode, but rather the objective of this alternator is to ensure a fresh pump is always used when adding and the pump that has been running longest is stopped first.

Time of Day Alternation This alternation will automatically alternate the pumps at the preset time of day on selected days of the week. This alternation causes a forced alternation regardless of any run time or stop/start cycles of the pumps. In the scenario where one pump runs continuously, a simple duty cycle alternation may never be induced. The Time of Day alternation will guarantee alternation will occur on specific days at a specific hour.

Excessive Run Time Alternation Duty Cycle and Time of Day alternation cycle do little to balance the run time of the pumps but do a good job of making sure no pump gets all of the run time. In some cases it is desirable to limit the run time of a pump by switching to a new pump after the current pump has run for a preset time. This is very useful for system that have continuous and relatively stable demands that might cause a single pump to operate alone most of the time. Using the Run Time alternation would cause a new pump to be used every so often. The user may choose to set the run time so a new pump starts every 8 hours of actual continuous running time. This method of alternation can equalize the run time across the pumps if that is the desired goal.

Multiple Discharge Sensor & Switch Capability The controller is designed to accept up to 2 discharge pressure sensors and a high pressure cutout switch. Not all systems are provided with all sensors as they are optional. If both discharge pressure sensors are present, then they will be labeled “Local” and “Remote” for the sake of identification. Ideally, the remote sensor would be located at the highest and most remote area of the building, however this is often impractical or too costly so in those cases, the “Remote” sensor may be located at the same location as the local sensor. The controller can be configured to accommodate either scenario.

Assuming both sensors are installed, the controller will always use the “Remote” sensor as the primary control source and monitor the “Local” sensor pressure.

The pressure setpoint is set relative to the location of the remote sensor. In the event the remote sensor fails completely, an alarm will be activated and the “Local” sensor will be used in it's place until repairs are made. In this scenario, the system operation is not reduced in any way, however, it is strongly suggested the failed sensor be repaired as soon as possible. When both sensors are providing a valid (in range) signal the controller will compare the pressure signals of both sensors against one another to determine if the sensors are operating normally. In the event the values do not match expected values, the controller will alarm and run the pumps at a safe default speed until repairs can be made to the defective sensor.

In addition to the pressure sensors, a high pressure cutout switch may be installed. The optional switch provides another way to test the pressure sensors for abnormal operation using a mechanical based technology instead of electronics. If the high pressure switch is tripped, the Discharge pressure display will display the maximum sensor scale, shutdown the pumps and activate an alarm indicating the switch was tripped.

Display Screens The controller is provided with a 7” Wide Screen Format touch sensitive operator interface screen. Actual screens may vary slightly based on number of pumps or special features ordered, however this overview covers typical concepts and features provided with every system. The back light is automatically turned on when any part of the screen is pressed and will remain on for approximately 30 minutes if no buttons are pressed. This timer can be adjusted if desired.

Under normal operation the display will show system operational data such as system and suction pressures or levels, PID output speed, flow rates, pumps running, elapsed run time etc. Many screens will have buttons that allow access to more help or information windows. Some icons such as the speaker in the bottom right hand corner are also buttons. Touching the speaker will mute the beeping sounds heard when pressing buttons. When muted, this icon changes to show if the sound is on or off. Screens that contain sensitive information such as configuration and parameter settings are protected by a password. Take some time to familiarize yourself with the screens available. The Menu button provides access to all major screens such as the main screen, the trending screen, the event log and parameters.

Refer to “Controller Setup” for details on changing system settings.

Trending and Event Logs This controller is provided with special data logging capabilities. The event log can be accessed by touching MENU then selecting ALARM & EVENT LOG.

These logs can be very useful when troubleshooting system operation. All events such as pump alarms and actual pump run status are logged as they occur. The time that they occurred and the time that they ended are also recorded. Many events will also include values related to the event in the message. For example, if the supply pressure to the system dropped and caused the system to alarm, the message would show a Low Supply Alarm followed by the pressure that was being supplied at the moment the alarm engaged. Normal system events appear in a bold print as they occur and fade to a lighter color as they end. Active events can be double clicked to change the color so it is easy to identify new alarms that occur after current alarms are acknowledged. Alarm events will appear in the scrolling banner at the top of the screen that turns red when alarms exist, otherwise it will be green. A special log filtered to display just the alarms can be accessed by touching the Alarm banner. This can be very helpful for viewing all alarms present at once when many alarms exist. All alarms will appear in the normal event log as well. The first screen shows current alarms and events. A button on this screen opens a window that allows viewing of older events and alarms. To simplify viewing, alarms are indented and preceded with [!]. All events and alarms are backed up in EEPROM memory so they are retained even after a power loss. In addition to the event log, a real time chart recorder is provided that will show the trend history of the system and suction pressures as well as the pump speed over the past 90 days or more. Each screen displays about 60 minutes of data and samples are approximately 1 minute apart.

Data from the current day can be accessed by simply using the arrow keys at the bottom of the chart recorder to scroll back and forth through time. You can skip from day to day using the DATE arrow buttons located near the right edge of the chart. Touching the chart will cause the date in the upper left corner of the chart to change to the date and time of the point you touched.

Event history logs and x-y data plots share EEPROM memory so both are retained through a loss of power. When the memory is full, the oldest data is deleted as new data comes in. The ample storage should be enough to track down issues even if they have spanned over long periods of time.

Alarms and Indicators and other controls The system will monitor the supply and discharge pressures as well as drives for proper operation. In the event of abnormal operation the controller will illuminate a common alarm lamp and display a message indicating the source of the problem. All systems are provided with a form C common alarm “dry” contact for remote monitoring. This contact will change state in the event of any alarm including loss of power. The “Silence” button may be pressed to quiet the audible alarm while problems are resolved. The local and remote alarms will remain active until the condition ceases.

Note: Each alarm can be configured as needed to cause a pump shutdown, manual or automatic restart of pumps as well as manual or automatic reset of the alarm. The configuration is limited to factory authorized personnel due to the possible dangers involved in some scenarios and to ensure warranties are not void.

All systems are provided with the following alarms and messages. Additional alarms and messages are provided in addition to those listed here. Related information to each alarm is provided at the touchscreen for all alarms.

LOW SYSTEM ALARM

If the pressure (level) fails to rise above the low pressure (level) alarm setting within the alarm delay timer setting, this alarm will be engaged to notify an

Page 3 of 12 Type “PMP-M172P” Controllers 12/01/2017 operator of the condition. This alarm will automatically reset when the condition ceases to exist. Possible causes include pumps left in the off position, motor overloads or drives tripped or clogged pump impellers.

HIGH SYSTEM ALARM

If the discharge pressure (level) rises above the alarm pressure (level) setting for the duration of the alarm delay timer, all pumps in “AUTO” will be stopped to prevent damage to system piping. Some possible causes include a failure of a pressure sensor or excessively high supply pressure to the system, improper PID tuning or manual operation of the pump above the high pressure alarm setting. A pressure display that is higher than the range printed on the sensor can indicate a sensor failure or wiring problem. Note that it is more common for a sensor to fail to negative pressure than a high pressure.

LOW SUCTION ALARM

The water source to the system should have some positive pressure (level). If this pressure (level) is lost there is danger of damage to the pump caused by a lack of water to properly lubricate the pump bearings. If the pressure (level) drops below the alarm pressure (level) setting for the duration of the time delay then the pumps in “AUTO” will be stopped. The pumps will automatically return to operation when the water supply pressure returns. The alarm must be manually reset.

Note: The suction alarm can be configured for a variety of sensors. Systems that pump from a pressurized city water main will generally have a pressure sensor, where as a system that is fed from a reservoir tank might use a level sensor or possibly a level switch. This controller can be configured for each of these possibilities.

PUMP#[x] FAIL TO START (Where [x] = the pump number that has failed) If any motor starter fails to engage when the controller calls it, this alarm is engaged to alert the operator that the system capacity is now reduced. System will continue to operate with the remaining pumps. This alarm can occur under drive failure, Drive Keypad switch in “Off” or if the drive has failed to start when called. On constant speed pumps or drive bypasses, this can also occur when an overload trips. The fail to start alarm must be manually reset.

Starting the system up for the first time Each pump is provided with “HAND-OFF-AUTO” selector switches (on the drive keypad) and run indication lamps (on color touch screen). The “HAND” position is intended for attended use only. This mode will over-ride all alarms except the motor overload or drive trip. This can be useful for operating a system manually with failed components or for testing pump operation during startup. The “OFF” position will prevent a pump from being started in any mode. This is not a service lockout position. Always disable the power source to a pump before performing service. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or death.

When preparing to start a system for the first time there are many things to be aware of. You need to familiarize your self with the controller, the required connections and the piping that the system is connected to. Never just walk up to a panel and throw the switch on and expect it to work. Doing so can cause serious damage to the system piping as well as the people around. Always assume all wires are live and practice safe electrical technique. Startup should only be performed by trained factory authorized personnel.

Controller Setup All controller settings can be adjusted from the local control panel display only.

Remote displays are not permitted to change parameters as this could cause a hazardous situation if a person is not present to monitor the reaction of the system to parameter changes.

To change parameters you will need to log in first to prevent unwanted tampering of the system parameters. Several security login levels are possible. Each parameter is assigned a security level. If your login level is not high enough, you will be prompted to log in at a higher level when a parameter is touched. It is not necessary to be logged in to view parameters, only to make changes The panel is shipped with the password set as follows

User Levels allow changes to most parameters.

USER: 1111

OWNER Level permits changing parameters that could be critical to building safety such as high pressure shutdown alarm values. It also allows the creation of new users. Users can be created and removed by touching MENU then select MANAGE USERS.

Factory Representative Level can access all parameters except Admin parameters and can view and change all passwords except Admin level.

Factory Reps are given their password by the factory.

Admin Level grants access to all parameters and all passwords. Factory level passwords are not published for obvious reasons.

To access the parameters simply touch the menu button and select the desired option you wish to view or change. You will be logged out automatically after 10 minutes, or if you press any of the logout buttons found in many locations. If you attempt to change a parameter that you do not have privileges to change, the login screen will pop up and prompt you to log in at a level that will permit changes. It is suggested that new users and passwords be entered at startup to improve security.

Simple default parameters are shown in the parameter lists below. A factory representative can change any password in the event all passwords are lost. For security reasons, the Factory passwords are not shown in this manual.

Touch the value of any parameter and a keypad will pop up to allow you to change that value.

GROUP [106.x]

Scale Local Supply Sensor Note that this controller can have up to two discharge sensors installed. They are referred to as “Local” and “Remote”. Ideally, the remote sensor will be located at the highest and most remote area of the building, however, in many cases that is impractical so the remote sensor is locally mounted and used as a redundant sensor. Most sensors are 0-300psi or 0-416” for level.

The Span would be 300 or 416 respectively. The offset allows you to correct for level sensors that are not touching the bottom of a tank. For example, if the sensor was 6” from the bottom, you can use the Offset value to correct the displayed level.

[106.1] Span {PSI/INCHES button} – Range of sensor from min to max Enable/Disable Button – Allows disabling the Local sensor if not installed [106.2] Offset – Offset from zero.

[106.3] Error Delay – Delay to prevent false alarms [106.4] Alarm Behavior - See chart in group 101.x [106.5] Sensor Type {SENSOR/SWITCH button}– You can configure the controller to use a pressure or level SENSOR or optionally you can use a SWITCH such as an optical or float switch. When changing between types, no sensor can be connected to the terminal board. The PLC input can be damaged if any sensor is connected while changing this value!

GROUP [107.x]

Scale Local Discharge Sensor Most sensors are 0-300psi. The Span would be 300. The offset is usually set to zero for pressure sensors. If the sensor does not read exactly zero when no pressure is applied, the offset can be used to correct the pressure display error if desired.

[107.1] Span {PSI/INCHES button} – Range of sensor from min to max [Enable/Disable] [107.2] Offset – Offset from zero.

[107.3] Error Delay – Delay to prevent false alarms [107.4] Alarm Behavior - See chart in group 101.x

GROUP [108.x]

PID Tuning Parameters Some basic understanding of PID tuning is assumed. If you need assistance, please contact the factory before changing the values in this group.

[108.1] Proportional – Proportional Gain (Larger Values = More Aggressive) [108.2] Integral – Integral Gain (Larger Values = More Aggressive) [108.3] Derivative – Not suggested for use on pump systems. Leave set to 0.

[108.4] Sample Time x100ms – Controls how often the PID recalculates.

GROUP [110.x]

PID Sleep Mode These value control how the Sleep mode behaves.

[110.1] Sleep Test Frequency – Controls how often the system will test for no flow. Tests only occur when the system is running only one pump and the speed is below the reject speed.

[110.2] Abort Sleep Test Deviation – Pressure can sag when testing for no flow due to small amounts of back flow through the check valves. This values controls how much sag is allowed during a test cycle. If the pressure drops by this amount, the test will be aborted and the system will return to normal operation.

[110.3] Kickstart Hold Time – This value controls how long the controller will hold at the wake speed upon waking from sleep mode. This should be set long enough to allow the air in the system to compress and the velocity to stabilize. In most cases, this is 5-10 seconds. In sever cases more time may be required.

[110.4] Boost Before Entering Sleep Mode – This value will increase the system pressure after no flow is proven and before the system enters sleep mode. This is especially useful on systems that utilize a storage tank as it allows more water to be stored and results in longer sleep time for the system.

GROUP [111.x]

PID Setpoint These values are set if you run the startup wizard. The setpoint is the only setting that can be changed without logging in. For this reason, the limits are used to prevent unwanted tampering. Limits allow users a small range of adjustment. If no range is desired, simply set the limits and the setpoint all to the same value to prevent any changes without logging in.

[111.1] Minimum Setpoint Pressure Limit [111.2] Maximum Setpoint Pressure Limit [111.3] Normal Setpoint / Wake Deviation – The normal setpoint is what the system will try to maintain. The Wake level is the deviation below the normal setpoint that causes the system to wake up if sleeping.

[111.4] Deadband – This value creates a zone where the PID will stop calculating. It is not desirable to make pumps vary speed for fractional pressure changes. This value usually does not required adjustment.

GROUP [112.x]

Pressure Recovery Mode In most systems the upper floors need 40-60 psi. If the pressure were to drop 40-60psi below the normal setpoint, it is reasonable to assume that air is now entering the pipes at the upper levels. Setting these values near or slightly higher than the normal pressure of the upper floors will cause the system to enter a pressure recovery mode if the pressure ever drops this much.

The pressure will be slowly restored without water hammer automatically.

[112.1] Recovery Mode Deviation – Sets the pressure drop that will engage pressure recovery mode.

[112.2] Recovery Mode Step – Sets the amount the setpoint will step up each time the system reaches the current setpoint. This increment will continue until the pressure returns to a value between the setpoint and (setpoint – parameter 112.1).

GROUP [113.x]

Remote Disable [113.1] Low Pressure Alarm on Remote Disable – If a remote disable contact is wired to the terminal board and the contact is closed, the system will stop all pump. In some cases such as irrigation systems, it may be desirable to disable the low system pressure alarm while the system is disabled.
