INTRODUCTION
Firetrol® combined automatic and manual fire pump controllers are intended for starting
electric motor driven fire pumps.
Firetrol fire pump controllers are listed, approved or certified by the following approving
authorities: Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc., Underwriters’ Laboratories of Canada, Canadian
Standards Association, City of New York Department of Buildings and Factory Mutual. They
are built to meet or exceed the requirements of the approving authorities listed above as well
as NEMA and the latest editions of NFPA 20 and NFPA 70.
These instructions are intended to assist in the understanding of the installation and opera-
tion of these controllers. Read the instructions thoroughly prior to connecting the controller.
If there are any unanswered questions, please contact the local Firetrol representative or
factory service department.

MOUNTING CONTROLLER
NOTE—Consult the appropriate job plans to determine the controller mounting location. Tools
and materials (all mounting) required:
1. Assortment of common hand tools of the type used to service electromechanical equip-
ment.
2. Drill for drilling floor anchor holes.
3. Hand level.
4. Tape measure.
5. Eight anchors, bolts and washers, per enclosure.

FLOOR MOUNT
NOTE—Consult the appropriate job plans to determine the controller mounting location. Refer
to the controller dimension print for necessary mounting dimensions.
The controller is floor mounted by using the two pre-drilled holes in each leg. The holes
are dimensionally on the same line for ease of mounting.
1. Using either the dimension print or by measuring the distance between the center lines
of the holes on one leg, transcribe these dimensions onto floor.
2. Drill two holes in the floor for anchoring the leg.
3. Mark the location of the holes for the opposite leg and drill two more holes.
4. Secure the controller to the floor with bolts and washers and tighten.
5. Check to be sure the enclosure door opens freely and that the enclosure is level.

MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Important Precautions—
Prior to making any field connections:
1. Verity that the following information is compatible with other related equipment on the
project:
•Firetrol catalog number
•Motor horsepower, voltage, phase and frequency
•System pressure
2. The project electrical contractor must supply all necessary wiring for field connections in
accordance with the National Electrical Code, local electrical code and any other authority
having jurisdiction.
3. Open the enclosure doors and inspect the internal components and wiring for any
signs of frayed or loose wires or other visible damage.
4. Refer to the appropriate field connection drawing in the manual for all wiring information.
Procedure—
All field connections, remote alarm functions and AC wiring are brought into the enclosure
through the top, bottom, or side conduit entrances as indicated on the dimension drawing.
Refer to the National Electrical Code, the local electrical code or any other authority having
jurisdiction for proper conduit entrance location.
1. Use a hole punch, not a torch nor a drill, and punch a hole in the enclosure for the size
conduit being used.
2. Install necessary conduit.
3. Pull all wires necessary for field connections, remote alarm functions, AC power and all
other optional features. Allow enough excess wire inside the enclosure to make up connec-
tions to the appropriate line, load and control terminal block points. Be sure to consult
the appropriate field connection diagram included with the manual. For proper wire
sizing, refer to the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70.
4. Make all field connections to the remote alarm functions and any other optional features.
Do not connect AC power.
5. Verify AC line voltage, phase and frequency with the controller data plate on the enclosure
door prior to connecting AC power.
6. Connect the AC power.
7. Check to see that all connections are both correctly wired (in accordance with the field
connection diagram) and tight.
8. Close the enclosure doors.

GENERAL PRE-START UP OPERATION

1. Check the controller for bolts, nuts and electrical connections which may have loosened
during shipment.
2. If a remote start push-button is used, connect the wires to terminals 6 and 7.
3. If a deluge valve is used, remove the jumper from terminals 1 and 8. Connect wires from
the normally closed contact on the deluge valve to terminals 1 and 8.
4. If a FTA200 remote alarm panel is used, connect like numbered terminals in the remote
alarm panel to terminals 17, 18, 19 and 20 in the fire pump controller. Terminals H and N
must be connected if a FTA200 alarm panel is used.
5. If a FTA200 remote alarm panel is used, connect a reliable, separate, supervisory 120
volt power supply to terminals L1 and L2 in the alarm panel.
2
GENERAL START UP OPERATION
General operating procedures are indicated on the data plate fastened to the front of the
controller enclosure door. The following information is merely in greater detail:
Close and secure Power and Transformer Compartment doors.
Voltage Check—
1. Energize the incoming power feeder.
2. Close the Isolating Disconnect Switch by moving the handle to the “ON”
position.
3. Place the “Normal-OFF-Test” selector switch in the Normal position.
4. Press the METER push-button on the Mark II interface panel. The 3 phase
voltage will be displayed. Confirm that the measured voltage matches the voltage
stamped on the data plate.

At this time, it is necessary to prepare the controller for

normal operation. See section 2 for setup instructions
for the Mark II. After the Mark II has been configured,
return to this section.

Phase Rotation
The Mark II is designed to indicate phase loss and/or phase reversal. Separate LED’s
indicate POWER ON and PHASE REVERSAL. If external alarms are wired, these failures
will also be indicated at the remote alarm location. The Mark II is factory programmed for the
standard ABC phase relationship. If voltage is available on all three phases and the PHASE
REVERSAL LED comes on, see Section 2 - Alarm Limits-Reverse Phases.

To simulate a phase reversal for testing purposes, push and

hold the phase reversal push-button located on the right hand
side of the Mark II with the door open (see photo on right). The
phases will be reversed internal to the Mark II and a phase
reversal alarm will be initiated. The alarm will clear when the
button is released.

3
MOTOR ROTATION
Confirm direction of motor rotation as follows:
1. Close and secure enclosure doors.
2. Press and hold the STOP push-button. Close the Isolating Disconnect Switch, by moving
handle to the “ON “ position then release the STOP push-button.
3. The pump motor should rotate immediately if system pressure is low. If system pressure
is not low, press the manual START push-button and immediately press the manual STOP
push-button.
4. Observe direction of motor rotation.
5. If rotation is incorrect, confirm that the isolating switch/circuit breaker is in the OFF position,
open enclosure door and reverse any two of the motor leads (T1, T2, T3) on the load side
of contactor M. For example, T1 and T2, T1 and T3 or T2 and T3.
6. Retest for proper rotation following steps 1 through 4.
INITIAL START-UP OPERATION
1. Press and hold the STOP push-button. Place disconnect switch in ON position then
release the STOP push-button. The pump may start immediately if system pressure is
low. The PUMP RUNNING and LOW PRESSURE LED’s will be lit.
2. If the Mark II is configured for automatic shutdown (MANUAL STOP disabled), the pump
motor will continue to run for the period of time set in the MIN RUN (or OFF DELAY) screen
and then stop automatically, providing the STOP pressure setting has been reached.
Both the system pressure and MIN RUN (or OFF DELAY) time remaining will be shown
on the display. Depressing the STOP push-button during the running period will stop the
motor as long as the button is held in. However, the motor will restart when the button is
released if system pressure is below the stop setting.
3. If the controller is configured for manual shutdown (MANUAL STOP enabled), the pump
will continue to run until the STOP push-button is depressed.
4. To stop the motor otherwise, press and hold the STOP push-button or move the “Normal-Off-
Test” selector switch to “Off” position and place the DISCONNECTING MEANS handle
in the OFF position.

FOR MANUAL START

1. Follow the initial start-up instructions. The isolating switch should be closed, the POWER
AVAILABLE LED should be illuminated and system pressure normal, i.e. higher than the
programmed START PRESSURE setting.
2. Press the START push-button. The pump motor should start and continue to run. It will
not stop automatically. The running period timer and pressure switch have no control over
this manual operation.
3. To stop, press the STOP push-button.
4. Starting from a remote START push-button (if used) functions in the same way as the local
START push-button.
5. If the pump motor restarts, system pressure is below the START PRESSURE setting.

4
Emergency Run Mechanism
This Device is used to mechanically close the motor contactor M in the event of coil burnout
or other electrical problems which would prevent normal starting of the pump motor.
If control circuit power is not available, the Emergency Run Mechanism mechanically closes
contractor M starting the motor.

To START move the emergency run handle counter-clockwise (left) until it is latched “ON”
the motor will start and continue to run.

-Warning- This is an EMERGENCY device and should be used only in an emergency run
situation. Casual or Careless use of this mechanism may result in damage to the controller
electrical components. It is not intended for, nor should be used as a testing device.

To STOP the pump motor when the emergency run handle is in the “ON” position, move the
handle to “OFF” and place the isolating switch handle in the “OFF” position.

ABBREVIATED STARTING SEQUENCE

 SECTION 2

Mark II Set Up
Set Up Notes:

These instructions often refer to pressing the “right arrow” - key; earlier versions of the
Mark II interface panel had an “ACK” key instead. Pressing the “ACK” key will have the same
results as the key when following these instructions.

User Passwords:

Adjusting the settings of the Mark II can severely effect the operation of the fire pump controller.
Any adjustments should be done by qualified personnel. This manual will refer to an “opera-
tor” level password and an “supervisor” level password. The “operator” level password allows
changes that might normally be made by maintenance personnel. The “supervisor” password
allows changes that may more seriously affect the operation of the fire pump controller. A
“supervisor” level password might be required by well-trained maintenance personnel, pump
distributors or manufacturers representatives.

The “operator” level password is shown below. This password is also on a label affixed to
the back of the Mark II on the inside of the controller door. Although this password may be
changed, it is not recommended. Cost to the owner may be incurred if the factory password
is changed, then forgotten.

When prompted for the Operator Level password enter the following key sequence:

METER-MENU-METER-MENU-PRINT-ENTER

The Supervisor Level password will be supplied as necessary or will already be known by the
person performing the changes to the controller.

Interlock Jumper
NOTICE: The controller is shipped with an interlock jumper in place to prevent motor
starting during the setup procedure. The Mark II display will have the INTERLOCK ON
LED turned on and the ALARM LED will blink. This will not interfere with the setup
procedure. This interlock jumper must be removed for the controller to operate au-
tomatically. Remove the jumper wire connected between field terminals #1 and #10
when setup is complete.

When enabled, a log of all events are written to a USB Flash Disk (aka Flash Drive or Memory Stick).
The log is automatically written to the disk on a daily basis at the end of each day (0:00). This record
is broken down into monthly files on the disk. Each file consists of one month’s worth of data, broken
down into individual days. For example the recorded data for the month of August, 2007 would have
a file named “2007-08.txt”. The data is recorded in text (.txt) format and can be viewed with any text
editor, but the recommended method is to import the data into a spreadsheet program such as Micro-
soft® Excel®. This allows for easier sorting and searching of the data.

Data can be written to the flash disk at any time by pressing the SAVE TO DISK button on the Mark
II interface. Enter the “operator” password. The display will show “Disk Save Active” while the file is
being written to the disk, the time and date will reappear when the save is complete. The name of
the file written to the disk will be “Savedisk.txt”. This file will contain the contents of the Event Log, the
Data Log and the System Setup. When using the SAVE TO DISK function, any previous “Savedisk.
txt” file on the flash disk will be overwritten with the new file.

A DISK ERROR message will be given if a flash disk is not inserted into the USB port and data is
attempting to write to the disk. To clear this error, insert a disk into the port and press the SAVE TO
DISK push-button on the Mark II. A DISK FULL ERROR will occur if insufficient space remains on the
disk for a file attempting to write to the disk. To clear this error, insert a different flash disk and press
the SAVE TO DISK push-button on the Mark II. A DISK NEAR FULL message will be given prior to
DISK FULL ERROR and a different disk should be inserted at that time.

When the autosave feature is enabled, a flash disk should be left in the USB port at all times. Under
normal conditions, a small capacity flash drive would hold many years worth of data (approx. 1MB /
Year).
