SMC12 - Raritan Smart Macerator Control - 12v

Smart Macerator Control - 12v

Monitors motor and pump to prevent dry run and overload.

Features:

• If pump doesn't prime in 7 seconds or runs dry for 5 seconds, control will shut down pump
• SMC control can be reset by turning off and on switch - power need not be turned off
• If power is not turned off to the control, control will job macerator pump for a few milliseconds every seven days to prevent binding of impeller
• If pump draws more than 20 amps, control will shut down pump

The Raritan Smart Macerator Control - 12v, part number SMC12, is designed to manage and protect 12-volt macerator pumps. This control unit monitors pump operation to prevent common issues such as dry running and motor overload. It automatically shuts down the pump if it fails to prime within 7 seconds or runs dry for 5 seconds, mitigating potential damage to the pump motor and impeller. Additionally, the control unit includes an overload protection feature, shutting down the pump if current draw exceeds 20 amps. For maintenance, it periodically jobs the macerator pump for a few milliseconds every seven days to prevent impeller binding, provided power remains supplied to the control. The unit can be reset by cycling its associated switch, without requiring a full power cycle to the control itself. This device is suitable for applications requiring reliable macerator pump management and protection in 12-volt systems.
