RECOMMENDED LONG TERM STORAGE

It is recommended that controllers be inspected upon receipt at job or storage facility for any damage that may have incurred during shipment.

Metronshouldbenotifiedofanylongtermstoragerequirements,sothecontrollerscanbeshippedinplywoodcrates (completely enclosed). It is recommended that the controller be returned to its crate after inspection, resealed and stored in an environmentally controlled atmosphere (room temperature) free of moisture, splashing liquids or dust.

It is also recommended when controllers are to be stored in excess of two (2) months that a moisture inhibitor (desiccant) be installed in various points within the shipping crate and replaced periodically.

Prior to installation, another visual inspection should be made to insure that moisture or excessive dirt is not present within the controller.

When installing conduit for wiring, extra care should be taken to insure that metal particles, cut wires, etc. do not fall into any of the components.

Should a Metron serviceperson be required for repair due to inadequate storage or handling, the customer will assume all expenses for PARTS, FOOD, LODGING along with STANDARD SERVICE DEPARTMENT LABOR CHARGES for repair.

FD4 Fire Pump Controller

Series FD4

The Metron Model FD4 controller is designed to specifically meet the latest NFPA 20 and UL 218 standards for Diesel Engine Fire Pump Controllers.

This controller implements the latest component and microprocessor logic technology available. It incorporates years of experience in the design and manufacture of fire pump control systems.

The components are installed in a NEMA 2 dust and drip proof enclosure with optional NEMA 3R, 4, 4X, or 12 ratings available. The Operator Interface Device (OlD), manual start pushbuttons, stop push button and Auto-Off-Manual selector switch are located on the exterior door for easy access. The battery disconnect switches are located on the main mounting panel inside the enclosure.

The controller’s logic is based on discrete components using the latest technology with high quality, highly reliable printed circuit boards (PCBs) and PCB mounted relays. The controller uses a microprocessor to control automatic engine and alternation between batteries during cranking. It also monitors and records system alarms and pressure, battery voltage and engine functions. This controller is suitable for all engine types with either ‘energized to run’ or ‘energize to stop’ fuel solenoids.

Inside the controller are two independent fully automatic microprocessor controlled battery chargers rated at 10 Amps each. The battery chargers operate in such a manner as to ensure that the engine batteries are fully charged within 24 hours. PCB mounted LED’s are provided for indication of AC Power On, and Battery Power On.

The controller is supplied with wall mounting brackets as standard. It may be supplied with optional 24” (609.6 mm) legs for free standing floor or skid mounting.

High Voltage Controllers

Series MP600 − Combined Manual and Automatic The Metron Series MP600 High Voltage Fire Pump Controllers are a modular concept system, which utilize “state-of-the-art” vacuum bottle technology. The primary control element in the MP600 is a fixed mount style vacuum bottle contactor with isolating disconnect switch. Integral to the disconnect switch are “R” rated current limiting cartridge style fuses. Space is provided for storage of three spare fuses on the rear of the outer door. Two fused potential/control transformers (PTs) are also contained within the cabinet. These transformers provide both input signals to the monitor circuits as well as control power for the MP600. For testing purposes, it is possible to supply 120VAC power directly to the control section through a built-in test receptacle and test switch.

The MP600 has both front and rear access. Front access is for easy access to the control circuits. Rear access is provided for termination of the incoming power and termination of the motor connections. Incoming power and motor connections enter through the bottom of the controller enclosure.

Locked rotor motor protection is provided by the microprocessor control unit per the requirements of NFPA 20, Chapter 10.

The microprocessor control unit also provides contacts for remote alarm of phase reversal, low voltage, single phase, loss of voltage, motor tripped, and motor overload. The Operator Interface Device (OID) has LED lamps for Power On, Power Failure, System Failure, Motor Overload, and Motor Tripped. The OID also displays three phase voltage and current along with system water pressure.

The standard MP600 is supplied in a NEMA type 2 enclosure which is fabricated from 12 gauge steel. Minimum floor clearance of 12 inches (304.8 mm) is provided with allowances for floor anchoring. The MP600 is protected with two hinged removable, gasketed doors, equipped with a 3-point latch, one door for the control section and one door for the high voltage section. Access to the vacuum contactor is provided by a lockable and interlocked second door, which requires the contactor to be disengaged from the bus prior to opening the door. Control wiring and components are accessible behind their own access door. Access to control components does not require motor de-energization.

A solid copper ground bus is provided through the incoming high voltage and motor termination compartments.

Wye−Delta Reduced Current Types Series MP430 and Series MP435 − CombinedManual and Automatic Metron Fire Pump Controllers conform to the latest requirements of Chapter 10, National Fire Protection Association Pamphlet 20, Standard for Centrifugal Fire Pumps as adopted by Underwriters Laboratories and Factory Mutual. They are withstand rated and listed by Underwriters’ Laboratories and approved by Factory Mutual Research Corporation.





MSC0213 67



Standard Features Series MP430/MP435 Wye- Delta motors have all six leads brought out to the motor terminal box. These leads are connected by the controller first in the Wye configuration which draws only 33% of normal starting current and develops 33% of normal starting torque. After a short time delay, the controller then connects the motor winding in a Delta configuration, applying full voltage and drawing full load running current and developing full running torque.

With the MP430 open transition types, there is a very short period of time where no voltage is applied to the motor during transition from Wye to Delta connections. This condition can cause current surges or disturbances being fed back into the main power source. The magnitude of the surges is proportional to the phase difference between the voltage generated by the running motor and the power source. These transients can in some instances, affect other equipment which are sensitive to current surges.

The MP435 closed transition types provide a smoother transition from Wye to Delta by keeping the motor continuously energized during the transition period. This is accomplished by means of resistors which are connected in the circuit during the momentary period of transition from Wye to Delta.

Metron Wye-Delta Controllers incorporate a mechanical as well as electrical interlock to prevent the Wye connecting contactor from being energized at the same time as the Delta contactor.

An emergency start lever to close starting contactor independent of automatic control circuits. When used, this lever will bypass the reduced current start feature and start the motor with full inrush current drawn from the power source.

Standard Features Function - The MP700 series Soft Start electric fire pump controllers utilizes a state of the art solid state motor controller. The motor voltage is raised to an initial torque value. This is an adjustable value of locked rotor torque. The motor voltage is gradually increased during the acceleration ramp time. The acceleration ramp time is set to 10 seconds as required by NFPA 20, but it is adjustable from approximately 3 to 30 seconds.

After a minimum run period and all starting causes have returned to normal, the solid state controller will initiate a stop sequence. This function will reduce surges in the pumping system during stopping of a centrifugal pump by smoothly decelerating the motor at a selectable rate. This will reduce the possibility of surges occurring in the system.

Power Transfer Switches For Electric Motor Driven Fire Pumps

MP435 Fire Pump Controller with Automatic Transfer Switch All photographs and/or images are typical and may not represent actual product supplied

Series MTS Automatic Transfer Switch Metron MTS Automatic Transfer Switch provide operation of electric fire pump motors from a alternate source of power when the normal source fails. They may be used with any Metron electric fire pump controller— Across the Line, Primary Resistance, Part Winding, Wye-Delta, Auto Transformer or Solid State Reduced Voltage Types. These transfer switches are an integral part of the fire pump controller. They are factory assembled, shipped and installed as a part of the controller.

The combination fire pump controller/transfer switch is listed by Underwriters’ Laboratories’, Factory Mutual, and meets all the latest requirements of Chapter 10 of NFPA 20 Standard for Installation of Centrifugal Fire Pumps.

The MTS Automatic Transfer Switch is a mechanically held double throw switch with a fast acting drive mechanism. Operating coils are momentarily energized from the source to which the load is being transferred. The switch is interlocked electrically and mechanically to prevent both services form feeding the load at the same time. The transfer switch is capable of manual (non-electrical) operation.

Under voltage sensing devices are supplied which monitor each phase of normal service. When the voltage of any phase falls below the pre-set level the transfer switch automatically transfers to the alternate source. Voltage and frequency sensing devices are provided to monitor one phase of the alternate source and will inhibit transfer to the alternate source until adequate voltage and frequency are available.

The transfer switch provides a special circuit that de-energizes the motor control circuit five (5) second prior to transfer in either direction to prevent high current transients due to an out-of-phase condition between the motor and the source to which it is being connected.

A contact is provided to actuate the engine starting circuit when normal source fails. To prevent false starts, a time delay (factory set at 1/2 to 3 seconds) is provided between normal source failure and actuation of the engine start contact.

An isolation switch ahead of the alternate source input terminals of the transfer switch is provided. When the switch is opened, auxiliary contacts in the generator start circuit prevent starting if commanded to by the transfer switch. An additional auxiliary contact on the isolation switch is provided for remote annunciation of isolation switch position.

An adjustable time delay (0-30 min.) prevents restoration to normal service for a pre-set period of time to assure normal line stabilization.

An auxiliary N.O. contact is provided for remote annunciation of transfer to emergency. This contact is operated by the transfer mechanism as a direct indication of switch position.

Pilot lights for indication of Switch in Normal position, Switch in Emergency position, and Emergency Isolation Switch in Off. Audible indication of Emergency Isolation Switch in Off is also included.

A test switch is also provided which simulates loss of normal power so that the transfer switch operation can be checked without interrupting normal service to the fire pump controller.

Additive Pump Controller Diesel Engine Additive “Foam” Pump Controller


The Metron Model FD4F-J controller is designed to specifically meet the latest NFPA 20 and UL 218 standards for Diesel Engine Additive Pump Controllers.

This controller implements the latest component and microprocessor logic technology available. It incorporates years of experience in the design and manufacture of fire pump control systems.

The components are installed in a NEMA 2 dust and drip proof enclosure with optional NEMA 3R, 4, 4X, or 12 ratings available. The Operator Interface Device (OlD), manual start pushbuttons, stop push button and Auto-Off-Manual selector switch are located on the exterior door for easy access. The battery disconnect switches are located on the main mounting panel inside the enclosure. An internal variable has been added to control the pressure relieving dump valve. The dump valve contact must be supplied with an external power source for operation of the valve. The dump valve contact will close upon the controller receiving a start command such as a pressure drop or deluge valve signal. The dump valve will remain open after the engine starts for approximately 10 seconds.

The controller’s logic is based on discrete components using the latest technology with high quality, highly reliable printed circuit boards (PCBs) and PCB mounted relays. The controller uses a microprocessor to control automatic engine and alternation between batteries during cranking. It also monitors and records system alarms and pressure, battery voltage and engine functions. This controller is suitable for all engine types with either ‘energized to run’ or ‘energize to stop’ fuel solenoids.

Inside the controller are two independent fully automatic microprocessor controlled battery chargers rated at 10 Amps each. The battery chargers operate in such a manner as to ensure that the engine batteries are fully charged within 24 hours. PCB mounted LED’s are provided for indication of AC Power On, and Battery Power On.

The controller is supplied with wall mounting brackets as standard. It may be supplied with optional 24” (609.6 mm) legs for free standing floor or skid mounting. Stainless steel plumbing is provided as standard.

These controllers are for use on Across-the-Line type installations. Only the highest quality components, all UL listed or UL recognized, are used throughout to assure the best possible reliability. The cabinet is fabricated of heavy gauge reinforced steel with drip-proof hood. All field wiring and service connections may be made from the front, allowing the controller to be mounted flush against a wall. An internal variable has been added to control the pressure relieving dump valve. The dump valve contact must be supplied with an external power source for operation of the valve. The dump valve contact will close upon the controller receiving a start command such as a pressure drop or deluge valve signal. The dump valve will remain open after the engine starts for approximately 10 seconds.

Data logging: The controller includes separate data logs for storing system data that is readable through the OID or copied to a computer equipped with an SD card reader. If the controller is set for non pressure actuation there will not be any pressure logs provided. The data logs are as follows:

Pressure Log: The pressure log provides a continuous pressure record for 30 days. The pressure log samples shall be time and date stamped and stored in permanent non-volatile SD memory card. The pressure log can be searched by each sample, by minute, or by hour through the OID.(Not used on remote applications).



Options

Option H: Space Heater If the ambient atmosphere is especially damp, a space heater rated at 100 watts may be supplied to reduce moisture in the cabinet. A thermostat is supplied as standard with this option. A humidistat may be substituted if specified. Option W: Omit Legs For systems where the controller is mounted on a common skid with the pump and motor, the legs of the controller may be omitted, 3” (76.2mm) channels or wall mounting brackets can be supplied. If specified, lifting eyes may also be supplied.
