Chase Simplex Pump Pak
The Chase Controls Pump Pak single phase capacitor (Start/Run) simplex control panel is designed to control a single 208VAC or 240VAC single phase pump in water and wastewater applications up to 10HP.
The Chase Controls Pump Pak three phase simplex control panel is designed to control a single 208VAC or 240VAC three phase pump in water and wastewater applications up to 10HP.
The Pump Pak features a simple touch pad on the inner door for controlling and monitoring pump operation. An optional Graphical Touch Display is available for programming, status, level, and float operation monitoring. The standard Pump Pak operates with four wet well level switches: Pump Lead Start, Pump Lag Start, Pump Stop, and High Level Alarm.
The optional “SumpMate” level sensor is a pressure transducer that senses the liquid level in the wet well and sends an 4-20mA analog signal to the Pump Pak. Pump activation level set points can be adjusted by using the Graphical Touch Display.
Simplex System Operations
Chase Controls Pump Pak panels are designed to operate with three or four floats for pump sequencing. The standard float functions are common pump off, lead pump start (two floats), and alarm (three floats).
Float Operation:
As the liquid level rises past the off float and tips it to the ON (Closed) position, the panel will remain inactive. As the liquid level tips the lead float, the lead pump will start. The pump will remain ON until the liquid level drops below the off float and all floats are in the OFF (Open) position.
If the pump fails to start a pump fail alarm is activated.
If the liquid rises and tips the alarm float to the ON (Closed) position the high level alarm is activated.
Alarm Indicator and Horn:
When an alarm condition occurs, a red light and a horn will be activated. If the test/reset/silence button is pressed, the horn will be silenced. When the alarm condition is cleared, the alarm system is reset. The alarm system can be tested by pressing the test/reset/silence button during normal, non-alarm operation.
HOA Switch:
A hand-off-automatic switch is provided. In the hand mode, the pump will turn ON unless other safety features are employed. In the automatic mode, the pump will turn ON from commands by the float switches.
Pump Run Lights:
Each pump has a run light. The run light will be ON in either the hand or automatic mode when the pump is called to run and the motor contactor has engaged.
Control / Alarm Light:
The alarm light will illuminate when an alarm condition exists, such as a high alarm float is tipped, a pump has failed to start, or a pump thermal sensor has opened.
Motor Protective Switch:
A motor protective switch is supplied for each pump to provide an adjustable overload, branch circuit protection and disconnect. The overload must be set in the field. To set the overload, dial the amp scale to the pump’s full load amp rating (FLA). If the FLA’s are unknown, use a calibrated amp meter to measure the pump amperage draw under loaded conditions. An auxiliary contact is wired in series with the magnetic contactor coil so that on an overload trip, the motor protective switch must be reset.
Seal Failure Circuit and Indicator Light:
The seal fail circuit has resistance sensitivity and will sense the presence of water in the pump seal chamber. Upon installation, turn the sensitivity dial on the seal fail module to the point where the light turns ON, then dial back slowly until the light turns OFF. If water enters the seal chamber at this point, the seal fail circuit will sense the change in resistance. After a short time delay, the indicator light will turn ON. When the condition is cleared, the seal fail circuit will de-energize and the indicator light will turn OFF.
Thermal Cutout:
The thermal cutout is wired in series with the magnetic contactor coil. If the pump’s thermal switch opens on high temperature, the contactor will turn off and stop the pump. A pump fail alarm is then activated, which will also activate the alarm light and horn. When the thermal switch cools and closes, the pump will remain in a fail state until the pump’s HOA switch, OFF position is selected, which will clear the pump fail, and allow the magnetic contactor to turn on if the pump is called to run.
Chase Duplex Pump Pak
The Chase Controls Pump Pak single phase capacitor (Start/Run) duplex control panel is designed to control a single 208VAC or 240VAC single phase pump in water and wastewater applications up to 10HP.
The Chase Controls Pump Pak three phase duplex control panel is designed to control a single 208VAC or 240VAC three phase pump in water and wastewater applications up to 10HP.
The Pump Pak features a simple touch pad on the inner door for controlling and monitoring pump operation. An optional Graphical Touch Display is available for programming, status, level, and float operation monitoring. The standard Pump Pak operates with four wet well level switches: Pump Lead Start, Pump Lag Start, Pump Stop, and High Level Alarm.
The optional “SumpMate” level sensor is a pressure transducer that senses the liquid level in the wet well and sends an 4-20mA analog signal to the Pump Pak. Pump activation level set points can be adjusted by using the Graphical Touch Display.
Duplex System Operations
Chase Controls Pump Pak panels are designed to operate with three or four floats for pump sequencing. The standard float functions are common pump off, lead pump start, lag pump start (three floats), and alarm (four floats).
Float Operation:
As the liquid level rises past the off float and tips it to the ON (Closed) position, the panel will remain inactive. As the liquid level tips the lead float, the lead pump will start. If the liquid level continues to rise and tips the lag float, the lag pump will start. Both pumps will remain ON until the liquid level drops below the off float and all floats are in the OFF (Open) position. When both pumps have stopped running, the control board alternator will switch the lead pump and lag pump operating functions in the next sequence.
If the pump fails to start the alternator will also switch the lead and lag pump operating functions. A pump fail alarm is also activated.
If the liquid rises and tips the alarm float to the ON (Closed) position the high level alarm is activated.
Alarm Indicator and Horn:
When an alarm condition occurs, a red light and a horn will be activated. If the test/reset/silence button is pressed, the horn will be silenced. When the alarm condition is cleared, the alarm system is reset. The alarm system can be tested by pressing the test/reset/silence button during normal, non-alarm operation.
HOA Switch:
A hand-off-automatic switch is provided. In the hand mode, the pump will turn ON unless other safety features are employed. In the automatic mode, the pump will turn ON from commands by the float switches.
Pump Run Lights:
Each pump has a run light. The run light will be ON in either the hand or automatic mode when the pump is called to run and the motor contactor has engaged.
Control / Alarm Light:
The alarm light will illuminate when an alarm condition exists, such as a high alarm float is tipped, a pump has failed to start, or a pump thermal sensor has opened.

A pump fail alarm is then activated, which will also activate the alarm light and horn. When the thermal switch cools and closes, the pump will remain in a fail state until the pump’s HOA switch, OFF position is selected, which will clear the pump fail, and allow the magnetic contactor to turn on if the pump is called to run.
