The SC10 Pump Snore Controller is a compact, DIN-rail-mountable unit designed to automate and protect dewatering pumps in mining and construction environments. By continuously monitoring motor current via a 4–20 mA input, the SC10 detects “snoring” (dry-run) conditions and pauses the pump to prevent damage, reducing maintenance costs and downtime
Key Features
Adaptive Snore Control – Automatically calculates optimal run/pause durations using an adaptive algorithm based on recent pump activity
Quick Set-Point Configuration – Push-button adjustment of start/stop thresholds; no tools or electricians required
Analogue Input Scaling – DIP-switch selectable scaling for 4–20 mA CT inputs
Local & Remote Control – Supports both on-device push-buttons and external digital inputs (float switches, level switches, start/stop buttons)
Multiple Alarm Outputs – Relay outputs to signal fault-to-run, high-current, low-current, power status, and float conditions
Safety Features
Tool-Free Configuration – Adjust set-points and relay options via intuitive push buttons without opening live panels
Float Switch Inputs – Optional high/low-level float switch connections eliminate live-panel adjustments for maximum operator safety
Built-In Diagnostics – Continuous self-check of the current loop with automatic alarm relay activation to prevent overflow or pump damage
User Interface
Digital Current Display – Bright, two-digit LED shows real-time pump load current as a percentage
Status LEDs – Indicators for Power, Run/Pause, Alarm, Fail-to-Run, Hi/Lo Current, Start/Stop Input, and Float statuses
