The Mercoid
MPC Junior Pump Controller provides versatile
level control in a standard 1/4 DIN package. Designed for
use with almost any style level transmitter the unit displays
the present level and main set point value. Incorporated
in the MPC Jr. is programmable level differential for on/off
control of one or two pumps, valves, or other devices through
two SPDT relays. Also featured are two additional programmable
alarm contacts with front alarm light indication.
The MPC Jr. is flexible and incorporates
a user-friendly programming menu. The front face meets NEMA
4X for outdoor panel mounting.
