2.2 Application

The only application the PCC-BT series controllers are designed for is the interface between a solar module
array and a compatible brush type DC motor. Check with SunPumps, Inc. for motor compatibility.

No other applications or DC power sources are recommended or warrantied unless written
approval is provided by the SunPumps factory
.

3.0 Installation and Operation

The following sections are outlined in a step-by-step format to guide you through the installation and
configuration of a PCC-BT series controller. The procedure for installing the SCB, SCP or pump jack is not
in the scope of this manual. Any licensed pump contractor will be familiar with the proper installation
procedures. The installation and operation should be in accordance with local regulations, accepted codes
of good practice and common sense.

Before installing any pump system read all product manuals then review all system components to
become familiar with the physical and electrical layout.
Check all equipment for any product damage.
Refer to applicable figure(s) as a guide during the installation. Controller door must be closed during
normal operation.

Warning


Reverse polarity on a panel system capable of producing over 20 amps will result in
non-warrantied product damage. Please check polarity before connecting power to the
controller.

This controller is for brush type DC motors only. Do NOT use this controller for other
types of motors. Compatible motors must be used. Proper voltage and current rating
of the motor is essential. Be certain to set the current and voltage of the controller to
protect your motor. Proper sizing of the solar panel array will maximize the efficiency
and production of the system.
