Top-Up Controller TCS 5 Series
Level Control/Mains Water Top-up Kit
Description
A simple, compact and reliable mains water top-up controller with optional pump isolation versions too, for both direct pressurised, and indirect (header tank) rainwater systems. All TCS5 controllers are designed to work in conjunction with an automatic pump.
The float switch constantly monitors the level of water in the rainwater or header tank. If there is too little rainwater in the tank, the controller automatically adds a measured amount of mains water to ensure continued availability of water. The exact amount of water topped up can be adjusted by manually adjusting the float switch.
The TCS5 Controller is not supplied in a fixed housing or box. This allows the components to be wall mounted separately. This flexible solutions accommodates the constraints of installation in small domestic properties which often involve restricted spaces (e.eg under sink, or behind a washing machine).
TCS5 Series Controllers are available with a variety of float switch lengths to suit various installations. A pump controlling version is also available, which will isolate the pump while topping up. All TCS5 controllers are designed to work in conjunction with an automatic pump.
The new low voltage options (TCS5JBL and TCS5JBLA) are suitable for irrigation applications.
A range of suitable stainless steel rainwater pumps are also available. We also manufacture pump bases to suit more basic “bottom suction ” type pumps, allowing the fitting of a floating intake.
