specifications, if not injury may occur and/or damage to unit.
Do not touch any rotating pump or motor components: injury
may occur.
Do not run pump dry, unless designed for that service.
Running dry is harmful to the pump, and will cause excessive
heating due to internal friction.
Check pump rotation and inlet/outlet pump port orientation
before connecting power to pump. If not injury may occur.
When pulling out cords from outlets do not pull cord, grasp
plug to prevent plug damage or electrical shock.

1.0 General Description
The V300 Stroke Rate Controller provides precision
flow control for FMI variable speed "V" Series pumps.
The V300 accomplishes this by varying the pump
stroke rate from 5% to 100% of the drives rated speed
range of 90 to 1800 Strokes per Minute (SPM). The
complete pump system consists of the V300 Controller
and a variable speed "V" Series Pump. The V300 and
pump are connected via a single cable (standard
length is 4 meters while optional extension cables up to
20 meters are readily available).
The pump is comprised of a 90 volt DC pump drive
module (PDM) with integrally mounted pump head
module (PHM), and is available in two configurations,
QV and RHV, to accommodate FMI's full range of
pump head sizes.

3.0 Installation & Setup
3.1 Installation:
The V300 modules are designed to operate on a Table-
top or as a Wall-mount (secured to a wall panel - see
Figure 4 for template)
3.1.1 Table-top:
The system is configured for table top installation ini-
tially with rubber grommets slid into the mounting slots.
Before moving on to configuring the control module,
make sure that these rubber grommets are in place.
There are no further installation steps for table top use.
3.1.2 Wall-Mounting:
For wall mounting, it is necessary to remove the four
rubber grommets from the control module before
attempting to mount. Each unit must be mounted in the
correct orientation; with the labels facing right side up,
the control module will have the cables at the bottom,
the pump module will have the pump mounted to the
bottom as well. Wall mounting may require an appro-
priate mounting board of at least 1/2(12mm) thickness
to straddle the studs of a typical plasterboard wall. See
Figure 4
Caution:
Do not mount V300 Controller or Pump
Modules directly to plaster board.
3.2 Setup:
The configuration is set by selecting one of four inter-
face modes accomplished with a 'set and forget' screw-
driver slotted mode switch located on the front panel.
The controller also incorporates a screwdriver slotted
pump reversing switch on the front panel to facilitate
special maintenance requirements. In all cases, the
stroke rate is limited to a minimum of 5.0% and a max-
imum of 100.0% providing a stroke rate of 90 (5.0%)
to 1800 (100.0%) strokes per minute.
The reversing switch is marked as "REV", "OFF", and
"FWD". It must be set to "FWD" for normal operation.
(See Figure 1)
Note: If the reversing switch is changed while the
motor is running, the control module will shut down the
pump and wait until the user presses "RUN". If the
switch is left in the "OFF" position, the display will indi-
cate a steady "OFF" condition.
The "RUN" button will start the pump drive module.
The display will indicate the current stroke rate. The
"STOP" button will immediately stop the pump and the
display will alternate between "OFF" and the current
stroke rate. The pump will remain "OFF" until the user
presses "RUN".
Caution: Do not attempt to apply power to the control
unit until it is configured to one of the following modes.
3.2.1
Manual Mode
Use this mode if you want to control the stroke rate
manually. This mode allows you to select a stroke rate
by pressing the up and down arrows located next to the
2
!
! display. The stroke rate is displayed as a percentage
of the fastest rate. If you attempt to go beyond these
limits, the display will show three dashes indicating you
have reached a limit.
To run the V300 system in manual mode, simply turn
the Mode Switch to "MANUAL" using a screwdriver.
Note: In manual mode, the motor will not start until the
user presses the "RUN" button. This allows the user to
adjust the stroke rate prior to starting the pump. The
last stroke rate to be selected before turning off the
power will be the stroke rate stored for the next power
up.
3.2.2
Analog Input Modes
General Note: While configured for a remote inter-
face, the actual percentage of the Stroke Rate
Maximum is displayed on the LCD for easy monitoring.
a) 0-5 Volt Mode: Use this mode to remotely control
the stroke rate with a voltage source of 0 to 5 VDC.
This voltage level interface utilizes the "ANALOG
INPUT" connector on the control module to connect to
the user's voltage source. (see figure 2)
Standard RG58 or other coaxial cable should be uti-
lized for inducted noise immunity. The 0-5 volt inter-
face requires approximately 2 mA of drive current at 5
volts thus making it compatible with most analog volt-
age interface modules. The stroke rate is displayed as
a percentage of the fastest rate. The stroke rate is lim-
ited to a minimum of 5.0% and a maximum of 100.0%.
If the control voltage is less then the minimum of 5.0%
the display will alternate three dashes and the control
value, indicating you are under the limit.
To run the V300 system in 0-5 V mode, simply turn the
Mode Switch to "0-5 V" using a screwdriver (see Fig 1).
0-5 Volt input specifications:
Isolated input:
limited to ± 30 VDC from
earth ground.

Caution:
If power is applied to the control unit
while in 0-5 V mode, the motor will start automatically if
the input voltage is 225 mV or above. The "STOP" and
"RUN" buttons will stop and start the pump while in the
0-5 VDC mode however the up down arrows are not
functional in this mode.
b) 0-10 Volt Mode:
Use this mode to remotely control the stroke rate with
a voltage input source of 0 to 10 VDC. This voltage
level interface utilizes the "ANALOG INPUT" connector
on the control module to connect to the user's voltage
source. Standard RG58 or other coaxial cable should
be utilized for inducted noise immunity. (See Figure 2
for cable connections)
The 0-10 VDC interface requires approximately 1 mA
of drive current at 10 VDC thus making it compatible
with most analog voltage interface modules. The
stroke rate is displayed as a percentage of the fastest
rate. The stroke rate is limited to a minimum of 5.0%
and a maximum of 100.0%. If the control voltage is
less then the minimum of 5.0% the display will alternate
three dashes and the control value, indicating you are
under the limit.
To run the V300 system in 0-10 V Mode, simply turn the
Mode Switch to "0-10 V" using a screwdriver. (
