PCPS 12V pump with integrated AGB (Push-In)
innovatek received the Innovative through Research award from the Stifterverband The PCPS 12V pump v2 (type 1104) developed by innovatek and EHEIM is a powerful and at the same time very smooth-running synchronous centrifugal pump. Despite its compact dimensions, the 12V pump has a delivery head of up to 1.60 meters, with power consumption ranging from 3.7 to 4.0 watts, depending on the operating mode. The PCPS starts with a low pressure after switching on and then gently increases this to the operating pressure within about 3 seconds. In this way, the service life is increased and the mechanics of the 12V pump are effectively protected, with the included microprocessor controlling and monitoring the pump.
In addition to the pump itself, the compact housing also contains a coolant tank and a level switch (float switch). The coolant tank makes it very easy to fill and maintain the cooling system. The level switch monitors the coolant level inside the coolant tank and sends a signal via the alarm output in the event of an insufficient level.
The user can access the pump's control unit from under the easily removable electronics cover of the motor body (which can be removed without the use of force or tools by bending it slightly). Four programs are available as standard, whereby the desired program is set by means of a small 2-fold DIP switch and is read out when the 12V pump is started. To change the control, the two switches are set according to the following scheme:
| Silent 2: | SW1: Off | SW2: Off | 50 Hz |
| Silent 1: | SW1: On | SW2: Off | 57 Hz |
| Normal: | SW1: Off | SW2: On | 65 Hz |
| Power: | SW1: On | SW2: On | 74 Hz |
The PCPS 12V pump can be operated directly from a 12 V DC power supply. For mounting, the pump has four M4 threaded holes on the back. Thanks to the modern 2-pin push-in cable terminal, the pump can be used virtually anywhere. Inasmuch as a 4-pin connection is required, this can be quickly and easily implemented with the optional 12 V adapter to 4-pin Molex.
