Type SLC-C

The Shipco® Type SLC-C is an economical method of automating functions on a Shipco® condensate unit. The SLC-C can monitor receiver status locally and remotely. Continuous level and temperature readings are sent to the SLC-C enabling it to perform various functions such as display status, read level set points, signal alarms, control pumps on a condensate unit. A separate method of pump alternation is not needed. The SLC-C is a programmable NEMA 4X controller featuring a full color touchscreen display. Support for building automation protocols including Modbus and BACnet are available.

If you have existing float switches or prefer to use them, the SLC-C will provide run status of pumps, trigger an alarm if a high-water float switch is available, and read temperature if a separate thermocouple is provided.

Features
