Pneumatic Start Stop Units

The Air Operated Diaphragm Start Stop Units are designed to seamlessly integrate into your existing Diaphragm Pump systems and can also be used in conjunction with some of our other pneumatic systems such as the Batch Controller (TPUK-BP), Timed Batcher (TPUK-BT) and Manually Started Level Control System (TPUK-LM). These units provide increased functionality and flexibility to the pump installation and allow for control of the pump or system from a remote local up to 20m away from the controller or pump.

TPUK-SSE-24VDC: enables Start/Stop functionality through a 24V DC electrical supply
TPUK-SSE-110VAC: provides Start/Stop capabilities via a 110V AC electrical supply
TPUK-SSE-240VAC: facilitates Start/Stop actions using a 240V AC electrical supply
TPUK-SSP: initiates Start/Stop functions pneumatically for pumps
TPUK-SSR: designed for pneumatic remote Start/Stop operations

Overview Specifications

How do Pneumatic Start Stop Units work?

The SSE control unit allows an AODD Pump to be started and stopped via a low power electrical signal from an external control source such as a PLC. The system incorporates a low power 3/2 NC solenoid valve to convert an electrical input signal into a pneumatic output signal that pilots a blocking/needle valve mounted directly onto the pump.

It can also be used to start any of the manually started TPUK systems. An electrical input pulse from a control system applied to the SSE system is converted into a pneumatic output pulse starting the associate TPUK system.
