Pump Control Panels in Western Canada
Protect the Pump. Control the System.
Sego designs and builds pump control panels for motor protection, sequencing, duty/standby operation, alarms and application-specific control requirements across Western Canada.
Where Pump Controls Matter Most
Protecting a Motor From Its Failure Modes
Dry running, overload, phase loss and other abnormal conditions can damage pumps and motors if they are not detected quickly.
What matters: Motor protection · Sensors · Shutdown logic
Coordinating Multiple Pumps
Duplex and multi-pump systems need sequencing that balances runtime, responds to demand and maintains backup capacity.
What matters: Lead/lag logic · Alternation · Redundancy
Meeting a Project Specification
Engineered projects may require defined controls, alarms, communication and documentation before the panel can be built.
What matters: Sequence of operation · I/O requirements · Documentation
What Defines the Right Control Panel?
The right system starts with understanding where the water comes from, how much is needed and what the system has to deliver.
01
Motor & Pump Configuration
Motor horsepower, voltage, phase and the number of pumps determine the basic panel architecture.
02
Control Method
The application may require simple start/stop control, level-based control, pressure control, sequencing or variable-speed operation.
03
Inputs & Sensors
Pressure switches, floats, level transducers, flow switches and other field devices determine what the panel needs to monitor.
04
Alarms & Protection
High level, low level, overload, dry run, seal failure and other alarm conditions may need to be monitored and acted on.
05
Communication
Remote monitoring, BAS/SCADA integration or other communications may be required depending on the application.
06
Environment
Indoor, outdoor, washdown, corrosive or hazardous conditions influence enclosure selection and panel construction.
Control Panel or VFD System?
A traditional control panel manages protection, sequencing and operation. A VFD system also varies motor speed to match system demand. Some applications require one; others require both.
What Goes Into a Pump Control Panel
A properly engineered pump control panel brings motor protection, switching, indication and operating logic together around the pump system and application.
Motor Protection
Protect pumps and motors from overload, dry-run, phase and other damaging operating conditions.
Starting & Control
Use direct, soft-start or contactor control matched to the motor and application.
Duty/Standby Switching
Automatically alternate pumps and provide backup operation in multi-pump systems.
Enclosure & Indication
Match the enclosure and status indication to site conditions, operating needs and environment.
