intervention time of the protection in case of excessive absorption is inversely proportional to the
overload, therefore a slight overload shall trigger longer intervention times while a great overload will
lead to a rapid interruption. The parameter can be set at a value between 0.5 a 9.7 A. When the device is

PID Control: This parameter is used to set the speed of reaction of the
system to changes in pressure (accelerations and decelerations). Low PID
values represent a slow but more accurate reaction (more gradual start and
stop) while the higher values of this parameter can be used for a higher
reaction speed. When the system is unstable (pressure oscillations with
Minimum frequency: Use this parameter to set the minimum frequency of
the motor pump power supply (i.e. the number of rotations). The value is
expressed as percentage of the maximum frequency value. The parameter
can be set at the following values: 50, 60 or 70%. For surface pumps a 50%
minimum frequency is recommended as set by the manufacturer, for
pumps submersed up to a depth of 8-10 metres a 60% value is
Imax: this parameter is used to set the maximum current that must be
absorbed by the motor pump in ordinary conditions, so that the motor will
stop in case of excessive absorption. The motor shall stop also if the
current measured during operation is lower than 0.5 A following the
interruption of the connection between the motor and the Sirio. The
