6-2 Remote Starters and NEMA Panels
Pump tanks can be provided with electrical controls such as basic motor starters or elaborate
NEMA panels.
NEMA panels.
Motor starters or NEMA panels can be shipped loose for field installation or pre-mounted for
space saving convenience. Motor starters are equipped with on/off selector switches for
turning the pump on with overload relays to protect the motor when operating. On tower
systems, re-circulating pump and tower fan motor starter are also provided with thermostats
for proper temperature. The chiller provides the temperature control on chilled water
systems.

All starters require a 120-volt power source for the control circuit.
NEMA Panel Standard Features
The NEMA panel is a properly sized enclosure to house all the starters required for each
pump tank system. A control circuit transformer is also provided to create the 120 volt
control circuit needed for starters and thermostats. A power distribution block is provided to
bring in main power to the panel. All internal wiring is provided and selector switches and
indicator lights are provided on the NEMA panel door with labels to indicate each device.
