What Is It
uPAC is a digital automation device for residential & commercial applications. It can execute a schedule or a routine based task. For example, periodically turning ON the water pump in residential/commercial buildings. It can also be used in other applications where scheduled & periodic turn On/Off of electrical load is required.
Who Is It For
uPAC is for anyone who wants efficiency and luxury at minimum cost. Most residential & commercial building employs a dedicated human asset or a “caretaker” to periodically turn On/Off water pumps. uPAC is designed to remove or repurpose these human assets.
Why Use uPAC
- Stop water wastage and lower water bill.
- Stop electricity wastage and reduce electricity bill
- Improve safety and security of the building
Most of the “caretakers” are irresponsible. The task is simple and yet they are negligent. The overhead water tank may overflow for hours but the motor keeps running. Water overflows from the tank and electricity is wasted. The parking lot security lights may be ON at 12 noon. And sometimes, the “caretakers” are affiliated with robbers and thief. Automation can solve all these problems.
More Details
“uPAC” or “User Programmable Automation Controller” is a single user, single channel, user programmable control system, designed for residential and commercial non-critical applications. uPAC is a programmable automated control system that can execute a schedule or routine based tasks like periodically turning ON the water pump in residential/commercial buildings. The user have to set up the schedule just once and the “Set & forget” algorithm of uPAC will strictly follow the given schedule. The intuitive user interface and the LCD screen makes the device extremely easy & straightforward to use.
The output of the device has a UL Listed electromagnetic relay switch that is turned ON/OFF based on the schedule and the user requirement. The UL listed relay switch can handle enough power for any medium power residential/commercial requirement. In case of high power requirement, electromagnetic contactor from brands like Siemens, LS or ABB can be used to with the uPAC. Although the applications of the uPAC is limitless, this version has been tailored for controlling fluid pumps. Just by controlling fluid pumps, applications of uPAC can be extended from residential/commercial buildings to agriculture sector as an intelligent watering system for crops in “Smart farming” and in “Smart Nursery” for watering plants and trees in commercial nurseries and orchards. In general, uPAC can be used in any applications that require a strict daily schedule based simple task execution.
