With the Remote Tank Switch (RTS) accessory you can automatically control filling of remote tanks. The RTS is used where the tank that is being filled is too far away to use a LORENTZ "Tank Full Switch" accessory.

Important: The Remote Tank Switch used with the S1-200 is not compatible with the S1-700 system. The two versions differ in size, and the S1-200 RTS includes hose connection adaptors. Please refer to the respective datasheet for detailed specifications.

The Remote Tank Switch is installed on the discharge pipe (or hose) close to the pump controller. A float valve (not included) is installed in the tank situated at the end of the discharge line.
The RTS also includes a non-return valve to prevent water flowing back through the pipe into the water source.
The non return valve reduces the pipe refill time when the pump is switching on and off.

When the tank is empty, the float valve opens, activating the pump through the Remote Tank Switch. If the tank is full, the float valve closes and stops the water flow. This action triggers the controller to stop the pump, via a signal coming from the Remote Tank Switch.
Every 15 minutes, the controller will start to analyze whether the tank needs to be filled or not. (changeable value in S-Connect app).

The following example shows the S1-200, the same fuction also applies to the S1-700.

Below is a video showing how to correctly connect the accessory to the controller. (This example shows S1-200, the connection also applies to the S1-700)

The activation of the Remote Tank Switch must be done only through the S-Connect app by following the instructions below:

• Log into the S-Connect app and select your pumping system.
• Select "Settings" and then "Advanced Settings".
• Activate the "Tank Switch" button and then select "Remote Tank Switch".
• The default value of the "Start-up Time" is set for operation at the maximum pump head. Adjust this value if your system is running with a lower head.
• The "Retry Time" can be adjusted if necessary. This determines how often the controller checks, (by default every 15 minutes) whether the tank needs to be refilled.
• Apply the changes.

Important: Make sure to select the correct "Pump end", refer to the article below for more information:
