DAB EUROINOX 50/506 with MASCONTROL for On-Demand Pressure
This package combines DAB's EUROINOX 50/506 M horizontal booster pump with a MASCONTROL electronic controller. The pump body is stainless steel, while the impellers, diffusers and diffuser bodies are technopolymer. Its 1.36 HP motor (1 kW output) runs on 115/230V, 60 Hz single phase. Current draw is about 14.6 A on 115V and 7.4 A on 230V. Flow spans 1 to 32 GPM, with a maximum head of about 236 ft, or 102 psi. Suction and discharge are both 1 in NPT. The shaft and seal holder are AISI 304 stainless, and the mechanical seal is carbon and ceramic. The motor support is die-cast aluminum with stainless adjustment rings. A built-in 80 µF capacitor and thermal overload protection handle starting and motor safety. Maximum operating pressure for the pump is 116 psi.
Running a Multistage Centrifugal Pump on MASCONTROL
The controller takes over the job a pressure switch and tank would normally do. When a valve opens and pressure falls, MASCONTROL starts the pump. It keeps running while water flows, then shuts off once every outlet closes. A built-in sensor detects a dry or blocked inlet and stops the pump at once, lighting a failure lamp. After the fault is fixed, a restart button brings it back online. Following a power cut, the unit resets and restarts by itself. For growers, that means drip zones and spray lines see steady pressure without a large tank on the floor. The pump can lift water from as deep as 26 ft, so it also works from a below-grade cistern. Install it horizontally, fixed in place or as a portable unit, and keep the water clean and free of abrasives. Liquid temperature should stay between 32 and 95°F for domestic use, with ambient air up to 104°F.
Key Features
- On-demand control: MASCONTROL starts the pump when pressure drops and stops it when flow ends, with no pressure switch to set.
- Dry-run shutdown: A built-in sensor cuts power the moment the inlet runs dry or blocks, protecting the seal and impellers.
- Stainless pump body: The EUROINOX housing resists corrosion in damp pump rooms and on treated water.
- Dual-voltage motor: The 1.36 HP motor wires for 115V or 230V to suit the supply on site.
- High head for long runs: Up to 236 ft of head pushes water to distant zones and raised storage tanks.
- Auto restart after power loss: The controller resets itself when power returns, so irrigation resumes without a site visit.
