To create an E.sybox unit,
- Access the “Installer Menu” using the buttons and press and hold the button until “AS” appears on the display. “No Dev” is shown on the pump if it is not associated with any other component.
- Press and hold the button on the pump for 5 sec until the blue LED under the display starts to flash.
Repeat the same procedure for the next pump to be added to the pressure booster unit. A maximum of 4 pumps can be added to a unit.
Once the pumps are associated, the components of the unit are shown on the pump display and the blue LED remains steady.
Once the pump unit has been created, it can be connected to the DConnect Box to enable remote control:
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for any of the pumps in the unit that has just been created.
Within 45 sec, press and hold the left key of the D.Connect Box for 5 sec until you hear a beep. The wireless LED of the D.Connect Box will flash and then remain steady once it is associated with the pump unit.
To check successful association, open the “AS” menu on the pump display and you should see a new component in the unit called “D.Box”
Referring to the manual, check that the individual pumps are updated and update them if necessary.
Press and hold the left key of the DConnect Box for 5 sec until you hear a beep. The wireless LED of the DConnect Box will start to flash.
Within 45 seconds,
- access the “Installer Menu” on the display of the E.sybox to be added using the buttons and press and hold the button until “AS” appears on the display. “No Dev” is shown on the pump if it is not associated with any other component.
- Press and hold the button on the pump for 5 sec until the blue LED under the display starts to flash.
The blue LED on the pump will start to flash and then remain steady once it is associated with the D.Connect Box.
To check successful association, open the “AS” menu on the pump display and you should see a new component.
For all the information we advise you to consult the instruction manual of the DConnect Box 2.
First you need to check that the individual pumps are updated to the latest version, and if necessary update. Next, hold down the left button of the DConnect Box 2 Box for 5 seconds until you hear a beep and the wireless connection status LED starts flashing.
Now, within 45 seconds on the Esybox to add: access the "Installer Menu" by pressing the buttons simultaneously for a few seconds, then press the button until the abbreviation "AS" appears on the display.
If the Esybox is not associated with any other component, the word "No Dev" will appear.
- Press and hold the pump button for 5 seconds until the blue led under the display starts flashing. The DConnect Box 2 wireless connection LED will start to flash, remaining fixed once associated with the pump group. If the association was successful by checking the "AS" menu, a new component will appear on the display.

- Floats and level probes cannot be used at the same time.
- Level probes can only be used with clear, clean water.
- The maximum level and minimum level alarms can be generated by floats or by level probes, or, if the depth sensor is used, by thresholds of the value read by the sensor itself.
It is possible, to use the alarm inputs so that the pumps stop in the case of reaching the maximum level, or too high motor temperature. In the case of an alarm, the pumps stop, the buzzer sounds, the corresponding alarm outputs are activated. For more information you can read the NgPanel instruction manual.
- Overloads and excess temperature with automatic reset
- Excess currents in pumps (overload protection)
- Abnormal voltages
- Lack of phase and thermal protection KK
- Dry operation
- Rapid restarts
- Inconsistency of floats and/or probes
- Blocking of the pumps
For dry run protection: the panel has an input for dry run protection, signaled by a float immersed in the pump tank that the panel controls. The device must be connected to the S contact of the NgPanel, and positioned in the tank at a level that ensures that the pump is not damaged as a result of dry running (consult the installation and operation instructions of the product used). For thermal protection of the motors: the device has an input for the thermal protection of each motor. If the motor used is equipped with thermal protection, this protection can be connected to the KK terminals. If the protection is not present in the motor, the terminals must be bridged. For further information, we recommend reading the NgPanel instruction manual.

- twin groups
- multi-pump groups
By twin group we mean a pumping group made up of a single pump body on which two motors are mounted.
By multi-pump group we mean a group made up of several identical pump, motor and variable frequency drive elements. Each element shares both the suction and the delivery. Each pump, before flowing into the delivery manifold, must have a non-return valve.
Twin Group Connections
In twin groups the pressure sensor must be connected to the left variable frequency drive (looking at the group from the motor fan side so that the fluid flow goes from bottom to top). For correct operation of the twin system it is necessary that all the external connections of the input terminal block are connected in parallel between the variable frequency drives respecting the numbering of the individual terminals.
If a banging noise is heard during the switch between turning off one motor and turning on the other, then proceed as follows: 1) access the Multipump Group menu page;
2) select the item “Configuration of multipump group parameters”; 3) follow the procedure up to the "Exchange time" item;
4) increase the “Exchange Time” value until the noise disappears;
For further information we recommend consulting the NgDrive instruction manual.
The variable frequency drive accepts the 0 – 5V ratiometric pressure sensor.
The cable must be connected on one side to the sensor and on the other to the specific pressure sensor input of the variable frequency drive.
The cable has two different terminations with mandatory insertion direction: connector for industrial applications (DIN 43650) on the sensor side and 4-pole connector on the variable frequency drive side.
For further information we recommend consulting the NgDrive instruction manual.
Il sensore di flusso viene fornito assieme al proprio cavo. Il cavo deve essere collegato da un lato al sensore e dall'altro all'apposito ingresso sensore di flusso dell'inverter.
Il cavo presenta due diverse terminazioni con verso di inserzione obbligato: connettore per applicazioni industriali (DIN 43650) lato sensore e connettore a 6 poli lato inverter.
The sensors can be connected to only one variable frequency drive.
Data communication between the variable frequency drives takes place via wireless, however it is recommended to fit the communication cable to strengthen the system in the event of a fault in order to be able to read the sensors even if connected to a faulty or switched off variable frequency drive. For correct operation of the multi variable frequency drive system it is necessary that all the external connections of the input terminal block are connected in parallel between the variable frequency drives respecting the numbering of the individual terminals. The only exception is the disable functionality which can be set on any of the 4 inputs and allows you to disable the variable frequency drive; in this case the command can also be distinguished for each variable frequency drive.
