1.2 Variants Figure 1 shows the terminals listed under positions 2 and 3.
The actual controller type, voltage variant, etc. are stated in the
type key on the nameplate situated on the side of the controller
cabinet.
The LC 108 is available for either direct-on-line starting or star-
delta starting.
The LC 108 can be connected and set to operation/control in 7
different ways, see sections 3. to 9.:

the signal values sent back to the controller may arise.
The installation must be carried out by authorized personnel in
accordance with local regulations. In such cases, it is recommended to use float switches.
Note: Cables of up to 100 metres can be connected between the
2.1 Location controller and the float switches.
The LC 108 controller and an EEx barrier, if required,

must not be installed in explosion hazard areas.
Only float switches approved for use in explosion
hazard areas may be used. The float switches must
be connected via an EEx barrier, e.g. Grundfos
number 96440300.
The LC 108 can be mounted at ambient temperatures ranging
from –30 °C to +50 °C.
Enclosure class: IP 65.
When installed outdoors, the LC 108 must be placed in a protec-
tive shed or cupboard.
The LC 108 must not be exposed to direct sunlight.
2.2 Mounting of LC 108 for direct-on-line starting

Before mounting, remove the transport protectors, if any, from
inside the cabinet.
Mount the LC 108:
• on a plane wall surface,
• with the Pg cable entries pointing downwards
(additional Pg cable entries, if required, must be fitted in the
bottom plate of the cabinet),
• with four screws through the mounting holes in the back plate
of the cabinet. The mounting holes must be bored with a 4 mm
bore. Fit the screws into the mounting holes and tighten
securely. Fit the plastic caps supplied with the controller on the
screws (IP 65).

Equipment used in explosion hazard areas must in

particular application. Furthermore, the cables into
the explosion hazard area must be laid in accordance
with local regulations.
Note: Float switches of the same type as Grundfos product
number 96003332 or 96003695, i.e. float switches with gold-
plated contacts suitable for low voltages and currents
(40 V/100 mA), must be used. All EEx-approved float switches
are also suitable.
The float switches must be connected as NO contacts, i.e. brown
and black leads, when float switches, Grundfos product number
96003332 or 96003695, are used.

3.5 Reset button and ON-OFF-AUTO selector switch
The reset button is a push-button for manual resetting of alarm signals to external alarm devices and the built-in
buzzer (i.e. not for resetting of the alarm memory as this is reset by means of the ON-OFF-AUTO selector switch,
see position OFF ( )).
Even if the fault condition still exists, the external alarm devices and the built-in buzzer will be reset when the reset
button is pressed.
The ON-OFF-AUTO selector switch has three different positions:
ON ( ), top position:
• The pump will start when the selector switch is pushed into this position (unless the motor protection relay has cut
out the pump).
• If the PTC resistance/thermal switch of the motor registers overtemperature, the pump will not be switched off.
Note: It is the user’s responsibility to decide how long the pump is to run with this fault indication. Over a long
period, the pump will be damaged!
In explosion hazard areas, switch 10 of the DIP switch must be set as stated in section 3.2. Consequently, the
pump cannot be started when the PTC resistance/thermal switch of the motor registers overtemperature.
OFF ( ), middle position:

1 • The pump cannot start when the selector switch has been set to this position.
• The alarm memory is reset by pushing the selector switch into position OFF ( ). The alarm memory is the light
indication of a fault condition which has disappeared. If a fault condition still exists when the selector switch is
pushed into position ON ( ) or AUTO ( ), the alarm indication will be repeated immediately.
AUTO ( ), bottom position:

• The pump is controlled by the input signals from the float switches and the pump according to the selected DIP
switch setting.
• Alarm signals will automatically be reset. Switch 9 of the DIP switch can, however, be set to manual resetting
which is carried out by means of the reset button, see section 3.2.
• The pump will restart automatically when a given fault condition disappears. However, this is dependent on the
setting of switch 10 of the DIP switch, see section 3.2.
• When the pump starts automatically after a fault condition which has disappeared, the indicator light will continue
to show the fault condition (alarm memory) and the indication can only be removed by resetting the alarm memory,
see position OFF ( ).

Before starting any work on pumps used to pump liquids which could be constituted as being hazardous to health, thorough
cleaning/venting of pumps, pits, etc. must be carried out according to local regulations.
Before making any connections in the LC 108 or work on pumps, pits, etc., it must be ensured that the electricity supply has
been switched off and that it cannot be accidentally switched on.
