Hilton,
ETAPump was Dankoff Solar's name for the Lorentz. Dankoff was the
first to bring Lorentz pumps to the Americas. Contact GenPro for
parts and service for the northern tier of the US.

Hello Wrenches,
I got a call last week to go out and look at a DC pump that had
stopped working. probably hit by lightning in our recent spate
of thunderstorms. The pump is a Dankoff 24V ETAPump. The
controller that got popped was a more recent style of
controller that uses a normal pressure switch. I replaced it
with their old spare controller, which uses a pressure switch
that closes when the pressure goes high. Luckily they still had
that switch.
The older style controller was cranky and had to be reset on a
regular basis, so they are looking for another controller like
the popped one. They don't seem to exist anymore. I know that
Dankoff got bought out by a bigger company (Conergy?). Is there
a controller for the old ETAPump being sold under another name?
Is there a compatible controller from another company? It seemed
to be one of those units like the Lorentz that turns 24/48 VDC
into some kind of 3-phase power. It also has a pressure switch
input and a low water input.
Thanks.
Hilton
