Water Pump

Application Overview

EKS magnetic switch ICs are widely used in smart water pumps, booster pumps, and circulation pumps. With magnets mounted on the impeller or rotor, the IC non-contact acquires the rotating magnetic field signal and outputs pulses, monitoring pump speed and operating status in real time to achieve start/stop control and overload/no-load protection. The solid-state contactless structure withstands the damp, high-vibration working conditions of pumps over long periods.

Technical Features

Industry Challenges

  • - Weak environmental reliability: long-term dampness and high vibration in pumps cause traditional mechanical contacts to oxidize, jam, and fail, leading to high equipment failure rates.

  • - Unstable speed detection: pump speed fluctuates and start/stops are frequent; conventional devices miss pulses and respond slowly, disabling monitoring and protection.

  • - Poor noise immunity: strong electromagnetic interference from motors easily causes false triggering and abnormal signals, leading to unstable control.

  • - Low assembly compatibility: cramped pump space and large assembly tolerances mean ordinary ICs with insufficient sensitivity have poor production fit.

Solutions

WeEKS series xMR magnetic switch ICs provide a highly reliable and adaptable dedicated detection solution. Core advantages:


  • - Solid-state high reliability, tolerance of harsh conditions: pure solid-state contactless design, undaunted by dampness, vibration, and shock, with no wear or oxidation, greatly extending equipment service life.

  • - Full-speed accurate detection: 14 kHz high response frequency covering the full pump speed range, no pulse loss, ensuring accurate and stable speed monitoring and protection.

  • - High sensitivity, wide adaptability: low-field triggering at 5 Gs, tolerant of assembly air gap error, suited to cramped spaces, lowering assembly difficulty and raising production yield.

  • - Excellent noise immunity: strong EMC capability, effectively shielding motor electromagnetic interference, preventing false triggering, and ensuring stable system operation.

  • - Easy mass production, high cost performance: multiple packages suit various PCB layouts, with controllable cost and stable supply, suited to industry mass production and domestic substitution.
