{"product_id":"davey-torrium2-intelligent-pump-controller","title":"Davey Torrium2 Intelligent Pump Controller - Constant Pressure, Run Dry Protection, TT45 \u0026 TT70 NZ","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Davey Torrium2 is an intelligent pump controller that switches your pump on when water is needed and off when demand drops — delivering constant flow and even pressure without cycling. It senses pressure and flow simultaneously, cutting in when pressure drops to 80% of the pump's last shut-off pressure and stopping when flow falls to approximately 1 lpm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMultiple protection layers are built in: dry run detection with automatic retry, high water temperature cut-out, excessive current protection, and surge protection via a metal oxide varistor. The Torrium2 also distinguishes between genuine demand and small leaks — reducing unnecessary cycling caused by dripping taps or leaking cisterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in four variants across two pressure ranges and two installation types.

When you open a tap, pressure drops. The Torrium2 detects this and starts the pump immediately — cutting in at 80% of the previous shut-off pressure. When you close the tap, flow drops to approximately 1 lpm and the Torrium2 stops the pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor very small flows (dripping taps, leaking cisterns), the Torrium2 reduces its cut-in pressure to as low as 50% of last shut-off head, minimising unnecessary starts. When genuine demand resumes above 0.5 lpm, it returns to normal operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe spring-loaded built-in accumulator provides a small draw-off buffer to smooth minor fluctuations. For higher draw-off capacity, an optional pressure tank (up to 18L) can be mounted on the vertical outlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the pump loses prime, the Torrium2 shuts it down and automatically retries at escalating intervals — starting at 5 minutes and extending to 32 hours. This reduces downtime while protecting the pump from sustained dry running.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFull technical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n

on\/off pressure switch on your pump with an intelligent controller. It starts the pump when you open a tap and stops it when you close it — without the cycling and pressure fluctuations a basic pressure switch causes. It also protects the pump from dry running, overheating, and electrical faults.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference between the TT45 and TT70?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth have identical features and specifications. The only difference is the recommended pump shut-off head range — TT45 is for lower-pressure pumps (150–450 kPa), TT70 is for higher-pressure pumps (450–700 kPa). Match the Torrium2 to your pump's shut-off head. If you're unsure, get in touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's the difference between pre-wired (TT45\/TT70) and plug and play (TT45\/S, TT70\/S)?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePre-wired models are designed for direct electrical connection to the pump motor wiring at installation — they come with a standard 3-pin plug for the wall and a wiring chamber for the pump motor connection. Plug and play models have both a male and female 3-pin plug, so you can connect them inline between the pump's existing power lead and the wall socket — no wiring required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does dry run protection do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the pump loses its water supply and runs dry, the Torrium2 shuts it down to prevent damage. It then automatically retries at escalating intervals: 5 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 hours. If mains pressure returns during a pressure boosting application, the Torrium2 will also detect this and restart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat happens if there's a power surge?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe built-in metal oxide varistor (MOV) absorbs surges and spikes to protect the controller's electronics. The MOV is a sacrificial component — if consumed by repeated surges, it will blacken the viewing port on the back of the unit. A blackened viewing port indicates a non-warrantable failure caused by power events.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the LED indicators for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed = system in standby. Green = pump running. Yellow = fault condition. The yellow LED comes on when the Torrium2 has detected a fault — dry run, over-temperature, or excessive current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I install it myself?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plug and play models (TT45\/S, TT70\/S) are straightforward to install inline — no wiring required. The pre-wired models require connecting the pump motor wiring to the Torrium2's terminal block. If you're not comfortable with electrical wiring, have a licensed electrician or plumber do this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a pressure vessel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot for standard installations. The Torrium2 has a built-in spring-loaded accumulator that handles minor fluctuations and reduces cycling. For installations with higher draw-off requirements, an optional pressure tank of up to 18L can be mounted on the vertical outlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it suitable for outdoor installation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — IP56 rated for dust-tight and water-jet resistant operation.
