Take Control with the Ion Genesis®
Metropolitan’s Ion Genesis® smart sensing controller gives users control of all vital pumping options.
The development of our Ion™ Digital Level Control float switch opened the door for the development of new products within the Ion product line including our user-programmable smart sensing controller, the Ion Genesis®.
To put in the most simplistic terms possible, the Ion Genesis® is the most complete pump controller on the market, providing the most features and safeguards against the devastation of flooding.
The Ion Genesis® comes complete with dual Ion™ Digital Level Control float switches which continuously diagnose and report real-time critical pumping information to the controller. The controller itself gives users control of all vital aspects of pumping and efficiently cycles pumps to minimize pump turn-on cycles, ultimately adding life to the pump itself.
Metropolitan Salesperson James Spurney said everything starts with Ion™ Digital Level Control float switches, which are used in place of standard float switches. These sensors are the most reliable on the market and incorporate no moving parts, which is associated with 98% of mechanical switch failures.
Basic features include a high water alarm and easy installation, but Spurney contends the Ion Genesis’® advanced features of protecting against floods are what distinguishes itself from similar products on the market.
“For starters, you have the redundancy of not just two pumps, but two of the most reliable float switches available,” said Spurney. “Even if one of the float switches were to fail, a high water alarm will notify the user and will also keep both pumps operating. This feature is not available anywhere else and will ultimately give users the time to replace a failed switch and still prevent flooding.”
Another unique feature of the Ion Genesis® is the ability for users to manually adjust the pumping level. The level can be adjusted from 2” to 24” in 0.5” increments using the controller without entering the pit. Spurney said this not only gives the product versatility, but can also extend the life of pumps as well.
“The ability to adjust the level differential is only available on the Ion Genesis®” said Spurney. “Users can also set the level to produce the longest cycle time which is ultimately going to extend the overall life of the pump.”
Installation of the Ion Genesis® involves no hard-wiring or complex programming and can be used in small or large volume sump pits.
The combination of versatility, value and multiple fail safes make the Ion Genesis® the premier product in flood control.
“A pump alternator that is capable of testing the primary switch, the backup switch and has a high water alarm that can still run the pumps if switch failure occurs is a one of a kind piece of equipment,” said Spurney. “In addition, the flexible nature of Ion™ Digital Level Control switches and the ability to adjust the pumping level ensures this product can be used in nearly any residential application. Simply put, this is the best pump alternator available.”
