Add a refresh control directly to a UITableView without using a UITableViewController:

    if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
        tableView.refreshControl = refreshControl
    } else {
        tableView.backgroundView = refreshControl

@objc func refresh(_ refreshControl: UIRefreshControl) {
    // Do your job, when done:
    refreshControl.endRefreshing()
}
