Titel: Pump control
Beitrag von: gelcoat am März 03, 2006, 23:52:29 Nachmittag
Hi I am really new to this stuff so need some friendly help:

I have 3 pumps in a tank, I have 2 float switches one low level one high level
low level switches pump off, high level switches pump on. I also require the pumps to cycle.
eg; tank fills to high level pump 1 on, tank empties pump off, next high level pump 2, next high level pump 3, next high level pump 1 and so on.

I have tried several ways but obviously I am not up to speed on my programming yet. All suggestions extremely welcome

Hallo ich übersetze das auf Deutsch
Translation:
Gelcoat hat einen Tank mit 3 Pumpen. Im Tank sind 2 Schwimmerschalter, einer oben und einer unten. Der obere Schwimmer schaltet die Pumpen EIN und der untere Schwimmer schaltet sie AUS. Die Pumpen arbeiten alternierend. Beim ersten Einschalten die Pumpe 1, das nächste mal die Pumpe 2 usw. Gelocat ist Beginner und sucht Unterstützung.
Gruss KressSwiss

Kresswiss. thank you for your program, however when pump 3 switches on it stops as soon as I01 is opened, instead of I02. Thank you all for your help is was really looking to use "easy" devices rather than Titan.

Hi gelcoat
You are right. There was a small bug in the programm. Now it should be repared.

Input 1 = low level
Input 2 = high level

Output 1 = Pump 1
Output 2 = Pump 2
Output 3 = Pump 3

Wish you sucess with your pump solution.

Hi Kresswiss

I have tried all the programs you sent, many thanks, however I found the download for the Titan submersible pump control and thought that would be the better option as it had every thing I required
however I am having problems adding a third pump and still keeping all the alarms and other outputs and a three pump display. If anyone can help I am sure you will have an answer

Hi gelocat
There you are. Three Pumps are working by turns. There are also error functions for the pumps included. 5 Inputs and three outputs are engaged:

Input 7: Level Low
Input 8: Level High
Input 1: Error Pump 1
Input 2: Error Pump 2
Input 3: Error Pump 3

Output 1: Pump 1
Output 2: Pump 2
Output 3: Pump 3
There also is an MFD Mask who shows which pumps are in Progress and which on error.

To have an overview in the Program I’ve no features like Alarm Outputs, Maintenance Switches or something like that included. There is a main Program and for the error functions 6 sub programs. The sub programs are activated by Jumps.
Hope the program is useful for you
