36032-EN-130701

Pump control 1: The upper switching point determines the switch-

off point for the relay, whereas the lower switching point deter-

mines the switch-on point

Pump control 2: The upper switching point determines the switch-

on point for the relay, whereas the lower switching point deter-

mines the switch-off point

Two pumps should empty the vessel when a certain level is reached.

At 80 % filling, the pump with the shortest running time should switch

on. If the level nevertheless increases, a second pump should switch

on at 90 %. Both pumps should switch off again at 10 % filling.

Select in the DTM navigation section the menu items "Meas. loop -

Outputs - Relay".

Set mode "Pump control 2" for relay 1 and 2.

Enter the switching points for the affected relays as follows:

– Relay 1 upper switching point = 80.0 %

– Relay 1 lower switching point = 10.0 %

– Relay 2 upper switching point = 90.0 %

– Relay 2 lower switching point = 10.0 %

The function of pump control 2 is shown in detail in the following dia-

gram. The previously described example is used as a basis.
