    Water distribution controls for a small plant

    After some further investigating online I did find a flow switch with a controller. Do you think this could be viable option either with or without the pressure switch? Or would I experience some other irregular running issues. I am worried that maybe the flow wouldn't be enough to engage the...

    Water distribution controls for a small plant

    Keith I was thinking that as the pressure drops too low.(determined by the flow of the pump) Than the drive could kick in the motor and run until an “over-pressurized” state and then shutoff. My thinking is if the machines or operators are using it that the pump would stay running. My problem I...

    Keith I’m not too keen on PLC and have never programmed one myself. I was thinking that all this could have been done using pressure switch/transducer with p&id loop on a drive. I definitely didn’t think I would have to purchase and additional tank. I’m just not sure this process will work for...

I first tried the whole floweter setup but found the meter to not be responsive enough and sometimes just doesn't work. My setup now...
