====== Programs - Pump Program ====== There are two types of Pump Programs that can be written: * 1) a program that moves water from one place to the next * i.e. from a river / borehole to a dam * 2) a program that only lists a pump with no runtimes etc. to be used in conjunction with a Valve Program For the purpose of this document, the items marked with * will be applicable for option 2: =====Program Details===== {{ :programs:pump_program_details.png?nolink&400|}} * **A:** *Enter a Name for the Pump Program * **B:** *Select the relevant Station from the dropdown list * **C:** *Select the relevant Pump from the dropdown list * **D:** Enter the Runtime (minutes) / duration that the pump program must run * **E:** N/A * **F:** * **G:** Enter the duration of time to pass before the pump starts after being told to start * **H:** Enter the time in seconds that the pump must stop before the Runtime is finished * **I:** *Enter the min Start Pressure (Bar) * **J:** *Enter the pressure (Bar) to stop the Bleed =====Sensor Details*===== {{ :programs:pump_program_sensor_details.png?nolink&400|}} * **A:** Select the relevant Control Valve from the dropdown list (only if there is one, leave as "Not Set" if there is no Control Valve) * **B:** Enter a Delay (seconds) before the Control Valve opens after the start of the pump * If the valves are closed when the pump is started, it means that there is no discharge head & minimum resistance to the pump, and therefore the output current is the smallest. * Although the current is greater than the normal value when the motor starts, closing the discharge valve of a pump can avoid additional load on the pump. * **C:** Select the relevant Current Sensor from the dropdown list * **D:** Select the relevant Pressure Sensor from the dropdown list * **E:** Select the relevant Flow Rate Sensor from the dropdown list * **F:** Select the relevant Trip Sensor from the dropdown list * **G:** Select the relevant Temperature Sensor from the dropdown list =====Scheduling===== {{ :programs:pump_program_schedulingrev.png?nolink&400|}} * **A:** Select a Date & Time * **B:** Enter in hours the duration of time to pass before the program is repeated * **C:** Enter Date & Time for schedule to wait before starting * **D:** Select the relevant Ruraflex Stages * **E:** Select the relevant Ruraflex Stages * **F:** To set a regular schedule, tick this box, this will open more settings for scheduling As described below {{:programs:pump_program_scheduling2.png?nolink&400|}} * **A:** Provision has been made to enter up to 4 different Times per day * **B:** Tick the Days of the Week that the program must run on =====Alarms*===== {{ :programs:pump_program_alarmsrev.png?nolink&400|}} * **A:** Enter the duration of time allowed to pass for the program to be out of specification before the alarm is triggered * **B:** Enter the Min Amps of the pump motor * **C:** Enter the Max Amps of the pump motor * **D:** Enter the Min Pressure (Bar) of the pump * **E:** Enter the Max Pressure (Bar) of the pump * **F:** Enter the Min Flow Rate (m3/h) * **G:** Enter the Max Flow Rate (m3/h) * **H:** Enter the Number of Automatic Restarts Allowed if pump fails to start on the first try before the alarm is triggered * **I:** Enter the duration of time that must pass if the pump pails to start before it tries to start again * **J:** Enter the Max Temperature that the motor may run at =====Trigger===== The values entered here are based on the type of sensor selected as a trigger. E.g. if the selected trigger is a pressure sensor, the min / max values would be related to pressures (either in Bar or meters); if the selected trigger is a Current Sensor, the min / max values would be in Amps. {{ :programs:trigger.png?nolink&400|}} * **A:** Select a trigger sensor * **B:** Enter a min Threshold * **C:** Enter a max Threshold * **D:** Enter a max interval * **E:** Enter a min Active time for the trigger * **F:** Select a trigger type from the dropdown list =====Input / Output===== {{ :programs:pump_program_i-o.png?nolink&400|}} * **A:** Select the relevant port connected to the Bleeding System (Usually a small pump or electric valve or both) * **B:** Select the relevant port connected to the Main Pump (Used when pump use to be started by hand / green button) * **C:** Select the relevant port connected to the Main Pump (Should be the "PC" connection on the starterbox) * **D:** Select the relevant port connected to the Main Pump (Used when pump use to be started by hand / red button) * **E:** Select the relevant port for the Actuator valve if applicable * **F:** Select the relevant port for the Actuator valve if applicable =====Events===== {{ :programs:pump_program_events.png?nolink&400|}} * **A:** Select from the dropdown list a program that must be started along with this Valve Program * **B:** Select from the dropdown list a program that must be started once this Valve Program has stopped =====Rate Control===== {{ :programs:pump_program_rate_controlrev.png?nolink&400|}} * **A:** Enter the Target Pressure (Bar) / Desired Pressure * **B:** Enter the Target Amps / Desired Amps * **C:** * **D:** * **E:** * **F:** “Rate Control Method”: * "Analog VSD Output" * "Actuator Control" * "Digital Out Setpoint" * **G:** * **H:** * **I:** * **J:** =====Pump Cluster===== {{ :programs:pump_program_pump_cluster.png?nolink&400|}} * **A:** * **B:** * **C:** * **D:** * **E:** * **F:** * **G:** * **H:** * **I:** * **J:** * **K:** * **L:** * **M:** * **N:** * **O:** * **P:**
