Q

What will happen when the water level in the concrete tank falls below (E2) a certain level? (With Diagram)

A

a. Water level in concrete tank falls below E2 level, it will initiate the duty pump at break tank to pump, provided the break tanks level is at E1
b. The duty pump in the break tank will stop when the break tank level falls below E2
c. As the water level in the break tank falls, the float valve opens and PUB water will refill the tank once the break tank reaches E1; the next pump on duty will start pumping if the concrete tank level has not reached E1 level
d. The entire cycle will repeat itself until the concrete tank level reaches E1

e. When concrete tank reaches E1, it will initiate the break pump to stop
pumping
