Efficient water management is crucial in both residential and industrial settings. The D2 WLC1 Liquid Level Controller offers an advanced solution for automating water pump operations, ensuring optimal water levels in overhead and underground tanks.
Liquid Level Controllers
A liquid level controller is an electronic device designed to monitor and regulate the level of liquids within a tank. By automating the control of pumps based on water levels, these controllers prevent issues such as tank overflows or dry runs, thereby conserving water and protecting equipment.
The D2 WLC1 is an automatic dual-level controller that operates on the electrical conductivity principle. It’s specifically designed to manage water levels in both overhead (delivery) and underground (suction) tanks, automating pump operations to maintain desired water levels efficiently.
Key Features of the D2 WLC1
- Dual Tank Management: Simultaneously monitors and controls water levels in both overhead and underground tanks.
- Conductivity-Based Sensing: Utilizes six stainless steel sensor probes (P1 to P6) to detect water levels accurately.
- Automated Pump Control: Activates the pump when the underground tank is full and the overhead tank is not and deactivates it when the overhead tank reaches full capacity or the underground tank is empty.
- Auxiliary Relay Functionality: Features a 1 Changeover relay contact rated at 5A, 240V AC (resistive), suitable for integration into control circuits.
- Safety Measures: Prevents pump operation under unfavorable conditions, safeguarding against potential damage.
Benefits of Using the D2 WLC1 Liquid Level Controller
- Water Conservation: Automated control prevents water wastage due to overflows or dry runs.
- Energy Efficiency: Reduces unnecessary pump operation, leading to energy savings.
- Equipment Protection: Prevents pump damage by ensuring it operates only under appropriate conditions.
- Low Maintenance: The use of stainless steel sensor probes ensures durability and longevity.
Installation and Compatibility
For optimal performance, the D2 WLC1 should be used with MINILEC sensor probes. These probes are designed for easy installation, featuring individual bolting arrangements for secure cable connections. They are to be suspended from the top openings of the water tanks. For specific applications requiring different conductive materials, consultation with MINILEC is recommended to ensure compatibility.
The D2 WLC1 Liquid Level Controller is a reliable and efficient solution for automated water level management in dual-tank systems. Its advanced features and safety mechanisms make it an ideal choice for both residential and industrial applications, ensuring optimal water usage and equipment longevity.
