Release 3.0, (042904)
Page 5
Control software shall be parameter driven, fully documented, and allow user to easily change all operator parameters.

Standard control features, and equipment that need to be included as a minimum are as follows:

A. Alarms and shutdowns:

Low discharge pressure
High flow demand
High discharge pressure
Low wet well level
Phase Loss (attempts restart)*
Low voltage (attempts restart)*
Phase reversal (attempts restart)*
Individual motor overload/phase loss (indicates which individual motor was shut down)
VFD fault (shutdown VFD pump only and attempts restart)*

*Three unsuccessful restarts in a 15 minute period will give hard shutdown as configured from the factory. Number of
restarts during a period and the length of period can be re-configured in the field.

All alarms will be indicated by a red general alarm light. Specific alarm conditions along with will be displayed in
English on the operator interface display (OID).

B. Panel face switches and lights:

Individual pump run lights
Individual pump on/off switches
System Hand/Off/Automatic switch
Mode Select switch allows manual bypass mode of operation which can be used if VFD should fail (inside panel on
back pan)
On/Off controls in OID to automatically alternate VFD (hours/sequential/off)
Reset Acknowledges pumping station alarms/ Silence Horn/ Lamp Test
Speed potentiometer in system manual mode allows user to adjust VFD pump speed
Low discharge pressure override disables low discharge pressure alarm (through OID)

C. System HOA works with PLC bypass switch and allows user to manually operate pump should PLC fail.

D. Four distinct set point pressure (normal, lockouts 1 & 2 and high elevation). The lockout feature gives the user the
flexibility to lower the set point pressure automatically at days and times, and locking out the operation of one or more
of main pumps if local power authority imposes penalties for operating these pumps during such times. It also allows
user to set maximum RPM for the VFD pump during these lockout times so that user can limit amperage draw during
penalty periods. The high elevation set point can be tied into a computerized Raw or irrigation water system, or directly
linked to high elevation satellites. When high elevation satellites are operating, control software will automatically and
gradually elevate the pressure to the new desired set point. When finished, the high set point will be lowered back to
normal. The high elevation set point will only be used if called out on the Technical Data Sheet.

E. LineFill Software will be included to automatically, and gradually increase the speed of the pump motor to maintain the
desired operating pressure for the Raw or irrigation water system (i.e., 1.5% every 4 seconds). This feature operates
whenever pressure drops below linefill set point pressure. The linefill set point is fully adjustable by the operator. This
control feature is based on an increase in pressure over a pre-defined time period. The acceleration control on the VFD
is NOT an acceptable means of adjusting pressure ramp up speed.

F. Software will be included for optionally maintaining a lower Raw or irrigation water system pressure when not
irrigating. Reduced pressure valves will be shown in the Technical Data Sheet. Controls will cycle the pressure
maintenance pump at these reduced pressures during non-operation times, and pressure will gradually increase to design
pressure when the operation periods begin.

Release 3.0, (042904)
Page 6
G. Neither flow meter nor VFD output frequency shall be used for shutting down last VFD driven pump. Controls and
software shall incorporate a method to eliminate excessive cycling of VFD pump at very low flow conditions, yet not run
the pump excessively at no-flow conditions.

H. Automatic alternation of VFD driven pumps. This shall be accomplished by incorporating dual mechanically and
electrically interlocked contactors allowing alternation of the VFD pumps.

I. User shall be able to field select either of two modes of VFD operation. Auto switch VFD option allows VFD to
sequentially start each pump. The manual mode of operation starts the first main pump on the VFD and the remaining
pumps start across the line as required.

J. An integral real time clock calendar shall allow the PLC to internally provide all date, and time functions.

K. Two separately adjustable proportional integral & derivity PID control loops shall provide for both low flow and high
flow pressure stability.

L. A shutoff algorithm, for fixed speed pumps, shall minimize pump cycling while also remaining responsive to sudden
flow reductions. Minimum run timers alone for minimizing fixed speed pump cycling are not acceptable. Discharging
pressure through the relief valve during pump transitions is not an acceptable method of maintaining constant pressure.

M. Manual operation of the VFD driven pump shall be done with a door mounted speed potentiometer to manually adjust
the speed of the pump motor.

N. A system manual, or automatic mode switch shall be provided. This mode switch, when in the manual mode, will allow
all pump motors and the VFD to be operational should the PLC fail. When the system mode switch is in automatic, the
controller will start, and stop all pumps automatically.

O. All panel lights shall be tested by pressing the reset button for three (3) seconds.

P. A rate of pressure change algorithm shall rapidly determine if there is a Raw or irrigation water demand and immediately
cycle on the VFD pump, instead of waiting for the pressure to drop to a predetermined start pressure.

Q. All pumping system shutdowns shall be controlled to sequentially turn pumps off at user selectable intervals to reduce
water hammer within the Raw or irrigation water system.

3.55 Operator Interface Device (OID). The pumping system shall include a NEMA 4, 4 lines by 20 character backlit liquid
crystal display (LCD) keypad mounted on the control panel door. This device will allow the operator to view, and selectively
modify system setpoints in the PLC. It shall store its messages in a non-volatile memory. The OID shall incorporate password
protection for protecting data integrity. The OID will allow for display, and modification of timers, set points, and lockout times.
The device shall communicate with the PLC through the programming port, and shall include a serial printer port allowing a
printer to be attached for real time station status logging.

In addition to normal data entry keys, the OID shall include a minimum of the following screens:

A. Event Log. Displays the last 254 sequential pumping system events with the date, and time of occurrence. Events
shall include but not be limited to: all alarms, starting of individual pumps, stopping of individual pumps, and changing
of selector switches.

B. Alarm Log. Shows the last nine (9) alarms recorded in memory, and are displayed with related detailed information
about the alarm, time of occurrence, date, pumps operating at time of alarm, and how to correct the alarm.

C. Pump Log #1. Operator can scroll through the historical pumping system flows, and pressures for up to the last seven
(7) days. Sampling time periods can be changed by the operator (from 10 seconds to 60 minutes). Averages are taken
over the sample period, and the average recorded with date, and time stamp.

Release 3.0, (042904)
Page 7
D. Pump Log #2. Pumping system flow and pressure are shown every second for the previous 60 seconds, and every
minute for the previous 30 minutes. If a shutdown occurs, the flow, and pressure tables are locked in so that the operator
may view how the pumping system was performing immediately before the shutdown occurred.

E. Status Screen. Will display the current operating status. When the pumping system is running, the display will show
the setpoint pressure, actual system pressure, flow, VFD pump frequency, and current date and time.

F. Daily Log Will display the following: individual pump run times, total flow, and total flow since last reset.

G. Configuration Menu Used to scroll up, and down through the data and menu options.

The OID shall be an information system only, and not required for pumping system operation. No switches, reset buttons, general
alarm lights, run lights, or speed potentiometers are to be included within this unit. The pumping system will be fully functional
in the event the OID should fail.

3.60 Codes. The control panel with controls shall be built in accordance to N.E.C. and UL standards. All equipment and
wiring shall be mounted within the enclosure, and labeled for proper identification. All user-required adjustments shall be made
from the front of the control enclosure. A wiring schematic complete with legend, terminals, components, and wiring
identification shall be provided. The main disconnect shall be interlocked with door.

3.65 Operation. During non operation times, the pressure maintenance pump (PMP) will cycle on and off as required to
maintain pressure. The cycling pressures can be user selected, and can be set substantially below normal system pressure, if
desired. If the PMP cannot maintain the desired pressure, than the VFD will start the first main pump, and will gradually ramp
the pressure up to the system pressure. The pump speed will be modulated to hold a constant discharge pressure regardless of
flow. As the flow rate increases, and the VFD pump can no longer maintain pressure while at maximum speed, the next main
pump will be started, and the VFD driven pump will accordingly reduce its speed, and modulate. An algorithm shall be included
for accurately reducing the VFD pump speed as the next sequential pump is started so that no pressure surges are generated
during the transition (even with across the line starting). If the user prefers to switch the VFD from pump to pump for starting the
pumps sequentially, he can select this option with the OID. As the flow continues to increase, pumps will sequentially be started
until all pumps are operating. As the flow begins to decrease, pumps will be turned off sequentially until only a single VFD
driven pump is operating. When a no flow condition occurs, the VFD pump shall be turned off. When there is a pressure set
point change all other related set point variables change relative to the new pressure set point.
