    The main comp onent s used in Water Contr o l System are as fo l low s:

    1. Limi t sw i tches2. Solen oid Valve3. Level Sensor4. Pu m p m o t o r5. Indicat ing Lamp s

    Limit switches: A mechanical l imi t switch is aelectromechanical device which can be used to

    determ ine the physica l posi t ion o f equ ipment . The l im i t

    switch gives ON/ OFF out put that corr espond s to p osi t ion

    of equipment. I t operates through pressure act ing upon

    the swi tch and the s ta te o f the swi tch is de termined

    accordingly.

    As seen from the given f igure an extension on a valve

    shaf t m echan ica l ly t r ips a l im i t sw i tch as i t m oves f rom open to shut o r shut t o open.

    In W ater Cont ro l System in w ater am usement park, l im i t swit ch is used to sense the posi t ion of cart (cart

    det ect l im it sw itch ) . The l im it swit ch also senses w heth er the r ide is fu l l w i th t he tou r group. As the cart

    is over lim i t swit ch and the r ide is fu l l , limi t switch changes state to ON state and th e consequent act ion

    fo l lows.

    Soleno id valve: A solenoid valve is an electrom echanical valve for use w ith l iquid or gas. The valve is

    contro l led by an electr ic current t hrou gh a solenoid. In the case of a tw o-port valve the f low is switched

    on or o f f and in the case o f a th ree-por t va lve, the ou t f low is sw i tched be tween the t w o ou t le t por ts .

    Solenoid valves are the most frequently used contro l e lements in f lu id ics. Their tasks are to shut off ,

    re lease, dose, d istr ibute or mix f lu ids. A solenoid valve has

    tw o main parts: the solenoid and the valve. The solenoid

    converts e lectr ical energy into mechanical energy which, in

    tur n, open s or closes the valve m echanical ly.

    In W ater Contro l System , the solenoid valve is used to cont ro l

    the ou t f low and in f low o f w ater in the tank. A so leno id valve

    each a t t he in le t ( f illing valve ) and exi t (out le t va lve ) o f tank is

    present and the level sensors senses w ater level and actuat es

    the va lve w h ich in tu rn contro ls the f low o f w ater f rom p ipes

    both a t in le t and ou t le t .

    Level Sensor: Level sensor is just an

    electronic sensor t hat is used t o sense level of

    a f lu id. Level sensors detect the level of

    substances that f low, including l iquids,

    slurr ies, granular mater ia ls, and powders.

    Flu ids and f lu id ized sol ids f low to become

    essentia l ly level in their containers (or other

    physical boundar ies) because of gravi ty

    whereas most bulk sol ids p i le at an angle of

    repose to a peak. The substance to be

    m easured can be inside a container or can be

    in i ts natur al form (e.g. a r iver or a lake).

    In t h is part icular appl icat ion , the level sensor

    is used to sense the l iquid level in the water

    tank. A level sensor is present each at t he t op

    and the bo t tom o f the tank . When the level

    full sensor detects the f lu id, i t actuates in let valve to close and when the level empty sensor detects a

    par t icu la r min imu m leve l o f f lu id in the tank, i t actua tes the ou t le t va lve to c lose the ou t f low o f w ater .

    P um p m o t o r: The pum p m otor is a dev ice tha t is used to pum p w ater . In our app l icat ion t he pum p

    motor is used to opera te a water je t . The pump motor is fo r

    generat ion of water jet. Here we use a single phase induction

    m otor fo r t he genera t ion o f w ater je t .

    The speci f icat ion of t he m oto r used is as fo l low s:

    1. Rating : 2 3 0 V; 5 0 H z ; 5 0 W a t t s2 . RPM : 9 5 0 0 rpm3. Amps : 9 A 4. Power : 1 H P5. Insulat ion : Class F6. Duty : S1 7. Protect ion : IP54

    Indicating Lamps: The indicat ing lam ps are norm al LEDs w hich are present on t he contr o l panel .

    These indicat ing lam ps indicate the undergoing process. Each process is l inked w ith an indicat ing lam p.

    Glow ing of an indicat ing lam p denot es the correspondi ng undergoing pro cess. Total seven indicat ing

    lamp s are used on the panel of W ater Cont ro l System fo r m onit or ing di f ferent processes.

    CONTROL PHILOSOPHY

    A PLC is to contro l an am usem ent park w ater r ide. The r ide is associated w i th a t ank of w ater

    and splash a t our group. The r ide fu l l w i th t our grou p is sensed by cart det ect l imi t sw i tch. The

    w ater t ank is associated w i th tw o solenoid operat ed va lve and correspond ing level sensor . The f i l l ing valve , accomp anied by level full sensor , is a t the t op end of the w ater tank w hereas the

    out let valve , accom panied by level em pt y sensor , is a t the bo t t om o f the w ate r tank .

    The pro cess start s in idle. The car t det ect l im i t swi t ch opens the f i l l ing va lve. After a delay of 30 seconds f rom the o pening of t he f i l l ing valve, the o ut le t va lve opens. W hen t he tan k is ful l ( level ful l sensor: healthy) t he f i l l ing valve closes. W hen t he tank is empt y ( level empt y sensor : heal thy) the ou t le t va lve c loses. After a delay of 10 seconds f rom the o pening of th e out le t va lve, a wat er je t opens. After a delay of 2 seconds, the water jet closes and the process returns to the idle

    s tate.

    ConCl usion

    A Program m able Logic Cont rol ler (PLC) is a hardw are invent ed t o replace the conve nt ional relay

    log ic c ircu i ts for m achine and process cont ro l . Th is hardware can accept the real w or ld in put s

    and can send the outputs command through i ts input /output modules. The PLC operates bysensing i ts inputs and depending upon the ir condi t ions, the outputs are act ivated. The user

    w r i tes a program as per t he appl icat ion, usually v ia sof t w are, which w hen loaded and ru n in t he

    PLC, pro duces th e d esired result s.

    The appl icat ion of Programmable Logic Contro l ler is done in our pro ject on Water Contro l

    System in a w ater am usem ent park. The u se of PLC m ade our system m ore accurate, re l iab le

    and auto m ated. M oreover the w ir ing and fau lt det ect ion of the cont ro l system becam e easy

    too . The use of PLC made ou r job s im pler , accurate and less hum an depende nt .

    The applicat ion of SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisit ion) has also beenincorporated in o ur pr o ject . SCADA is a sof t w are approach to a cont ro l system that a l low s us to

    m oni to r our system rem ote ly. Not o n ly th is , but i t a lso helps us detect i f t here is any funct ional

    p rob lem in our system a t norm a l work ing cond i t ion .

    Thus we f in d t hat W ater Cont rol System based on th e applicat ion o f PLC and SCADA is a m uch

    m ore accurate, re liab le and autom ated t han the convent ional cont ro l system s. Not on ly i t has

    made the system s imple in construct ion and t roubleshoot ing, but i t a lso a l lows us to set the

    input var iables as desired through a PC control l ing the system. By using communication cards

    we may transmit and receive signals through plc over a long distance. This al lows supervisionand cont ro l o f any contro l system rem ote ly.

    W ith t he advancem ent in t he f ie lds of t echnology, the PLC technology is est im ated to be m ore

    develope d and less costly. The use of PLC in ind ustr ies has becom e inevit able and expect ed t o

    be more widespread in the near fu ture. And wi th use of PLC, t ime is not far away when

    autom at ion w i l l be a re l ig ion in t he w or ld o f t echno logy .
