A client of mine asked me for some suggestions about automating his remote pumping stations.
He's got 4 pumping stations. All have stand alone hardwire pump starters. Basicaly they are a 1 motor starter panel with 2 push buttons (Start/Stop) each.
Hes would like to automate this.
The central bigger system is where we will install the main PLC.
The next pump is 6 miles away.
The next pump is 300 yards farther.
The next pump is 300 yards farther.
We have dedicated phone line between them all.
What would you suggest could be a good simple way to unite them in a control system.
I have some ideas but am fishing for more and maybee some I have not tought of.
