Control Work

The research on gate control work presents the concept of regulating the flow of water by controlling the dam gates or shutters using servo-motors in order to manage the dam water level. Water level control and insufficient water supply are the major challenges at the hydropower company (HDPC). The system at this dam site consists of the outlet works tower with four outlet penstocks that collects water to the main discharge outlet. The automation implements the electronic control system that uses the programmable logic controller (PLC) and the optical level sensors to detect water level. For the new design, the power screw hoist mechanism is used to open and close the gate of weight 600N with the efficiency of 35.4% of the square thread screw. The gate takes 160 seconds to travel a vertical distance of 600mm in its guide, to fully open and close the 400mm penstock diameter. Mat-lab Simulink was used to control the electronic system for stability to avoid vibrations and fluctuation of speed.

Abstract— Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is an essential component in industrial automation where it acts as the backbone of the system. In line with Industrial Revolution (IR) 4.0, most industrial and manufacturing sectors move towards automation systems. Preparing university students about automation and PLC fundamental knowledge and skill is crucial before graduation, where the preoccupied knowledge will enhance graduate employability. Fulfilling this task, universities have to prepare the necessary equipment in the laboratory for teaching and learning purposes. The problem arises when certain universities with budget constraints cannot purchase the equipment for the PLC embedded system as huge costs have to be borne by universities. Thus, an alternative approach has to be taken where the main objective of this paper is to develop an interactive water level control system simulator as a substitution of the expensive automation PLC embedded system for teaching and learning purposes. OMRON software, namely CX-Programmer and CX-Designer used to design and develop an interactive water level control system simulator. In addition, the interactive water level control will be embedded with a PLC component that replicates the actual automation system laboratory equipment. Moreover, universities with a limited budget can utilize the tool for teaching and learning purposes of the PLC and automation system, which is the main contribution of this paper. Keywords—Water Level Control System, Programmable Logic Controller, Simulator, CX-Programmer, CX-Designer.

Rizal Fauzan Adi Rahardjo, Heru Winarno, in paper water level detection based atmega 8 microcontroller with lcd display, led, buzzer and seven segment as early warning of post water (rob) increase based CP1E-E40DR-A programmable logic controller explain that as a result of the overflow of the tidal sea water in rural areas sriwulan sayung District of Demak , the tidal water easily entered into the residential area , which can be fatal if not in further tackle. Tidal flood has become commonplace in the area Sriwulan Sayung District of Demak . However , the longer the tidal flood is troubling and very disturbing society . So I took the initiative to create a miniature tidal flood prevention . Height of the water level of a river that flows directly into the sea will be detected by the sensor. The sensors will send data to the PLC and will be displayed by the seven segment . Further increase in the water level of the river will also affect the water level in the ditch homes residents . Height of the ditch water level is detected by the sensor which will send data to the PLC and then displayed by seven segment LCD and previously through the microcontroller atmega 8. The maximum height of the water level gutter will be marked with berbunyinya buzzer and LED life. Keywords : Sensor , Seven Segment , Microcontroller Atmega 8 , LCD , LED, buzzer.

Technology as a result of human inventions to facilitate the work of increasingly advanced human technology and the development of various kinds of innovations especially developments in the field of microcontroller technological inventions penetrated various aspects ranging from transportation medicine and agriculture The large number of residents who use hydropower dams as water storage Open and close water dam gates automatically are buildings and structures that can function to open and close the flow of water to the river upstream according to the water level at the headwaters or dams. This tool uses the principle water level control work for water level detection using ultrasonic sensors with the design of this tool can then make it easier in terms of monitoing in opening and opening the water dam door automatically so as to facilitate in regulating the flow of water discharge without having to use a guard by adding an LCD to make it easier to show water level information and alarms on dams that can change in an uncertain period of time and then discharge reportsthe height of the water can be seen through the web so that it can facilitate and reduce a human error factor human error

This study is based on the design of a portable automatic water level control switch that is capable of switching on the pump when the water level in the overhead tank goes low and switches it off as soon as the water level reaches a pre-determined level to prevent dry-run of the pump in case the level in the underground tank goes below the suction level. The water in the tank is measured by the conductive probes and displaced via the LED indicators. At maximum-set capacity the pump is de-energized to automatically switch off, thereby stopping the inflow of water into the tank. The design approach involves three major stages which are: the power supply unit, the sensing unit, and the motoring and relay unit. The uniqueness of this work is the use of discrete components such as transistors to achieve water level control. This approach is more economical, simpler and easier to implement than the sophisticated programmable logic controllers and computerized microprocessors. Keywords: discrete components; conductive probes; sensors; relays; pump
