December 20, 2013

Article Updated November 2017:

Continuing this week's theme of profiling Rockwell's free application code, today we'll take a look at their Pump Station Controller Pre-packaged Solution.

Similar to the CCBB and CCAT we previously reviewed, Rockwell's Pump Station Controller is designed around “component” level devices, specifically the MicroLogix 1400 and PanelView Component.

Similar to CCBB and CCAT, Rockwell's Pump Station Controller contains the following:

“Quick start” manual
PLC code for the MicroLogix 1400
HMI code for the PanelView Component C600
CAD drawings in PDF and DWG formats
Rockwell Sample Code Terms and Conditions

The Pump Station Controller solution is available completely free from the below link:

Rockwell also released a well done video profiling many of the features of their Pump Station Controller, including:

The operation and configuration of the pump control from the PanelView Component
The application configuration including selecting the number of pumps (up to four)
Choosing Pump Up, Down, or Pressure Follower control
Choosing measuring devices, analog inputs, and backup devices
Setting up pump interlocks, backup pump selection, as well as pressure and level set points
Sequence and level status, PID tuning, and PowerFlex 4 class parameter backup and restore

I hope the above information about Rockwell's Pump Station Controller Pre-packaged Solution is helpful.
