    Contactor
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on creating an automatic on/off control system for a three-phase pump using a float switch and a three-phase contactor with auxiliary contacts. The setup includes a 220-volt coil contactor, a single-phase float switch, and a manual on/off switch for the pump. Users are seeking detailed connection instructions to integrate these components effectively. The proposed system aims to manage pump operation based on water levels in a storage tank. Clarity on wiring and configuration is essential for successful implementation.

Hi,

i want to make automatic on/off the 3 phase pump with float switch and 3 phase contactor(with auxillary contacts) for my tank.

i have,
1. contactor with auxillary contacts(3 phase contactor , a1,a2 coil voltage 220volts, no and nc)
2. Float switch(single phase)
3. with this i want to put Manual On/Off switch for pump(no , nc)

i want the connection details, can anyone help?

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
