· Flow Sensor – Measures the flow rate of water in the system.

· Level Sensor – Detects water levels in the tank.


· Power Supply – Provides the necessary voltage to the system.
· Circuit Breaker – Protects the circuit from overcurrent or short
circuits.
· Fuse – Adds extra protection to electrical circuits.
· Water Tank (2x) – Holds water for level measurement experiments.
· Valve (Manual or Motorized) – Controls the flow of water.
· Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) – Controls the operation of
sensors and actuators.
· Transparent Pipe – Allows visual observation of water flow.
· Water Pump – Circulates water through the system.
· Emergency Stop Button – Instantly shuts down the system for safety
in case of malfunction.

emergency shutdown in your Flow-and-Level Sensor Trainer by:

1. Activating an Alarm – If water levels or flow rates go beyond safe limits, the relay can trigger
buzzers or indicator lamps.
2. Cutting Off the Pump – In emergency conditions (e.g., dry running, overcurrent), the relay
can immediately disconnect power to the pump.
3. Integrating with Emergency Stop (E-Stop) Button – Pressing the E-Stop can trigger the relay
to shut down the system for safety.

· Relay Module – Acts as an intermediary between the PLC and high-


power devices.

relay module in your Flow-and-Level Sensor Trainer is used for:

1. Controlling the Water Pump – The relay acts as a switch that the PLC can turn ON or OFF to
activate the pump based on sensor readings.
2. Electrical Isolation – Protects the low-voltage PLC from high-power devices like pumps.
3. Safety and Automation – Ensures the system operates only when needed, preventing dry
running or overflow.

· Wiring and Connectors – Provides electrical connections between


components.
· Pump Controller (Motor Driver) – Regulates the operation of the
water pump.
· Flow Control Valve – Adjusts the water flow rate.
· Indicating Lamps – Shows the operational status of the system.
· Protective Casing or Enclosure – Ensures safety and protects
components.
· Level Indicator (Float or Digital) – Provides a visual or digital
indication of water levels.
· Selector Switch – Allows switching between different operation modes
(e.g., manual/automatic).
· Manual Mode – The user directly controls the pump operation.
· Automatic Mode – The system operates based on PLC logic and sensor inputs.

· Buzzer/Alarm Indicator – Alerts users when water levels exceed safe


limits.

Modular Automation System,


· Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Module – This is the top section with multiple slots for I/O
modules, used for automation control.
· Pneumatic or Electropneumatic Modules – These are likely valve terminals or I/O modules for
controlling actuators, solenoids, or sensors.
· Power Supply & Interface Ports – The lower section houses electrical connections, power inputs,
and communication interfaces.
