Understanding the Float System
Subdoor Control Center
Float indication lights show the status of the floats in the basin. If a float
is tipped closed, the corresponding LED will be lit. If the floats tip out of
sequence it will cause the float indication lights to show an error. If a higher
float comes on before the next lowest float, the LED of the lower float will
flash indicating a problem. For example, if the “Lead Pump On” float hangs up
and the water level comes down to the “Pumps Off” float level, the “Pumps
Off” float will tip down. The “Pumps Off” LED will then flash while the “Lead
Pump On” LED remains on. However, the error indication will be automatically
cleared next time the floats sequence in the proper order. Another example
would occur when the “Pumps Off” float fails to close when it tips up. When
the “Lead Pump On” float tips up, the “Pumps Off” LED will then flash while
the “Lead Pump On” LED remains on. Even though the error indication is the
same there could be two causes for the error. The first cause being a hung up
float, and the second cause being a float failure. These lights help to assist in
troubleshooting float errors and station problems.
