Walnut Innovations Fully Automatic Water level Controller

This Model is Suitable for all Single Phase AC230V Water pumps up operated by a normal ON/OFF switch/MCB,

Walnut Innovations Water level Controller is an electronic product which controls the water pump automatically.

Automatic water level controller switches ON the motor when the water level in the overhead tank drops below.
Automatic water level controller switch ON the motor when the water level in the overhead tank drops below pre fixed low level (on point, usually 1/2 tank) and SWITCH OFF the motor when water level rises up to pre fixed high level (off point) motor also switches off when the sump water is at belowFOOTVALVE level.
Automatic water level controller allows you to decide the water storage levels for operations of the pump in the overhead tank and the sump.
Automatic Water level controllers are highly recommended for metro cities or areas where drinking water is supplied through pipelines which are further distributed in homes, hotels, societies etc.

Some Significant advantages of a automatic water level controller include:

When the water level drops or rises, device control pump automatically.
Because there is no excess water in the tanks, it helps to prevent seepage of the roof and walls.
Automatic operation saves manual labor time
Consumes a small amount little energy, perfect for on-going operations
Long-lasting; once placed, it can last up to 10 years.
No more brawls with neighbors over spilling water
Reduces Effort and Saves Time You no need to touch your Motor switches every day.
Our system will switch ON / OFF your Motor automatically.
Switches OFF the motor automatically if the Sump is empty.
During emergency use your motor manually at any time.
No chances of overflow, current wastage and motor burnout.
Direct Plug & Play, Fast & Easy Installation.
Applicable to all types of motors, capacity and liquid (salt / sewage water)
No need of manpower to maintain the motor, sump and tank.
Avoids seepage of water from roofs & walls due to overflowing tanks.
It has a compact design.
Silent Operation

Advantages of Water Level Controller

There are many benefits if switching to automatic water level controller from traditional way and few of them are as below.

No Human Error:

Functions Automatically: We are accustomed to manually checking the water levelsWater level controller automatically switch ON the pump moment the water level in OHT drops and switch OFF when the OHT is filled up.

Saving of Water:

Water level controller automatically switch OFF the pump, when the OHT is filled up and no more over flows.

Enhance the life of pumps:

Due to prolonged running and running in dry condition, pumps get damaged. Using WLC with dry run protector will improve the life of pumps.

Save Energy:

These devices are extremely beneficial because they help conserve both water and electricity. Water level controllers that automatically adjust the water level to save energy. Using WLC saves electricity bill.

Saves Money:

Water level controllers help conserve energy and eventually helps to save money. With the use of these technologies, water is managed, which means that wasted water and electricity are kept to a minimum. It will help you save a lot of money in the long run.

Peace of Mind:

WLC monitors and controls the water level as well as pumping actions, you are relieved from work of constant monitoring and peacefully you can concentrate any other productive jobs.

Avoid Seepage:

Due to regular over flow or constant flowing of water on the terrace floor leads to the seepage in the slab concrete. Adopting WLC will totally controls the water from overflow and seepage in the terrace slab is avoided.

No Dry Running:

The risk of the tanks being overfilled can be completely eliminated with the aid of these instruments. When the underground tank is empty, the motor switch automatically switches off, preventing dry running.

Low-Maintenance:

Water level controllers are low-maintenance devices that last a long time and require little maintenance. They have stainless conductive electrodes built in that are coated in plastic. They are known for lasting a long time and requiring little care and cleaning.

FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions:

Does it require any technical expertise to install it?

A: Not really, WLC can be installed by any normal adult with some basic electrical knowledge can install this equipment by looking at the manual. However any locally available electrician can do this very easily.

How to measure the depth of the water in bore well?

A: usually a stone is tied to a thread of length 5-10 feet longer than your bore well depth. This stone is tied with thread is lowered slowly in to the bore well hole. Once the stone hits the bottom, one can feel the sense that there is no more pull in the thread. Then the thread is pulled back and measured. This gives the depth of bore well and the length of thread which is wet portion gives the depth of water in your bore well. Please ensure that the thread you use should be strong and durable and also while tying the stone with the thread, please tie the knot properly.

What kind of cable to be used for connecting sensors with the device?

A: The cable used for connecting WLC device with the sensors should be 3 core 1 sqmm

Does any kind of maintenance is involved for WLC?

A: usually no maintenance is involved as far as device is concerned. As per our knowledge any WLC device lasts more than 10 years without any problem. Yes but there is one thing which you may have to check and that is sometimes the sensors get corroded. When Sensors get corroded it stops sending signals to the AWLC device and you can find that device starts to malfunction as it is not receiving the proper signals or no signal at all.

Can we install WLC in existing house, where nonexclusive conducting is done for WLC?

A: Yes you can install the WLC in existing house where no exclusive conducting is done for the installation of AWLC. While doing so, one can run the cable exposed on the wall or use casing to cover it up. There are instances where you may have to run the cable in flooring to reach the bore well or UG Sump. And you can do so by making a tine groove in the flooring using tiles cutting machine, lay the cable and cover it with a cement. However this may look odd in term of aesthetics but it serves one of the main purpose of saving water and peace of mind

How to override WLC in case of any malfunction?

A: Every AWLC will have a button, upon pressing which your AWLC will come to manual mode. This shift becomes very important when your WLC starts malfunctioning. One can continue to use the manual mode till the service person come and repair or replaces your AWLC. But please be informed that during manual override mode, one has to manually monitor the pumping activity as per the traditional method mentioned above.

Where should the WLC be placed in our house?

A: First of all identify a place where you can strategically fix the WLC. The place should satisfy following requirements, Should not be exposed to direct sunlight and rain should have an input power supply recommended to be placed right next to pump power switch or starter.

How to do the conduit for connecting WLC?

A: This is very helpful when one is building his new house. Planning exclusive conduit system will avoid many hazels of running the cable on the surface. Once the location for fixing WLC device is located then following conduit needs to done with the help of your electrician,

One conduit has to run from the WLC device up to the Sump tank/Bore-well and using 3 core water level controller cable connect the sensors in the sup tank/ Bore-well and in the same conduit run the power cable for submersible pump starting from WLC device
One conduit has to run from the WLC device up to the OHT and run only the sensor cable from WLC device to the OHT and connect the same to sensors in OHT.
