Description Générale
The Computer Controlled Coupled Tanks System, "CTAC", consists of four transparent tanks, each with a pressure sensor to measure the water level.
The coupling configuration between tanks can be modified by the use of computer controlled solenoid valves.
Two independently computer controlled pumps drive the water from the bottom to the tanks and, depending on how the valves are configured, from one tank to another.
Besides, the outlet of each tank includes a manual valve to introduce non measurable perturbations in the system.
This Computer Controlled Unit is supplied with the EDIBON Computer Control System (SCADA), and includes: The unit itself + a Control Interface Box + a Data Acquisition Board + Computer Control, Data Acquisition and Data Management Software Packages, for controlling the process and all parameters involved in the process.
