Background of the study.
This project is carried out so as to provide
a means of reducing stress involved in fetching water, wastage of water
and flooding which may result from overfilling of the tank and
eventually reduce to minimum, if not eliminating damages to the pumping
machine.
Aim and Objectives
The aims and objectives of this project are:
To reduce the labour involved in operating pumping machine manually.
To prevent or protect the coil of pumping machine from being burnt as a result of continuous work beyond its operating time.
To pump water automatically from water sources.
To prevent wastage of natural resources (water in particularly) and flooding of premises.
To prevent the machine from sucking mud and or air when there is no water in the well or source of water supply.
Scope of the Study
The
project is design to provide a means of storing water for the benefit
of mankind and industrial purpose. The control section is used for the
control of water level to various sizes of tank or reservoir. The
minimum and maximum level of water in the tank is determined by the
probe.
Significance of Study
The significance of the study is to
design a means of mankind water available in the storage tank for future
uses such as domestic, industrial, Agricultural and economic purposes,
which are beneficial to mankind. It is also reduce labour coil, wastage
of water resulting from filling of the tank, which can eventually leads
to flooding. Consequently it enables long life span of the pumping
machine.
Methodology
In the course of searching for information
on this project, we consulted some learned professionals, lecturers,
relevant textbooks, such as electrical drafting and design for the HND
students, journals and past project reports in the library of the
institution e.g Federal Polytechnic, Ede, Osun State, and browsing on
the Internet to acquire relevant information on the design and
construction of the project.
Limitation of the Project
The major
limitation of the study is that it cannot be used when there is no power
supply from Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) unless an
alternative means of power supply is designed to power the project.
