Repotenciación y automatización del sistema eléctrico de la estación de bombeo de agua potable en San Vicente de Andoas, cantón Pedro Vicente Maldonado “Provincia de Pichincha”

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to redesign the installed electrical system and automate it to provide greater comfort to the personnel who operate and control the pumping system. The design began with the electrical audit at the pumping site to determine whether the installed transformer is suitable to supply power to 2 pumps operating simultaneously, the constant increase in population density, the expansion of villages to more remote areas, lead to cover the demand for water, for which a second pump will be increased. The next step was to review the different controls required to automate the system, after that, the programming was carried out for the different automatons, in addition, the use of fiber optics was included for communication between the main and secondary controller, which are separated 1.3 km away. In this way, enough power is delivered to supply power to the electrical water pumping system, dimensioned to operate at maximum capacity (2 simultaneous pumps), and automatic control is added through programmable logic controllers, also for greater comfort and ease of operation. operation use an HMI (4 inch touch screen) built into the main control point.
