See the whole libraryHow this circuit works
Three pressure switches (or one with three set points) start the pumps one after the other as the pressure falls: pump 1 at the highest pressure, pump 2 and pump 3 at lower set points. The timers hold back the assist pumps for a few seconds so that a short pressure dip does not start them and the pumps do not start together. Each pump stops when its switch opens at the cut-out pressure. Rotate the lead pump by hand or with a changeover if the wear must be shared.

The circuits are typical examples with fictional values. They do not replace the design, calculation and approval of a qualified engineer, they are provided as is, and the selection tables are for orientation only. Check every drawing against the standards, the device manuals and the rules of your installation.

Questions
- Can I change the drawings and use them in client projects?
- Yes. Edit them as you like and hand finished drawings to your clients. You may not resell or pass on the library itself. The licence terms have the details.
- Which CAD programs open the files?
- The DWG files open in AutoCAD and in other CAD programs that read DWG. The 2010 DWG and the DXF are for older or other software. Every device is a block with attributes you can edit.
- Are the selection tables a design?
- No. They give typical sizes for orientation and name their sources. Motor, starting conditions, cable run, short-circuit level and local rules change the result, so check every value against the nameplate and the device documents.
- Can I look at a circuit before I buy?
- Yes. Four circuits open in the online viewer, read-only, so you can zoom into the real drawing. For every other circuit the page shows the schematic.
