The DR1920 Back-Up Pump Control is a compact DIN rail mounted unit used to monitor a  backup level alarm in a tank or wet well and start up to two pumps when a high alarm switch closes. The unit is used as a backup to normal tank / well level controls and is wired to the High-High Alarm switch to prevent overflows in situations where the primary level control system fails.
When the level switch in the tank or well closes, the DR1920 closes a relay that starts Pump 1 and starts an internal Timer 1. When Timer 1 reaches its set time, and the level alarm switch is still closed, Pump 2 is started. Pump 1 and Pump 2 will run until the level alarm switch opens. When the level switch contact opens, Timer 2 is started and both pumps continue to run until Timer 2 reaches its set time. If the alarm switch opens during the Timer 1 interval, Timer 2 is started when the switch opens. Pump 2 is not started and Pump 1 will run until Timer 2 reaches its set time.

The DR1920 also has provisions to alarm on a switch opening.

ALARM SWITCH MONITOR
The DR1920 monitors the open or closed status of a switch contact that is already wired into a control system. This switch may have any of several voltages that are used to control the pump system. In addition, if the primary control system fails, the normal voltages may not be present.

The DR1920 is wired across the alarm switch contacts and uses a unique circuit that measures the impedance present between the switch contacts. When the DR1920 senses a low impedance, it begins its control function, regardless of any absence or presence of voltage across the switch contacts. This feature allows the DR1920 to be wired in parallel across the switch contacts without regard to the existing control system, permitting simple installation in existing systems. For situations where the existing wiring prevents this circuit from being used, an isolated contact must be provided. A second input, which requires an isolated contact or open collector transistor is also provided.

A Reset input is provided to stop the pumps and reset the timers. It requires a contact closure or open collector transistor.

Since the Back Up Pump Control is used only when there is a problem with the primary control, the digital alarm inputs, as well as the reset inputs, are provided to allow the periodic exercising of the system to verify functionality.
