Our client approached Hale Engineering with a pressing need: an automated solution to manage their tank-filling process with precision and without the constant worry of overfilling. This was no ordinary challenge—it demanded a bespoke solution that could blend technical ingenuity with operational simplicity, ensuring flawless performance every time.
At Hale Engineering, we designed and delivered a compact control panel that transformed their tank-filling operations. This bespoke system not only operates the pump unit but also monitors and adjusts the filling process dynamically for maximum accuracy and safety.
Here’s how it works:
The control panel allows the client to pre-set the desired fluid volume in litres. With a simple press of a button, the pump kicks into action, filling the tank at full speed. When the fluid level reaches 80%, the system automatically reduces the pump speed, ensuring a controlled and safe fill as it approaches capacity. Finally, once the tank reaches 100%, the filling process stops automatically, removing any chance of overfilling.
For added flexibility, the system also includes a manual override, enabling the client to halt the process at any point if needed.
The Results
The new system has delivered immediate and tangible benefits:
- Improved Efficiency: The fully automated process freed up the client’s staff from the time-consuming task of manual monitoring.
- Precision and Control: The dynamic speed adjustment and automatic stop feature ensured that the exact fluid volume was delivered, every time.
- Enhanced Usability: The intuitive interface made it simple and straightforward to use, integrating seamlessly into their workflow.
This innovative solution didn’t just solve their problem; it redefined how they approach tank-filling operations. The client now enjoys peace of mind, knowing their system works reliably in the background without constant supervision
