Alarm Monitoring Panel Interface Board

RM20 Diodes PCB Circuit Board

RM20 Alarm Monitoring PCB Circuit Board

The RM20 is an alarming monitoring interface board in an electrical panel for remote monitoring of any fault status. Any fault detected will light up the indicator on the electrical panel.

An alarm can be trigger from this diode board when a fault occurred and is detected. The monitoring personnel can then be notified to resolved the detected fault.

This alarm monitoring board is designed to be compact with neat labeling on the board. There are jumpers for each connection which allows you to configure for the alarm activation. There is also a test connection which allows you to test and check if all the fault indicator is in good working condition.

Panel Alarm Monitoring interface board     Alarming Monitoring Interface Panel Board

RM20 Alarm Monitoring Interface Board

The alarm board is design using diodes which allow power to flow to the panel indicator on the monitoring electrical box. This diode board design helps to reduce the possible massive wiring work for the electrical box installation saving precious time and manpower costing. All diodes are surface which are located on the bottom of the board.

Water Level Detector Electrode System

Water Level Detector Relay Board

Water Level Detector System

water level detector system panel

This is the distribution box for the water level detector system using electrode sensor, design and built by Hong Lam Engineering Pte. Ltd. .

The system consists of a total of 8 electrode sensor for 2 water tank. Each tank has electrode sensors of 4x different length to detect the water level.

When the water is too low, a water pump can be activated to transfer water to/from the tank. An emergency sensor is also position to prevent the water level being too high which can result is water overflow damage. The water level system is completely automated through the electrode sensors and pumps system.

The water level system is also wired up with indicators to alert the user. Remote monitoring can also be implemented so that the status can be monitored from a central control room.

The electronic control boards can be wired accordingly for your own water level control.

Contact Hong Lam Engineering to buy this water level detection system.

Optical Infrared Water Level Sensor

Optical water level sensor work with the principle of light refraction. Light is internally reflected. When in contact with water, the light ray gets refracted out of the sensor. The reduce light intensity through internal reflection indicates the presence of water, hence water level is detected.

The sensor is usually mounted on the side of the tank to detect water level. Water is required to be in contact with the sensor in order for the sensor to work.

Ultrasonic Water Level Sensor

Ultrasonic water level sensor works by emitting a sound wave pulse and listen to the reflected wave (like how a bat detects its surrounding). The time it takes for the reflected sound wave to return determines the water level.

The sensor is usually mounted on the top of a water tank, with the emitter facing downwards. The water surface will reflect the emitted wave back to the sensor. If the sound wave takes a longer time to return, the water level is low. A shorter time for the reflected wave indicates a higher water level in the tank.

The advantage of using an ultrasonic sensor for water level detection is because the sensor has no contact with the water or any other liquid in the tank. There is also no need for any drilling or installation on the water container tank.

Float Switch Water Level Sensor (magnet)

A float switch is a simple and cheap way to implement a flow level detection system. The switch is activated by a float which will get lifted up by the water. This float switch sensor is sealed and waterproof. The lifted float contains a magnet will then activate a reed switch on the wiring end. The activated switch can then be used to trigger or stop motor pumps.

If you need to have a multiple water level indicator, you will need to install more than one of this float switch. This sensor can only sense the water level when the water reaches the level where the sensor is installed.

On the market, there is also a newer advance water level float switch sensor. The working principle is similar, except that this single float sensor contains multiple switch point depending on the water level.

You can detect multiple float level using only on of this advance float switch, which allows you to implement an automatic water level control system, without having to install multiple sensors.

***Check out this page for more information on using a float switch for detecting the water level in a water tank.

Capacitive Water Level Sensor

Capacitive water level sensor works by detecting the change in capacitance on the surface of the sensor. This allows the sensor to be mount outside of the water tank or pipe, without having to be in contact with the water.

Reduce Electrical Wiring for DB Box

Electrical wiring may seem to be a simple job, the scale of the work is typically massive. The wiring job for a home or an office can take days to complete. Any slight wiring improvement can often help save a lot of time and cost.

No More Messy Cables Wiring !!!
Electrical wiring in a mess.

Print your wiring onto a PCB (Print Circuit Board) to

  • reduce Size and Weight.
  • reduce Assembly and the number of Connection.
  • reduce the Wires materials, components.
  • easier to handle.
  • reduce Production Time.
  • reduce Man-hours manpower.
  • reduce your Production Cost.

Distribution Box (Electrical DB Box)

Connecting a wire termination in the DB box may take less than a minute of work. When connecting thousands of wire termination, the work can take days to complete. Reduce and simplify wiring work can significantly improve your efficiency and man-hour cost.

Wiring in the DB box forms the connections between termination to achieve a function. If your wiring function is consistent and repetitive, you may like to consider fabricating a PCB board to reduce the massive connection work. Not only can it save you time in your man-hour, but your wiring will also be neater, saving your significant cost in the long run.

Reduce Wiring Cost

A significant of the project cost can be due to the massive amount of wiring laid across a distance of 100m or more. If your cable is only used for signalling, and not for the purpose of delivering power, there is a chance that your cable can be further reduced, saving you on the cabling cost.
